 * Hi,
 * An excellent and very tasteful app.
 * Unless I have not found my way around the plugin yet, the following items, the
   staple features of all classified apps. are missing:
 * – Ability to set the fields to be shown on listing page; i.e. Category and Author
   –
   Ability to filter by the Category on the main listing page – Photo editing feature
   to select the area to be displayed.
 * Any guidance would be appreciated.
 * Regards,
    Amir

 * Hi,
    1. i am not sure what do you mean? The Category and Author are actually 
   displayed on the listing page, unless you would like to show them on page with[
   adverts_list]? If so then you would need to customize the list-item.php file 
   [https://wpadverts.com/documentation/child-themes-and-templates/](https://wpadverts.com/documentation/child-themes-and-templates/)
 * 2. this you can do using Custom Fields extenion [https://wpadverts.com/extensions/custom-fields/](https://wpadverts.com/extensions/custom-fields/)
   or by using the Search By Category snippet [https://github.com/simpliko/wpadverts-snippets/blob/master/search-by-category/search-by-category.php](https://github.com/simpliko/wpadverts-snippets/blob/master/search-by-category/search-by-category.php)
 * 3. the photo editing is enabled for logged in users only, if you would like anyone
   to edit the images, then you can go to wp-admin / Classifieds / Options / Core/
   Gallery panel and in “Image Editor Capability” select an empty value. [https://wpadverts.com/documentation/custom-image-sizes/](https://wpadverts.com/documentation/custom-image-sizes/)

 * Hi,
 * Re. item 2 in above, in order to add the Category name and Author name to the
   main listing page, what code do I need to use?
 * Thank you,
    Amir

 * You can get the values for category and author using the code below
 *     ```
       <?php echo esc_html( get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), "adverts_author", true ) ); ?>
       <?php $advert_category = get_the_terms( get_the_ID(), 'advert_category' ) ?>
       <?php echo esc_html( $advert_category[0]->name ) ?>
       ```
