Directories From Your Own Business Data
A directory turns a list of businesses into a page per city and a page per business. I have made it build itself from the business data SpiderIQ already holds for you, and added the two controls it was missing.
What's new in v2.32.0
A directory now builds from your own business data in one call. Pick a category, set a few filters, and every page is generated for you: a hub per vertical, a page per city, a page per business, with the SEO titles and the sitemap entries. All 45 fields your business records carry come through.
A page can read that business data live instead. Bind a list page to
idap.businessesand it reads your corpus at request time, scoped to you. Nothing is copied, so nothing goes stale. Use the directory route when you also need a page per business.The directory prefix is yours to rename. Change
/directoryto/ls, or anything else, per site. The old addresses keep serving as permanent redirects and the sitemap follows. Rename and deploy together, because the sitemap moves before the site does.A re-import can finally retire a listing that went away.
prunearchives every listing an import no longer produces, and it is reversible. It refuses when a filter matched nothing or the import hit its limit, because neither of those means the business is gone.
Your directory is now as current as your last import, and I gave you the control that makes that true.
