I installed a new WP install to use the included theme in Directory Plugin.
It's here: http://searchenginemarketing.net/directory
My current problem / question is the signup links: The one in the top navigation menu works fine. However, the signup graphic below the "what can we find for you" results in a 404 error.
How can I address this?

I can see that in the source code and I'll let the developers know about it. As a workaround, you could use the following.
On line 4 of directory\themes\default\includes\components\actionbuttons.php you'll see this: <div id="submit-site"><a href="<?php echo get_bloginfo('url') . '/checkout/'; ?>" class="button">Sign Up</a></div>
You can change that line to the following: <div id="submit-site"><a href="<?php echo get_bloginfo('url') . '/directory/checkout/'; ?>" class="button">Sign Up</a></div>
And that should get the signup button to have the same link as the menu item.
I am not interested in the beta directory. I need a solution.
the Beta represents a complete re-working of this plugin. It's truly a much better solution. The existing version will be replaced with the beta once testing is complete.
Despite my own considerations, I tried the beta and the Sign Up error persists. The message reads "This feature is currently disabled by the system administrator." Member dlittle800 addressed the same concern within the Help Forum but like me, has not yet been given a solution.
I purchased the Directory plug-in believing it would actually do what it's designed to do. I'd much rather not pursue the beta version because I already purchased the original, I desire a production-ready program, and am not interested or equipped to tweek a beta. I've been able to successfully tweek Directory to my specs but can't seem to get past the Sign-Up issue. The beta version, although better in many ways, introduces far more issues than I am equipped to deal with.
I simply want a Directory that works. Please give me direct instruction regarding a solution.
That's actually a different error message. That would be due to registrations not being enabled on your site. Could you please visit Settings > General and ensure you have registrations enabled as illustrated in the following?
I made the corrections within Directory v2 as illustrated. I made what I thought to be the proper user allowances via Listings > Settings > Capabilities. Subscriber (the default role for users) can View, Add, Edit, and Delete Listings. I am getting the SAME error message despite making the recommended changes. Am I following the correct procedure? What steps should I take to make registration work properly?

Hi guys,
I am having the same prob, is there an upgrade yet as I cannot find the line you are talking about to change.

Hi RobT. We had a similar problem this week after downloading this plugin, and discovered that the directory being called (checkout) was wrong.
So all you need to do is:
1. as DavidM said, open this file:
directory\themes\default\includes\components\actionbuttons.php
2. you will see the word 'checkout' on the 4th line. If you can't see it, do a search for 'checkout'.
3. replace that word with 'sign-up'
That's it. Hope it helps.

@bluex2 Thanks for your help.

@everyone - I'm leaving this ticket open, but it should be sorted shortly with the update for the Directory Plugin Ivan mentioned.
Thanks!

Just commenting here to let folks know that we've brought in a new developer who'll be handling the Directory plugin.
Apologies for the delay as he acclimates himself to the new code. He'll be looking at this one and a few others and have updates as soon as possible.
Thanks!

Hiya guys,
Just wanted to update you on this. The directory plugin is being worked on and we're hoping to get that out in the next few weeks :)

Hi:
@David @bluex2 I appreciate your options but editing the source code did not work for me. I received the same error message.
I am not interested in the beta directory. I need a solution.

Hiya Dominiqui,
the Beta represents a complete re-working of this plugin. It's truly a much better solution. The existing version will be replaced with the beta once testing is complete.

FYI: There is no charge for registration.
Also, I noticed dlittle800 has the same unresolved concern since August 9. Here’s the link: http://premium.wpmudev.org/forums/topic/new-directory-plugin-version-20-beta
Please advise.
