CORE

Listings and structured directory data

Use core listing records for the directory inventory, combining content, media, address or coordinate context, and related terms or field data. Builders can define the information a business, property, service, or other listing type needs instead of forcing every record into an unstructured post format.

CORE

Categories, locations, tags, features, and labels

Use categories for subject, locations for geography, tags for keyword connections, features for distinguishing characteristics, and labels for visible listing markers. These core terms help operators organize inventory consistently and give visitors meaningful browse paths before they start a search.

CORE

Custom fields and attributes

Add core custom fields and attributes for vertical-specific details such as amenities, specifications, dates, or contact information. Configure fields for the appropriate listing categories, use them on submission and listing pages, and include them in discovery workflows where the selected field and search configuration support it.

ADD-ON

Advanced Custom Fields and multiple categories

Choose the ACF Addon when a project needs documented Advanced Custom Fields integration, or the Multiple Categories Addon when its category-assignment workflow requires it. These are optional extensions, not requirements for creating and organizing core Listdom listings.

Capability family

User Workflows

Give operators and listing owners a defined path to manage listings and account activity.

CORE

Find businesses and maintain their details

Business Data works with free Listdom. Use separate Webilia Credits to find business records and import selected results as drafts. Review matches and field differences to enrich or refresh existing listings. The initial 20-credit account allocation can cover up to 100 records in supported search usage.

CORE

Front-end dashboard, submission, and listing management

Use the core logged-in dashboard for account-facing directory activity. Listing owners can add, edit, manage, and remove their listings from the front end, giving operators a defined workflow for maintaining submitted inventory.

ADD-ON

Guest submission and independent forms

Select the Pro Addon when a directory needs documented guest submission or an independent add-listing page. These paths require deliberate setup and are not part of the default logged-in dashboard workflow.

ADD-ON

Owner, account, and data operations

Select CSV or Excel for documented data operations, Claim for ownership requests, Connect for listing enquiries, and membership products for their configured account or package workflows. Each is an optional product path chosen for a specific operating need.

Capability family

Engagement

Add the participation paths that help visitors evaluate listings and owners keep records current.

ADD-ON

Reviews and ratings

Select the Reviews Addon when visitor feedback and ratings are useful signals for evaluating listings. This optional workflow helps a directory present documented review activity where it is appropriate to its moderation and participation model.

ADD-ON

Favorites and compare

Use Favorite to let visitors save listings for later consideration, and Compare to present configured listing fields side by side. These optional tools are useful when visitors need to revisit or distinguish several relevant options.

ADD-ON

Claim and inquiry paths

Use Claim for documented ownership and verification requests, and Connect for listing enquiry paths. Both are optional: they help operators direct owner participation and visitor questions into a configured workflow rather than leaving records unmanaged.

Capability family

Monetization

Choose the paid participation, promotion, booking, or transaction workflow that fits your model.

Paid listings, packages, and memberships

Select Membership for listing-side packages, limits, and rules, or choose MemberPress or Paid Member Subscriptions when the project uses those documented membership integrations. Payment and package behavior depend on the selected product and configuration.

ADD-ON

Ads, promotion, and listing visibility

Use Ads for advertising-related workflows, Top Up for its documented visibility-refresh path, and Labelize or Rank for their configured label, promotion, or ordering workflows. Select only the products that fit how a directory manages promoted listings.

ADD-ON

Booking and auction workflows

Choose Booking for reservation workflows with availability, capacity, remaining-slot, and price filters, saved page constraints, and booking-specific sorting. Choose Auction for offer and auction workflows. Configure the selected payment engine when a flow requires payment.

Visual Template Builder

Build reusable single-listing pages, listing cards, and map info windows in a visual editor. Arrange supported elements, adjust their appearance, and preview real listing data across device sizes before publishing and assigning a template.

CORE

Shortcodes, skins, and directory views

Use core shortcodes and skins to place configured listing grids, lists, maps, tables, carousels, search forms, and result views on WordPress pages. Select the view around the way visitors need to browse and refine the directory, not as a fixed layout requirement.

CORE

Single-listing presentation

Configure how listing content, fields, media, contact details, and available action elements appear in a selected single-listing presentation. This keeps the details visitors need to assess a listing connected to its structured record.

INTEGRATION

Builder, theme, and field-integration paths

Choose Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Listdomer Theme, or the ACF Addon only when the project uses that documented builder, theme, or field-integration path. These optional products extend how a team builds or presents the directory; none is a required core dependency.

Capability family

Growth & Scale

Extend a working directory with the selected product, toolkit, app, or theme path.

Free Analytics with Webilia Connect

Connect your Webilia account to get full Stats and Analytics features for free, including with Listdom Free. Install and activate Stats to review listing activity, search demand, and zero-result searches, then use those reports to prioritize directory improvements.

TOOLKIT

Agency workflows and toolkit foundations

Agencies can use Listdom’s configurable data model, presentation paths, and selected extensions across client projects. Choose Directory Toolkit or Real Estate Toolkit as documented scenario foundations, and confirm the exact release contents before describing any toolkit as a bundle.

APP

Networked sites and white-label administration

Select Network App for its documented connected-site model and White Label App for its documented administrative-branding path. These apps suit multi-site or branded delivery scenarios only when their capabilities match the project’s operating model.

APP

Mobile directory path

Listdom Mobile App is represented as a pre-order path in current product data. Confirm its current availability, setup requirements, and delivery fit before presenting it as part of a directory’s visitor or business workflow.

INTEGRATION

Help crawlers interpret public listings

Enable structured data in SEO & GEO settings so eligible public listing and collection pages can include machine-readable details. This gives supported crawlers clearer context about the information on those pages; it cannot control how an external service crawls or ranks them.

INTEGRATION

Choose what your AI visibility feed shares

Optionally publish a public feed for AI discovery, choose which listing fields it contains, and configure discovery files such as llms.txt. The feed exposes only the information you select from eligible public listings; it does not guarantee that a crawler will use it.

INTEGRATION

Let visitors search by meaning

Configure semantic search when visitors should be able to describe what they need in their own words. It is a visitor-facing search workflow, separate from crawler visibility, and requires the supported AI setup.

INTEGRATION

Manage listings through a connected assistant

Use native WordPress abilities to prepare listing drafts, review supported fields, and perform authorized directory tasks through a compatible assistant and separately configured MCP connector. Requires Listdom 6.4.0+ and WordPress 6.9+. Native abilities do not require Webilia Credits; booking and review actions depend on the supported active add-ons.

Features FAQ

Clarify the capability, then select the right product path.

What does Listdom include?

Listdom is the core WordPress directory and listings foundation. It provides structured listing records, categories, locations, tags, features, labels, custom fields, configured search and map presentation, shortcodes, and logged-in front-end listing workflows.

Which features are core, and which require add-ons?

Core Listdom covers the directory foundation, configured discovery and presentation, and logged-in front-end listing workflows. Add-ons are separate products for defined workflows or integrations, including advanced search or maps, reviews, favorites, compare, claims, booking, memberships, data operations, and builders.

Can visitors search by category, location, or listing data?

Listdom documents configurable search forms with keyword, category, location, price, and configured custom-field options. Specialized portal-search or map workflows require the relevant documented add-on and configuration.

Can listing owners submit or manage listings from the front end?

Yes. The core front-end dashboard supports logged-in users managing their listings. Guest submission and independent add-listing forms are documented Pro Addon capabilities that must be selected and configured when needed.

Which workflows can support monetization?

A directory can be configured around documented paid listing, package, membership, advertising, promotion, booking, auction, top-up, label, or claim workflows. The products, payment configuration, and commercial model depend on the project; this page does not state pricing or plan inclusion.

What are apps and toolkits?

Apps are separate products for documented delivery scenarios such as connected sites, white-label administration, or the current mobile path. Toolkits are ready-made scenario foundations for directory or real-estate projects; verify the current release before assuming specific inclusions.

What does AI-ready Directory mean?

An AI-ready Directory can expose structured data on eligible public pages and, if enabled, share selected listing fields through an AI visibility feed configured in SEO & GEO. Semantic search is a separate visitor-facing feature. These options help make information easier to interpret, but do not guarantee crawling, rankings, citations, or AI answers.
