CM Business Directory Payments (CMBD Add-On) - Suggesting a Business


Adding a New Business - Business Community Part

Back to User Guides

To explain in detail how the payment for suggesting businesses works, we'll describe the full path.

To add a business, users can go to the Suggest a Business page. This URL is available at the top of the Admin Dashboard → CM Business Directory → Settings page.

Users can then input information about the business, just like in the CM Business Directory plugin. 

The email entered when suggesting a business is the one that receives the email with a link to pay for the listing (if the user is not logged in). Users are required to fill in the mandatory fields Title, Description, and Email.

Business Payment Part

So far we haven't seen any effect from the CM Business Directory Payments Add-on, this is the time when it kicks in.

After inputting their information and clicking "suggest a business," users will see a notification. This notification can be changed in the Payment Labels settings in the plugin.

The user can then go to their email and find a notification that includes the link to pay for the listing. This email can be customized in the Payments settings.

After clicking on the link, the user is brought to a checkout page with the item name, price, and payment options. They just need to input their information and click on the purchase button to pay for a listing.

After they purchase a listing, an email is sent with an activation link or the option to add an activation code directly to the listing activation page.

This is what the second option looks like:

Labels related to activating a listing can be edited in Payment Labels settings. 

Alternatively, the admin can add listings to the back-end and allow businesses to claim the listing.
