Overview

By default the member search results show:

  • Star Rating (if applicable)
  • Short Description or About Snippet*
  • Phone Number
  • Badges

*When the Short Description is left blank, the site will display a snippet from the About section. If there is no Short Description or About information saved, nothing will display.

Displaying Additional Information

Within the Advanced Settings there are three settings that can be enabled which will display additional member information within the Search Results.

This additional information includes:

  1. Position
  2. Top Level Category / "Category "
  3. Sub Level Categories / "Specialties"

In order to enable these 3 new fields, go to Settings » Advanced Settings and search for the settings shown below.
