What it does

Directory visitors often run the same search again and again, hoping something new has appeared. This addon turns that habit into an alert. A user sets up a search on your GeoDirectory site, saves it through a "Save This Search" popup, and the addon watches for new listings that fit. When one is published, the user gets an email. It works on any kind of GeoDirectory directory, from job boards to real estate sites to local business listings.

Users manage their own saved searches and alerts from a simple interface, so they can adjust or remove searches as their needs change. Each alert email includes an unsubscribe link that uses a signed token tied to your site, and saved search URLs are restricted to the current site. The addon also works with the GeoDirectory Advanced Search addon, which lets users build more precise filters before saving a search. GeoDirectory is required.
