Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about NonStop Directory for WordPress.

Is NonStop Directory a WordPress plugin or a SaaS platform?

NonStop Directory is a 100% native WordPress plugin. It installs directly on your WordPress website and saves your directory data in your own database. You own the content, the listings, the user accounts, and the brand completely.

Do business owners need access to the WordPress admin panel?

No. Business owners manage everything through a front-end dashboard on your site. They can edit business details, upload images, manage business hours, post deals, write articles, view lead inquiries, and review performance analytics without ever seeing wp-admin.

Can I pre-populate my directory before business owners sign up?

Yes! You can bulk import business listings via CSV or manually publish profiles marked as “Unclaimed.” When real business owners discover their profile, they click “Claim This Business” to submit an ownership verification request.

Does NonStop Directory take a cut of my listing sales or memberships?

Zero percent. You keep 100% of your earnings. NonStop Directory is self-hosted software sold on transparent annual or lifetime licenses. We never charge transaction fees or take platform cuts.

What happens when a free trial period expires?

The listing simply transitions to your configured free or basic listing tier. The business listing remains live in your directory, but premium modules like the extended gallery, article publishing, and deal engine are paused until they upgrade. No listings are deleted.

Can I customize the badges and business criteria?

Yes. You have complete control over verification badges and feature criteria such as Pet Friendly, Family Friendly, Open Weekends, Mobile Service, Spanish Spoken, Accepts Walk-ins, and any bespoke taxonomy tags you define.

How does the business blogging feature work?

Paid tier members can write and submit expert articles directly from their front-end dashboard. You can configure automatic publishing or require admin review before publication. Each article links directly back to the author’s directory profile.

Is it compatible with my current WordPress theme and page builder?

Yes. NonStop Directory works cleanly with modern WordPress block themes (Full Site Editing) as well as Elementor, Divi, Bricks, and standard classic themes. It utilizes clean template parts and shortcodes for modular integration.

What SEO benefits does NonStop Directory offer out of the box?

Every business listing generates clean permalinks, semantic schema.org LocalBusiness structured data, Open Graph tags for social sharing, and automated sitemap integration. The built-in blogging and deals modules also create recurring indexing opportunities.

Do you provide support and documentation for setup?

Yes! Every license includes extensive step-by-step documentation, starter CSV templates for bulk imports, video tutorials, and dedicated email support from our engineering team.
