Content Post - Post Dashboard
The Content Post Dashboard allows the Marketplace Owners to configure a central view where content from a specific Content Post Type will render together with a map based search for users to be able to filter locations/categories.
Layout of the Content Post Dashboard
Here is an example of the Content Post Dashboard layout.
1. Project header | The Project Header will display the following items from the Content Post Dashboard configuration for the specified Content Post Type. |
2. Google Map | Display a Google Map view with Locations Pins for every Content Post Item within the selected Categories and Search Result |
3. Search Box | The search box will allow customers to view the map which has a default zoom of up to 100km from the origin longitude and latitude (centered based on the configuration). In this map will display pins of available Posts based on their location.
The address input box can be used to search specifically in an address.
Customers may also use this to filter Content Posts based on the Post Category using the check boxes.
Clicking on the Map Pin, will display the name and thumbnail image of the Content Post. Clicking on this pop up will take the customers to the Content Post Detail View.

4. Latest Posts from each Category | Below the Map View, a carousel will display the Latest Content Posts from each of the Content Post Categories of that Post Type. |
All Content Post Dashboards enabled can be the Content Post Default URL, followed by /dashboard.
