The Franchise Manager allows users to submit listings for chains of businesses or franchises faster and allows directory owners to monetize those listings in a smarter way.

== Description ==

The Franchise Manager allows users to submit listings for chains of businesses or franchises faster and allows directory owners to monetize those listings in a smarter way.

After entering the main listing for a new Chain, fields of the Add Listing form can be locked. This way you can pre-populate most fields but allow the address, telephone number and email address to be entered separately for all branches of the chain. When the main listing is edited, locked fields are edited for all branches too.

== Installation ==

1. Upload 'geodir_franchise' directory to the '/wp-content/plugins/' directory
2. Activate the plugin "GeoDirectory Franchise Manager" through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
3. Go to WordPress Admin -> GeoDirectory -> Settings -> Franchise Manager and customize behaviour as needed
4. For detailed setup instructions, visit the official [Documentation](https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/franchise-manager-add-on/?utm_source=docs&utm_medium=installation_tab&utm_content=documentation&utm_campaign=readme) page.
