Using K2 as an information directory? was created by Web Guy
Hi All, is anyone using K2 as an information directory? I am currently using SobiPro, but I am finding the learning curve to create a display template just too much.

Yes, K2 would be a bit of work, but would look exactly the way I wanted it to at least.

Displaying the information and laying it out would be easy. I am more interested in, on the "category listing page" displaying custom fields as well?

As Example, a directory of shops.

In the listing page, I'd like to be able to show say...

Shop name Suburb/city Phone Number etc, etc
Short description (Underneath the above)

Is that possible on the one line and then the short intro text underneath?

Looking for ideas.

K2 is very flexible regarding the layout and templates.

You can customize the layout of the category and item pages as you like.

Just read about template overrides, and you will get it.
