We've shipped a major update packed with features to help you build richer, more customizable, and more discoverable directory websites.
🎨 Add SVG Icons to Custom Fields
Custom fields are now more visual.
You can assign SVG icons to any custom field, making your listing pages easier to scan and giving important information more visual emphasis. Whether you're displaying pricing, features, integrations, or contact details, icons help improve readability and user experience.
🔒 Paid Community Access
Turn your directory into a membership business.
You can now create paid communities where users purchase access before viewing exclusive listings or content. This makes it easy to monetize premium directories, member-only resources, curated databases, or private communities—all without additional tools.
✍️ Manage Your Blog Inside Your Directory
Your directory is now a content platform.
Create, edit, and organize blog posts directly inside your Row.so workspace. Publish SEO-friendly articles alongside your listings to attract organic traffic, educate visitors, and improve search rankings—all managed from one place.
🗺️ Map & Local Directory Mode
Perfect for local businesses, restaurants, stores, coworking spaces, events, and travel directories.
Enable Map Mode to display listings on an interactive map, helping visitors discover nearby places visually. Build location-based directories without needing external mapping solutions.
🎯 Custom Category Icons
Every category deserves its own identity.
Assign unique icons to each category to make navigation clearer and your directory more engaging. Categories become easier to recognize while creating a more polished browsing experience.
📍 Custom Map Icons by Category
Take map customization even further.
Each category can now display its own marker icon on the map. Restaurants, cafés, hotels, coworking spaces, attractions, and more can all have distinct map markers, making your directory easier to explore at a glance.
🌍 Dynamic SEO OG Images
Every page now gets its own optimized Open Graph image automatically.
Listing pages, categories, blogs, and other directory pages generate dynamic OG images designed for social sharing and improved SEO. Your links look more professional when shared on X, LinkedIn, Facebook, Discord, Slack, and other platforms.
