In this tutorial you will add a listing from the front end of your site, the way a business owner does in WB Listora. You need the free WB Listora plugin, installed and active.

Fill in the basics. Type the listing title. Choose its category. The list holds the categories of the type you picked. Add tags, pressing Enter after each one, and tick the features the place offers.
