Description
Directorist Post Your Need is a WordPress plugin extension for Directorist-powered directory sites that lets users share service requests directly from the directory. It solves the common problem of fragmented inquiries by giving buyers a clear, structured way to describe what they need. Instead of contacting individual listings manually, users can post their request and enable the relevant service provider(s) to reach out.

With flexible settings for how requests are presented, it also helps you keep your directory UX consistent with your theme and layout.
