Hi,

This can be done, but with customization. If you’re familiar with coding or have a developer, we can provide general guidance on how to achieve that. Alternatively, you may want to consider hiring a freelancer for custom development: Customize your website | HivePress.

Also, thank you for the feature suggestion. We added it to the roadmap.

Hi,

If you’re familiar with coding, please try overriding one of the request template parts via a child theme (by copying it to the child theme folder, for example copy “hivepress-requests/templates/request/view/block/request-title.php” file to “child-theme-folder/hivepress/request/view/block/request-title.php”), and this way you can customize it by adding new code. Personal requests can be checked this way:

if($request->get_vendor__id() && $request->get_status()==='private') {
    echo esc_html($request->get_vendor__name());
}

For example, you can add this code at the end of the title template part code that you copied to the child theme. It should display the vendor name, but please note that it may require further styling, adding a link etc. as this is a simple text output.

Hope this helps
