The Default Sorting by setting allows you to choose the initial sorting method for your listings. Here are the available options:
Sorting options may vary based on the listing categories and the imported demo.

Options in this setting vary based on the Custom Fileds (listing categories) on your website. You can manage them by following WP Dashboard > Motors Plugin > Custom Fields.
When enabled, this setting binds the WordPress default search option to the Search Results (Inventory) page. So if you search something via WordPress default search the page will be redirected to the Inventory page
The searched elements will be displayed on the WordPress default Search results page:
This option enables a keyword search functionality, allowing users to search for listings using specific words or phrases. This provides a more flexible search experience as users can input any relevant term to find what they are looking for.
Enable this option to display the sorting by Additional listing features.
This setting allows users to filter listings by location. This is especially useful for users looking for vehicles within a specific geographic area.
Sort by Distance - the search results will be sorted based on proximity, showing vehicles closest to the user’s location first. This feature is particularly useful for users looking to find vehicles near them.
Unit of Measurement - this option allows you to define the unit of measurement for distances displayed on the search results page. You can select from available units such as miles or kilometers.
Max Search Radius - this setting allows you to define the maximum radius within which users can search for listings based on location. Users can specify the radius of their search to refine the results.
IMPORTANT
Google Maps API setting should be configured to make the Filter by Location feature work.
