I was wondering if you can add inventory feed support? Thanks
Yes, you can already import an inventory feed via XML or CSV. Thanks for the question 
Thank You!
Hi! This is a presale question: Is it possible to mark a car listing as a Featured Car? My client will want to offer specials on certain vehicles.
Thanks! (This theme looks wonderful!)
Thanks for the kind words! Yes it is, we have a custom ‘badge’ feature where you can set a badge with any text you want (ie Featured) and any color you want.
Excellent, thank you!
Hi, I made a site using your template and everything was fine but all of a sudden the slider has stopped showing on the home page. I really need to get this sorted asap, any ideas on how to fix it? http://wessexmotors.co.uk/
When you edit the Home page, under Page Options > Slideshow do you still have your slider selected?
Hi, Great theme. However I am wondering how I change the size of the header bar without changing it size on mobile view. Also the menu and image Like this -> http://prntscr.com/77eg1j Thank you !
Use this code and place it inside your Theme Options > Custom Styling > Custom CSS and then change the margins to suit whatever you want:
body header .bottom-header .navbar-default .navbar-nav>li>a {
padding: 38px 15px 20px 15px !important;
}
It is the same code for the media query for whatever mobile resolutions you want, but you can just leave it as-is for for mobile to keep it the same size.

Hi, does the automotive theme support a facebook page plugin, including post view etc. f.e. https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/page-plugin
We haven’t tested this specific plugin. We can’t guarantee support for every third party plugin, but I don’t see any reason it wouldn’t work off hand
Hello,
My fancybox stopped working when we switched from our dev site to our main url. I have installed a different fancy box plugin thinking that would resolve the issue but it has not. Please advise on how to get things working again.
Thanks!
Please open a Support Ticket with your website details so we can have a look at this for you. There is no reason the fancybox should stop working on a live site vs a local site that I can think of off hand. We don’t support alternative plugins, but we would be happy to help you get the included one working. Thanks!
When using WooCommerce, if you create a Category link which displays all products within that Category, how do you set the Header Image for that particular page? As its not a page but a Category link there is no where to select the header image making the header area appear black.
Thanks, Chris
You will either need to setup a page that only displays those products using a WooCommerce shortcode, or use the Theme Options > Header Settings > Default Header to set the black ones to a single image. Thanks for the question
Hi How do I fix the logo in order to show me the whole Item Brand? And as for writing changes in the child theme in style (I need to enlarge the display of the logo on the site Home page-header navbar-brand img.)
Thank you
First you would have to increase the height of the menu bar / header to be however big you will need it (so the logo doesn’t over lap the background):
body header .bottom-header .navbar-default .navbar-nav>li>a {
padding: 38px 15px 20px 15px !important;
}
Next you can increase the size of your logo height to whatever you want:
header .navbar-brand img {
height: 60px !important;
width: auto;
}
And How do I fix the logo in order to show me the whole Item Brand?
That is the code on the bottom, I’m assuming you mean ‘enlarge the logo’ when you say ‘fix the logo’...? If not please provide us with a URL so we can see what you are talking about.
Send me your mail I’ll send for a preview. The site is in construction would have not seen it.
Thank you
I have sent you a ticket 3864
Perfect, we will get to it shortly!
when i want to set a link for the button which i added through visual composer its saying undefined url. Screenshot is here, http://i59.tinypic.com/29y1bic.png
Sample Page is Istanbul Airport Transfer Service: http://www.theistanbultransportation.com/pricing-tables/
This was a known bug in the version of Visual Composer you are using, you just need to update the Visual Composer plugin to the latest version: http://support.themesuite.com/?knowledgebase=updating-visual-composer
i have just updated it but it doesnt work again.
Clear your browsers cache
ok fix it. thnx for all and super fast response.
No problem!
If i try to change the contact email in Contact Settings to this format: Sender Name <sender@example.com> i get “you must provide a valid email for this option.”
is there another way to change ‘WordPress’ as the senders name in emails?
Probably the easiest way is using this: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-simple-mail-sender/
Thank you for the great theme!
Let me one question.
The character is garbled If you enter the Japanese (multi-byte) in the listing category.
Is there a solution?
Yes, we have a created a special version that is optimized for multibyte characters that has not be released yet. If you want to open a Support Ticket we can provide you with it. Thanks!
I just had a simple question. I am looking to remove the “fa fa-arrows-alt button_icon” from the flip cards so only the link icon remains. I would also like to change the link icon to something else as well. Can you please tell me which file I would find this code?
Thank you so much! Love this theme!
For sure, the flipping card shortcode is located in the wp-content/plugins/automotive/shortcodes.php. Thanks for the kind words!
Hi, I bought the theme and am loving it so far! I’d just like a little help with design related things. Perhaps you could help advise what code I need to edit (or insert into Custom CSS) to do the following:
1) To stop the toolbar from disappearing when scrolling?
2) To make the footer height smaller?
3) To add more phone numbers in the toolbar?
4) To remove the header image from every single page (like in listings you can disable it)?
And perhaps more of a challenge:
1) The format of the inventory page – I really need the emphasis to be on the cars, so ideally I’d like a simplified version of what exists now. Larger images of the cars across 3 columns, not 4. No border or containment box needed for the image, only below – two boxes with grey background and no rounded corners, with regular size text that appears something like this:
IMAGE OF CAR
TITLE OF CAR
PRICE | KM’s
Anything that gets close to this is what I need.
2) The listing pages with individual car details on – I’d like to incorporate the name of the vehicle and the price into the right hand side vehicle description table (perhaps separated using lines), thus pushing everything up so the image of the car takes precedence.
3) Edit the gallery size, making it perhaps 10-15% smaller. Also, is it possible for all images of a car to be shown below the main, rather than the current whereby just 4 are visible before having to ‘scroll’ across with the arrow?
I appreciate this may actually be a lot of editing here and you may not have time, but if you can help in any way at all it would be appreciated greatly. I’ve spent hours searching for solutions in the code but it’s just beyond me!
Thanks in advance for your reply and keep up the good work, it really is a fantastic theme!!

Hey Matt,
Thank you for your comments! I think from what you have said you understand that the majority of this is customization work, which is not included in our free theme support (which is primarily for bugfixes and problems relating to our products). I hope you can appreciate we can’t accommodate these types of requests for the $30 we make off each theme sale (which mostly just goes towards covering the 6 months of unpaid time we spent developing the product). All that being said (and as you can see from our responses to other comments) we do try and help people out where we can if it doesn’t take a lot of time, so I will do the best I can here:
1.) The <header> element moves up when the affix-top class is added so you can (using CSS) tell it to stay at 0 instead of moving up.
2.) The height is dependent on the contents, but you can reduce the margins using CSS if that is the look you are going for.
3.) You would need to edit the wp-content/themes/automotive/header.php, I would recommend moving it into the Child Theme so you don’t lose your customizations when you go to update the theme.
4.) You can choose not to set one while editing the page. You will find this when you go to Pages and edit the page on the right hand sidebar in a box labelled Page Options.
All of your other requests would take quite a bit of customization that we can’t cover here. Thanks for your comments and kind words, I hope this helps!
Hi and thanks for such a rapid reply! Your free support is exceptional and in retrospect, I feel I was much too rude in asking for so much personalized help.
I figured out a few things since posting and your advice has helped, but I really am stuck on trying to keep the toolbar from disappearing – may you suggest what code will work in the custom CSS, as everything I have tried has not been successful?
Also, I’m having the same problem with the black border around all pictures – I added the code previously suggested in other comments but this does not solve the problem?
Many, many thanks again, and I will surely look out for any of your future themes you may release!!!
Regards,
Matt
Hey Matt,
Place these snippets of code in your Theme Options > Custom Styling > Custom CSS or Child Theme style.css:
1.) body header.affix {
top: 0 !important;
}
2.) body .page-content img, body .entry-content img {
border: none;
}
Thanks!
Aha, fantastic! Thank’s for such a quick reply again, that code worked a charm. I’d missed out ’!important’... slaps self
Many thanks and will highly recommend you to others!
Been there many times… Thanks for the comments Matt, we always appreciate a 5-star rating on ThemeForest if you feel it deserving..
I indeed feel it deserving, rating submitted!
Awesome, thanks!
Hi. Could you tell me how i need to edit the header.php and customize it to show the social media icons at the header like the footer? Thanks!

Hello, pre-sales question here. Are any of your customers using this theme for an RV Dealership? Are there any major obstacles in doing so? We have a dealer management system which can export an XML feed. Are the fields for your vehicle post types configurable? Anything else I should be thinking about? Thanks in advance.
Yes we have had probably close to 100 dealers use it for RVs/campers/trailers. Everything is fully customizable including categories/filters/fields and it is very easy to use. We include a CSV and XML import option as well. There is no reason I can think of that you would have any issues, but certainly if you did you would be able to open a support ticket. Thanks for your interest, please let us know if you have any other questions!
how do you edit the mpg fuel etc im setting this up for a party bus company and need know were to look in code etc. http://sqlimos.com/beta/listings/30-passenger-party-bus/
You can change most of it (text and image) from the admin panel as it looks like you have discovered. The wording ‘Fuel Efficiency Rating’ you can easily change using the translation strings in the languages folder of the theme and plugin using Poedit. This way you can still update the theme and plugin and not have your customizations overwritten
i cannot find that term in the languages folder
It is located in the wp-content/plugins/automotive/languages/listings-en_US.po file on Line 3498
Hi,
I wish to purchase this theme. Does this theme come with an easy to use theme options admin panel to allow colour and fonts changes for all aspects of the website?
thanking you
Yes it does Thanks for your interest
Hi there, thanks for you awesome theme.
I have two questions:
First is about theme speed. I see it loads a little slow compare to other themes I’ve tried in the same hosting. I’ve run the P3 performance plugin and it reveals that Automotive plugin and Visual Composer consume a lot of resources. Any ideas on how to make it faster?
Second is I’d like to know if there’s a way to get rid of one the listing tabs for example “Location” without touching the core. I just don’t want to show that tab and don’t want to leave the message “No location available”.
Thank you
We have already optimized our plugin and theme quite well, but we have had quite a few people using Yoast SEO with good success as well. I am not convinced it would make it run faster, maybe a bit with minification, but typically it all boils down to your line speed and how fast your web server is (ie you would get way more bang putting SSDs in your server then you will by adding additional plugins trying to squeeze a tiny bit of performance out of an already well optimized product).
Regarding the Location tab, you can easily Add/Remove/Change them in the admin panel under Listing Options > Inventory Page. Just delete the ‘Location’ one and save it. Thanks for the questions!
