Hello, I am very interested in purchasing. But I wonder if I just buy the template, once installed, it will be identical, with all the features seen in the demo? without any extra plugin that costs extra value? I would like to install stayed the same as in the live preview will be? with Google Maps, the property index side of the map, etc?
Hi maisalcarvalho
Thank you for the interest in our theme.
Everything in demo is included with theme options or plugins included. Exception is the IDX menu – which explains that those pages are created to showcase how we created support for dsIDXpress plugin – and that’s paid separately plus has separate features.
The demo has to be setup to look like one of our demos – but we offer free support for demo setup if our help is not enough.
Thank you Anna
sorry, but… what is IDX menu? and what you do? Can you show me where it is in the demonstration, so I can see if it’s important to me?
searches on the main map, and the search result on q shows the map of the real estate side of the grid is the result of this IDX? for he was looking to buy this justamene thee for these features, and iso is the IDX poeei not buy, because to be able pagarpelo IDX
Hi maisalcarvalho
Please see my reply below:

—> This is the idx menu (see IDX in menu) – http://wpresidence.net/ It’s for US realtors who work with MLS and wish to add properties they have already added into MLS in the website. This is possible with a middle plugin like dsIDXpress.

—> No, it’s not a result of IDX. That’s part of theme core features (no plugin needed).
Thank you Anna
Hi Ana – A quick PreSales question – Is there a way that I can change the currency while setting up a property and can use any other payment gateway other than stripe/paypal?
Hi mgrdeepak
Thank you for the comment. Theme default currency can be changes to what you wish. But we have 1 currency default only.
We only have Stripe, PayPal or wire transfer. Any additional merchant would require custom development.
Thank you Anna
Hi, I would very much like to use advanced search type 1 on the front and half-map page search in advanced search page. I understand that is not possible. Is there a way to make it possible? If not, is there a way to create a button to let the user choose between half-map page search and full map?
Hi Strongbeard
Thank you for the comment. We use only 1 search function for search except search type 2 which has different fields when used in other page than search results or half map.
You’d need to create 2 different search management areas and this is not something we could guide you to do because it’s a complex change.
If not, is there a way to create a button to let the user choose between half-map page search and full map?
—> From what I understand, you wish to change between standard and half with a click. I don’t know if this is something we can guide you to do since we never did this change. it’s very possible we can’t since it’s the kind of change we’d have to do to know all the steps. However, if you wish to have my colleagues feedback as I am not sure you can open a ticket in our support and will ask them to follow up.
However, even if you change the design layout, search is still 1.
Thank you Anna
HI Anna,
Is it possible to hide listings Features & Amenities that are not chosen and only show the amenities that the property has, on the property page?
Hi Kuif,
Yes. You can do that. Use this option – http://help.wpresidence.net/assets/images/editattributes.png

Ah! Thanks
I have a problem with the scroll from the browser when I access the latest versions of Safari. What may be due? I attached screenshots. Safari 5.1.10 – It looks good Safari 8.0 – It looks bad

Hi Annapx,
As more people in the comments were confronted with the problem’s of using sub-categories, we also are stuck with the only effectively working option you give us, that is to only use top-level categories (cause of the other drawbacks you explained here).
But we need to split all commercial/business properties from all consumer properties (like ‘homes’, ‘apartments’), and in the search, it looks like everything is piled up all the same in the dropdown, because we cant (effectively) use ‘hotels’/’offices’/’restaurants’ as subcategories for ‘Business properties’ and ‘houses’/’apartments’/’condos’ as subcategories for ‘Consumer properties’.
Since we now have to use all top-level categories, cant you at least setup the category dropdown in the search like this theme does it here. If you click on “Listing type” in the searchblock (on the map, left), you will see that there are clickable categories, but divided by unclickable sections-words in bold in the dropdown… like ‘education’ for example.
In its html code that almost looks like the ‘optgroup’ html code in html dropdowns like explained here: w3schools Optgroup
Such a divider would be a great solution for at least a better user-experience in search dropdowns.
Cant you at least take this into your theme-code?
So that toplevel categories might show in the dropdowns like this:
Consumer properties (unselectable)
- houses (63)
- apartments (35)
Business properties (unselectable)
- offices (56)
- hotels (2)
- industry (4)
Please, your advice
Hi Kuif
Thank you for the comment.
I don’t know if the topic explained this clearly.
The only problem with sub-categories is that you have to make sure you attach only 1 category to each property.
You can show parent and child in dropdowns but you’d have to give up the count that shows next to each category as parent will show 0 properties while child will show the number of properties attached to category (wordpress feature).
Disabling parent category as in example makes sense – but that’s a totally different field example. I don’t know if that’s possible to implement with our theme.
Please open a ticket here http://support.wpestate.org/ and I will ask my colleagues to advise to this question.
Thank you Anna
Hi Anna,
Yes im aware of that (1 category per property)... the thing is that we don’t want to give up the count that shows next to each category. Which forces us to use top-level categories only… cause of the wrong count in parent-categories.
So, thats why im searching for at least something that can (at least) visually divide the commercial and consumer categories from each other.
there also must be a way to load only all commercial categories and show all on the map.. kind of a ‘commercial properties’ listing directory… but then we’d need to use parent-categories, and then the problem with the wrong count still exist, which makes that impossible.
Anyway..thats the problem.
Update:
Found POSSIBLE SOLUTION!! (?)
By the way, i’ve looked into wordpress and it says the way to have parent-categories load the right count (including all child-categories counts), is to use the ‘hierarchical’-parameter and(/or) the ‘pad_counts’-parameter!!! As explained here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_categories and here: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_list_categories/ <= click on ‘Expand full source code’ to see the settings in the function-code; that loads the right count for parent-categories, including all child-categories.Here is another forum tackling this issue, with a solution: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-display-pad_counts-for-hierarchical-taxonomies
Is this a matter of editing a few lines in your WPResidence theme’s code?? Then it’s fixed! Right?
Hi Kuif
Unfortunately I don’t have the technical skills to answer if your proposal works or not. My colleagues have to review this and they have to advise. So please open a ticket here http://support.wpestate.org/ and will ask them to take a look at your findings.
Thank you very much, Anna
Presale question:
Hello, Is there a way in this theme where i can charge monthly, quarterly and yearly from the agents? After a month is over his account should be terminated i.e he cannot add listing from his account until he renews.
Do we have such feature in this theme? If not can you show me a way on how can i achieve that?
Hi viraj24
Thank you for the interest in our theme. Please see my reply below:
Hello, Is there a way in this theme where i can charge monthly, quarterly and yearly from the agents?
—> We have membership (you can test here http://wpresidence.net/front-end-submission/
—> Membership is for listings that user is allowed to submit (not for account created)
—> You can create different membership packages that will show in user dashboard. Each package can have a different expiration date.
After a month is over his account should be terminated i.e he cannot add listing from his account until he renews.
—> With our membership – after the month is over (all his listings will be set to EXPIRED). His account will reset to Free Membership (if he used the free listings he can’t use again. And he will have to buy a package to submit. But he can still login.
Thank you Anna
Hello, One more presale question:
Can we set category for the agents? For eg: refer this url
http://www.trulia.com/directory/Hi Viraj I am sorry. We don’t have this. Thank you, Anna
Any way in which we can display? Any customisations?
Hi Viraj
Unfortunately if you need agents search as in that link you’d have to contract a custom developer to make such customization for you. It’s not an easy change. You need a skilled developer in wordpress coding.

Hi, Pre Purchase question:
1.- It possible to add a custom date and search the properties by a exact custom date.
2.- The properties list can be order by the custom date(no the published date)
Thank you
Hi monacorx
Thank you for the comment. Please see my reply below:
1.- It possible to add a custom date and search the properties by a exact custom date.
—> I don’t know if this is what you wish, but what we can offer is give you the possibility to add a custom field date type. And in search you can use that field to look for properties date bigger or date smaller than that date. But it’s 1 date per property.
Example – http://wpresidence.net/
2..- The properties list can be order by the custom date(no the published date)
—> No, sorry. This is not possible.

—> Looks like you missed to close or open code correctly. I don’t know which version you have. You can copy the original code from the original theme you downloaded from theme forest (same page template). If you don’t have that original version – please open a ticket here – support.wpestate.org, tell me what original php template you wish and from what version and I will send it to you.
- another question : is there any way to connect this website with another web so i can add all data in this web here and the other web will receive by” xml link” ...
—> I don’t understand what you wish to import, but there is no such auto system. This implies creating something custom (API does auto import or export) and this tool would have to be built based on the technical documentation of the other website. It’s a very complex change. You’d need to work with a developer who has experience with the 3rd party technical documentation you wish to work with (to know if it’s possible in first instance).
—> In our theme clients use WP ALL IMPORT to import and xml orcvs feed. They have a free addon for WP Residence theme.
—> I know they have a beta export tool. You may be able to export an xml feed (didn’t test to know for sure). But if it works or not, this has to be tested.
regarding translation is there any link to blog , post or forum can explain how to do it but in simple and easy way … most of the posts are really complicated .
—> If you need to translate the theme to another language – please see this help chapter – http://help.wpresidence.net/#!/translation We added images so it’s easier to follow.

Hi Anna and thank you for your kind reply ,
I don’t need to import actually i want to export my data to another websites , i have 3 websites connected to CRM , so I’m adding all the data to CRM software and CRM distributing to other website by link called XML link then I’m getting all the information on my all websites.. i wonder if i can do the same from this website instead of the CRM . i’m using Wp Residence 1.11. Thank you
Hi houssams
We don’t have such an export system (XML link). As said above, this is the beta export plugin I know of https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-all-export/
It can export custom posts + custom fields. But I don’t know if it will work. Has to be tested. If you do the test and you wish to follow up with me on results, please let me know how it went.

Hi Anna, I have some questions.
Question 1: I have problem changing the border color of the menu. This is what the menu currently looks like https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0SujkSepiegY21xUS1MRnhlcDQ/view?usp=sharing When I change the border color in wpresidence option, it affects the rest of the page. However in the your Demo http://demo5.wpresidence.net/homepage-v2-demo-1/, the menu has a softer shaded color for menu border.
Question 2: When using the theme slider, is it possible to change the position of widgetbox (showing property infomation)? e.g. move it from right to left.
Question 3: When using the membership package, I will like to have users click on a button on the home page to buy a specific package. For instance I expect that visiting a package e.g. (demo.site.com/package/gold) will show a page via which they can pay for such. Right now, the page is empty, am not sure how to get it to display the membership package information and payment info.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Again Anna, I can’t find the new Stripe recurring subscription cancel button in User Dashboard. Do I have to do something special to have it displayed?
Question 5: How can I change the style of the feature icon on featured properties?
Question 6: When I changed the Advanced search type to TYPE 2 (while using theme slider) The advance search shows below the slider. I would like to have it sit on the slider.

Use this CSS and adjust it to your colors:
#access ul ul {
border-left: 1px solid #404852!important;
border-right: 1px solid #404852!important;
border-bottom: 1px solid #404852!important;
border-top: 1px solid #404852!important;
border-bottom-left-radius: 4px;

box-shadow: 0px 2px 0px 0px rgba(64, 72, 82, 1);
}
Question 2: When using the theme slider, is it possible to change the position of widgetbox (showing property infomation)? e.g. move it from right to left.

—> Such a page can be created with Ultimate Addons shortcodes – but people would still have to register to actually buy a package and upgrade. This option can work only for registered users.
Examples from their website http://ultimate.brainstormforce.com/price-box/
All these are in the ultimate addons plugin included in the theme.

Hi samup4web,
Regarding:
I can’t find the new Stripe recurring subscription cancel button in User Dashboard. Do I have to do something special to have it displayed?
—> You must have 1.11 at least and buy a recurring package. How to add stripe membership help -http://help.wpresidence.net/#!/stripe
Question 5: How can I change the style of the feature icon on featured properties?
—> You must edit the image unit.png from css-images folder and replace via FTP. You can make this overwrite in main theme or child theme. Starting 1.11.3 (now available for download) we include the css-images we modified for our demos as well They are in demo_content folder.
Question 6: When I changed the Advanced search type to TYPE 2 (while using theme slider) The advance search shows below the slider. I would like to have it sit on the slider.
—> You have the option to keep search visible (no). Make this yes – Help http://help.wpresidence.net/#!/advsearchfields
Thank you Anna
Hi again Anna, Thanks for a speedy response.
Regarding Question 2, My question is still not addressed. I already have the shortcode for the pricebox in place. When a registered user clicks on a “order now” button, it loads demo.site.com/package/gold and this is EMPTY, but I suppose the stripe payment components should be on the link’s page.
Hi samup4web
The actual payment link redirect is integrated only in our user dashboard. If you need to integrate the same behavior somewhere else – I don’t know if we can guide you to make this code yourself. For sure it’s not a link url, but an actual JS trigger implemented according to Stripe API.
I can ask my colleagues to give you the details of where we have now the implementation for the payment button link and hopefully you can use the info to modify the theme further.
Please open a ticket here support.wpestate.org for this.
Thank you Anna
Is it possible to remove home search from home page? I can’t tell if it’s a widget. Thanks so much!!!
Hi realitasgroup1
Thank you very much for the interest and comment.
I am not sure which demo you are asking about. If you mean this search http://i.imgur.com/s30Xfl9.png
You have these options:
a. Keep it closed by default (example – http://demo2.wpresidence.net/) b. Not show it on header image/slider and then use this header for the page on homepage
Hope this helps. Thank you, Anna
Hi Anna,
I have another question regarding the mobile appearance of demo2.wpresidence.net. How do I eliminate the white header in mobile theme after I disable the user login menu header appearance?

Hi WP Residence Team, Recently I have purchased template named “WP Residence – Real Estate WordPress Theme” and have followed all the steps mentioned in installation video “http://wpestate.org/install-set-demo-content-wp-residence/”.
Even after that we have one missing section which has content as : Valuable Real Estate Tools & Info!
With all the powerful features we have developed, WP Residence would make one of the best buys you have ever made. We know you will love this as much as we do!
Could you please help with steps as how do I add this missing segment in my website?
Thanks
Hi plotlisting
Thank you for the comment. That section was added after demo export, when we included ultimate addons.
You can give me wp-admin and I can setup the homepage updated with the banner. You can give me the wp-admin access in our client support system which is private http://support.wpestate.org/
Or you can copy the updated homepage from here http://wpestate.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/homepage-main-demo.txt Copy the code in Classic Editor – TEXT mode. Then edit with visual composer.

Hi Avihouse,
Regarding

—> Featured listing status applies for a property independent in which category it’s included. —> BUT in lists these properties will always be listed first. So if a client searches by Manhattan and he gets to results page, featured properties based on this search criteria is listed first. So what you wish happens. —> Same in the shortcodes where you can specify category, action, city or area ids(s).

HI Anna,
1. If I set frontend registered users as agent, it will automatically create agent as a custom post. What if the user is added through admin dashboard or through any third party plugin, will it automatically create agent post too? If not, and I have to create the agent post manually, how do I link between the user and the corresponding agent post? So every time the profile is updated through the frontend, it will be also updating the agent post like as from the frontend registration.
2. What happens with the listings after the membership expired? Will it be automatically deleted or ..?
Thanks.
Hi Avihouse
It’s nice to hear from you again. Hope you’re well. Please see my reply below:
1. If I set frontend registered users as agent, it will automatically create agent as a custom post.
—> Correct.
What if the user is added through admin dashboard or through any third party plugin, will it automatically create agent post too?
—> Unfortunately not. I can tell you the function that does this in front end. If the plugin you use to import supports it and if you’re comfortable making wordpress changes to add this admin (but these may be overwritten during updates) you can try it. It’s here – http://wpestate.org/forums/topic/function-register-users-agents-front-end-register-form/
If not, and I have to create the agent post manually, how do I link between the user and the corresponding agent post? So every time the profile is updated through the frontend, it will be also updating the agent post like as from the frontend registration.
—> Manually creating agent implies manually adding/updating profile info. Unfortunately it’s the only way. —> Also this means you add the property to Agent Responsible and to User responsible in admin – edit property.
2. What happens with the listings after the membership expired? Will it be automatically deleted or ..?
—> Expired listings will change status to expired. They are no longer published in front end, but they exist in database. Admin can see these properties in admin – properties – expired.
—> User can see these expired properties in user dashboard.
—> If he decides to renew a package he can resubmit for approval expired listings with 1 button, but only as many listings as his current active package allows him to.
