This theme seems to have serious issues with regard to responsiveness and gmap functions on mobile devices. The node locations on Gmap is not responsive at all on a Samsung Note 4, for example. There might be other incompatibilities.
What is more, the Author has disabled the Google Mobile Friendliness test for the Demo version for some unknown reason.
Steps to reproduce this error:
1. Go to the following URL:
https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/mobile-friendly/2. Copy+Paste the following URL of the Demo of this theme into the provided box:
http://demo.symphonythemes.com/drupal7/bizreview/3. Please click on Analyze and kindly inform me if you get a positive result so that if I am wrong, I could be able to report that here.
4. Please also check with different devices. I may be wrong.
5. Beware

I sincerely hope that the theme author resolves these errors and I can go for a Drupal solution for my (niche) Directories instead of a misleading, useless, stupid, or nonsense WP theme.
Kindest Regards.
I changed the robot.txt file to allow crawling for a while. You can test the mobile friendliness of the theme.
It is mobile friendly.
I have to deny all crawlers because this is a demo site. Googlebot may crawl the sample content and lower my domain ranking.
So I will turn off crawling in the next 12 hours. Pls feel free to do the test you desire.
I have checked both on the Google Mobile Friendly test and my mobile device now and yes, the theme is mobile friendly. Thanks for temporarily changing the robots.txt. Please feel free to correct it whenever you’d like to.
Great. I will turn it off now.
I have one more question. I see no subcategories or sub-locations under the blue “search a listing” part on the top search section on the demo of this theme. What if one adds new categories under these subcategories or subsections/sub-locations? For example, please consider the somehow 62 counties of New York as locations or possibly countless dining styles under the Restaurant taxonomy as business categories. Will such sub-taxonomy phrases be (conveniently) listed under parent terms here or will they be added as new, unique item lines in the search box?
There is an option to display the children categories under their parents, like the tree.
Thanks.
Hello, Nice looking theme, one question can I use the taxonomy to populate the meta title and description of each listing ex: Joe Plumber, See more (taxonomy-category) in (taxonomy-city) . thanks
Yes, you can do that with the Page Title module. It allows you to set patterns for your nodes’ meta title tags.
ok,it it possible to make it by default for the an entire category when importing with .csv?
You can import data via CSV and then set the page title patterns.
thank you for you help and sorry for my late answer but can you refer me to this plugin page title module so I can read about it, i really need to make shure that the taxonomy get’s automated when I import listing.
Sure, it is here: https://www.drupal.org/project/page_title
It is a basic SEO module that we use on every theme of ours.

We have answered it on the support forum.
By the way, did you purchase our theme? Your profile does not show the purchase status.
Can this theme be set to only show limited information unless a user is logged in?
Yes, it is feasible.
i have a issue with the search bar, the filters are invisible . When i see the views page, there are several error messages
Array to string conversion in views_handler_filter->admin_summary() (line 166 of /var/www/html/bonjour_artisans/sites/all/modules/views/handlers/views_handler_filter.inc).

Do you promise that the theme will be compatible with Drupal 8 in near future?
We will release a Drupal 8 version in the future. There is a migration plan from Drupal 7 to Drupal 8, so theoritically, it may be compatible.
But since we haven’t tried it, we can not promise you right now.
Why you don’t provide any DEMO user access to your demo site? It is silly. Buyers have to check everything inside out before purchasing the theme. Without providing any demo access you just selling “pig in a poke”.
I really consider to get this theme, but without checking demo access I can’t do this. Your screenshots are just not enough.
In my expriences, if you are not familiar with Drupal, providing you the admin access is no help.
So we offer you to install our free themes instead so you get familiar with it.
I do not need ad ADMIN access to it. I need to try a regular USER access.

Did you run the update.php after updating the Drupal core?
Yes, I did. After I run the update.php .. got this error .. Could I try to update online at live server. I am afraid
You can do that on your real website. Just backup the database so you can revert at any time.

Hello!
Very interested in purchasing your theme for a few projects. I already bought a similar Wordpress theme (Directory Portal) but I prefer Drupal.
A few questions: 1) Is the main listing search functionality customizable? Can I easily add entire other taxonomy category or remove an existing category (like Location)? 2) Is that listing search theme-specific and custom-built or is it an advanced exposed filter from Views? 3) Is the business content type easily customizable? I would like to add product fields to the content type or even create another content type for products that could be attached via Views to a business listing.
Thanks for your time!
Tarmo
Hi Tarmo,
1. You can add or remove existing taxonomy.
2. It is and advanced exposed filter from a Faceted view.
3. The content type can be customized as you want.
This stupid box censored my reply, even there is nothing worths to concensor.
Pls send us an message on http://www.symphonythemes.com/contact
Hi, just wanted to ask if you are planing to do some updates to this theme soon or not.. ?
What kind of updates do you specially need?
We do not plan a major update. It may be a minor update within 1 month.
I don’t need something special, Just wanted to know if I need to expect something major…
You did a fantastic job and I really enjoy this theme so thanks!
Thank you very much. We are appreciated it.
If we have a major update, we will write an upgrade plan.

i am interested to purchase this. Couple questions: Do you have Claim Listing feature ? 2. can you help install it?
Thank you for your interest in our theme.
The Claim listing feature is done manually, ie, you can assign an user as the author of a listing.
Installation is not in scope of support. But it is quite easy. We can guide you.
Just bought this theme a few days ago.
The login to the support on your site did not accept my purchase ID, so I submit my issues here.
1. on /node/add/business: -The navigation menu is all over the place on mobile/tablet size with Chrome, even though applied the recent support suggestions from several previous requests (disable on admin pages). And on FF or IE it is OK, but the menu is disabled, so cannot use it, but still shows to the customer. - The Geocode address map does not work, again on the mobile with Chrome - Photo banner upload, even though correct size, doesn’t work.
2. on the main page map: there is areas completely grey, without the map fully showing after a while… and this is the demo files I received, without any changes.
I will surely find more to add, but one thing I have to say and maybe it is just me, even though I like your work. It seems that you did not incorporate fixes into the downloadable theme files, as suggestions from months ago are not implemented.
I wonder if this is really production ready….
Anyhow, good work guys and I am certain you will fix all issues and provide those to us.
Pls use the secret code from the support-code.txt file of your download package to register.
Then you will be able to access our support forum. Pls include your website like there as well.
OK thanks. I was able to login to your support forum and we’ll go from there. There is no live website yet…..
I have to say I a impressed with the professionalism from symphonythemes. These guys are not only pro developers in drupal themes, they are also professional drupal developers in general.
All my issues have been solved.
I can only recommend these guys.
Thanks alot. You are welcomed 
Hi, is there no calendar function or a scheduler feature where the user can choose the date and time she prefers and book a schedule?
Yep, there is no such option yet. We may include it in the next future updates.
You can place this option in the theme ? http://imgur.com/8ZnECjb
You can turn the Location field to autocomplete, although it may affect the map.
Hi,
Is it possible to have a search engine of the city like on http://www.tripadvisor.com/ ? I enter “bro” and proposes “Bronx”; “brooklyn” ... Thanks.
You can turn the Location search field to autocomplete. Many of our customers have done that.
Hi, how are you? I made a record in BizReview to see how it works to places of registration part however I did not receive the email confirmation! If you are disabled, you would have some prints for me to see how is the way to enter a new location and a new User ? There is an own interface for this? Or the User need to register by wordpress?
This theme is based on Drupal, not WP.
The registration is very simple. The theme has a built-in registration process. We have disabled it because it is only a demo site.
The last pre-purchase questions. I can edit the entire directory to the Portuguese language (Pt -Br)? The website me of this possibility? If you can not, you could direct me to a plugin I can do the translation?
We have a guide here: http://www.symphonythemes.com/drupal-blog/very-short-guide-translate-drupal
Hi, the link does not work
Oops, my service is down. I have fixed it, pls check it again.
I hope you guys will add RTL support. RTL + Mobile-first type responsive is something that still doesn’t exist in Drupal and I guess you really should take a sit in the first row.. Ben,
This theme supports RTL and mobile first responsive. These features are ordinary and are available in almost Drupal themes.
Does it have Full RTL support so that any LTR feature Will automatically go RTL? Strange, when I typed “Drupal RTL” in the search box I didn’t see it in the results. Better make sure you add this to the themes portfolio here in Themeforest.
Yep, I added to the item description.
It is full RTL supported. RTL is just an ordinary feature, Drupal supports it.
Well I hope you’re right, because I bought 4 tmeplates that all promised RTL support and only 2 had something that going near to it, but not for all features…
I will check the BIZ theme soon.
