Hi Themovation!

Really cool theme, I’d like to use it for one of my project but I need your help to figure out if it meets my requirements.

1) The website should provide both the booking of agritourism apartments and the sale of local products.

2) The apartments and the local product should be displayed in two different pages. It would be possibile with your theme?

3) What about the back-end? Apartments and local products would be managed by the same woocommerce panel?

Thanks in advance!

Hello and thank you for contact us.

1) Yes you can do both, the theme includes a shop where you can setup products for sale. :)

2) Yes, the apartments can be added through the rooms custom post type if you wish or you can also add the apartment as a product page. The products can be added to your shop and you can use it’s product page separate from the apartment page.

3) The Apartments can be managed by the Rooms Custom Post type. You can even change the permalink to ‘apartments’ instead of ‘rooms’. You would manage the product in WooCommerce as a product.

This all sounds possible and should work well with our theme.

Let us know if you have any questions, we are happy to assist. :)

Hey Themeovation! Great theme! I saw from a post about 7 months ago that you were looking into how to make a checkbox in the booking form create an additional cost at checkout. Like an add-on. Has any progress been made on this?

I am trying other ways to make this happen using the WooCommerce Product Add-On’s plugin, but I’ve not been able to make that plugin talk to WP Booking System.

Basically, I just need a way to allow the client to buy add-ons (such as boat rentals, canoe, etc) from the booking screen.

Take a look at my booking page here: http://cad.c0f.myftpupload.com/the-villas/mansion/?portorder=menu

And my add-on page here (this is just a product page with Product Add-On’s) http://cad.c0f.myftpupload.com/product/the-mansion/

Best,

Hey! Thanks for the follow up. The plugin developer is actually adding this to the plugin, we just don’t have an eta right now. It’s suppose to be in the next few months. You can always use a plugin to help add extra charges or upsells to the order via WooCommerce.

https://docs.woothemes.com/document/related-products-up-sells-and-cross-sells/ https://docs.woothemes.com/document/cart-up-sells-and-add-ons/

What’s exciting is that we are enhancing the booking plugin with a lot more integration with WooCommerce, it should be ready in the next two months.

Any update on the update for seasonal pricing?

Thanks! I’m checking with our developer in the next few days. It sounds like they are in a testing phase but I”m not sure which features they have completed. I’ll come back to you as soon as I have more info. Thank you for the follow up. We are super excited about these new features too. :)

Hi, I am interested for your template but I have any questions:

- it’s possible add hours to filter of the reservation? - it’s possible let the reservation open to more people? I don’t want that when a first person reserved, no one more can reserve

Thanks for all, Pau.

I pau, thanks for asking.

Not sure what you mean by a hour filter. You can book by single or multiple day. You can add any custom field you like to the booking form.

Yes you can make it so the auto-pending is turned off, allowing unlimited bookings for the calendar.

Happy to answer any questions that you have. Cheers.

Dear webmaster,

I recently bought your theme. Installed the dummy content and the plugin but I am having a technical issue with editing the meta boxes on the pages.

The tick boxes doesn’t want to load. Could you please help me resolve this issue as soon as possible.

Thank you

Hello and thank you for getting in touch. This may be the result of plugin conflict , can you try deactivating all plugins that you are using that did not come recommended by the theme to try a nd narrow it down? We are also happy to pop in and take a look for you. Can you send us an email with access or communicate via our ticket system https://themovation.ticksy.com/ which allows private communications. :) thank you. Happy to assist.

I can not translate the widget in the footer, they always stay in the same language. How to do?

Hello! Thanks for reaching out. Are you using a plugin like polylang, wpml or poedit? Can you share with us what your process has been so far to translate? Can you also share with us which widget you are trying to translate?

Happy to assist.

Dear Bellevue Team,

I came across your Wordpress theme and i love it. It looks great and the functionalities look amazing too. I need to setup a Website for a friend of mine. He has a few apartments for renting and he needs a new website – where users can get information on his apartments. These apartments are on different locations and in different cities. Can your theme handle different apartments in different cities too? i really like your Hotel Demo template. Regarding the booking system – my friend wants to work with another widget – But what i like most is the design of your templates. I guess it is WPML ready too…. I am looking forward hearing from you soon. I really want to work with this great template. Thank you, H.

Hello! Thanks for contacting us. :)

Yes you can add as many rooms as you like. They don’t have to be rooms, you can add them as buildings or apartments. You can also organize them in as many groups as you like. Yes the booking system is translatable. Works great with Polylang which is a free plugin and also WPML.

As for the channel manager, the booking system included already does exporting to airbnb etc, but for importing we are working on a solution for that. It’s not ready just yet. I’m not sure how bed24 works but I suppose it could. The best way to sync is to use ical and we’ve got that working for exporting from WP Booking System to all other calendars, just the importing into WP Booking System is the next step.

I hope this helps. Let us know if you have any questions.

Thank you for your fast feedback. I appreciate this very much. I will purchase your theme. Just one last question: regarding the layered Photoshop files that are included: Can i use edit them in case i want to change the design a little bit? I do believe your design is already great. It is the main reason i want to purchase the Bellevue Template. Again, thank you for your fast feedback. All the best and please keep up the great work :) H.

Yes the Photoshop file is organized in a very efficient way, we do this to it’s easy to make a mock up for you or clients. It’s free and bundled with the theme. The photoshop file is just for mockups, so if you wanted to change the way the theme works you would like to use the theme options control panel or you may need to customize the theme with a child theme which we also bundle. Happy to answer any questions you have :)

Hi, I have a couple of pre-sale questions, I really like this theme, but I wonder how’s the compatibility with Revolution slider, and Visual Composer? also, the project that I need it for is a house, but you can choose by room, (other rooms remain closed to the guest), is it possible to name each room? and to book, Do they need to book each room separately or can they book 4 rooms at the same time each for different number of nights? If I decide to go with the extended support, Do I get the benefit of priority response? Thanks any way your theme is really cool

Hello, the theme comes bundled with Master Slider Pro but if you want to use Rev slider then that should work as well. :) You can use it in place of the Master Slider shortcode. It will certainly work in the content editor.

Yes Visual Composer will work but we don’t apply our styling to the short codes that come with VC. So for example if you add testimonials using VC it might not look like the ones on the demo because you are using the shortcodes that come with VC and not ours. We’ve had others use VC but using our meta box builder is going to generate the best results if you want your site to look like our demos.

Yes you can book by room, each room has it’s own calendar. The same person could book multiple rooms but you would need to make separate requests but the checkout can be done in 1 order. What this means it that you make a booking request for each room / calendar, when you add your order to the cart you can continue to add more rooms or you can choose to checkout. Basically the booking engine passes the total off to WooCommerc for each booking. There is nothing stopping a visitor for booking multiple rooms and then checking out with one big order. Each booking request for each room gets logged in the database as a separate booking.

Our support is very good. We don’t give priority but we try to get to everyone as quickly as possible. If there is a real emergency then sometimes you can jump the queue. :) Extended support is a cost savings for you because you are getting better price by purchasing more support up front.

Happy to answer any questions you have :)

I love this theme! I’m just having a little trouble uploading the backgrounds. Every time I try to upload an Image it doesn’t upload.

E.G. Im trying to upload the Background for the slider from the Homepage

Background Image + Add media 0/1 Files.

I’m having the same trouble uploading the Background for each room.

And could you tell me how to add the small slider in the Rooms sections?

Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the info. Simple fix, I just updated your plugin that had a newer version. Also, Bellevue had a new version out with new features and some fixes, you might consider updating to version 1.6. Cheers! :)

LOL thanks. You guy’s are incredible!

Is it possible to combine Villas and Yachts with this theme?? I mean, types of “rooms” can be changed to types of “yachts” but still keep types of rooms and etc. Please quick answer.

Hello, you could use rooms for both but when it comes to the permalink you would need to choose one or choose something that is ambiguous. So mydomain.com/stay/room1 or mydomain.com/stay/yachts and then use groups to separate them. That is possible. :)

Hi I have some other questions about the theme:

1 Are included with this theme WooCommerce and WPML plugins? or I have to buy them separately?

2 Is possible to use a newsletter with this theme? If yes, it is included? Otherwise the theme is compatible with MailPoet?

3 How does the testimonials part works? Are comments inserted by me or will be customers to add them?

Many thanks, :) Sara

hello!

1) WPML is not included sorry, but polylang is great and it’s free, so is loco translate, but free. See more suggestions here. http://bellevuetheme.com/add-ons-plugins/

2) I haven’t heard of MailPoetbut I know mailchimp works well with this theme. So yes, you can use a newsletter service with it.

3) You insert the testimonials. I think if you setup gravity forms you could potentially have customers create their own and then you can approve. I’m not 100% but I’ve used this for posts before and it was fine.

The them supports most plugins so if there is special features I’m sure you can find it in a free plugin.

Thanks for posting your questions. :) Let us know if you need more detail or have other questions for us. Have a great day.

Hello, thank you very much for your answer and your suggestion. Sorry but I don’t understand if WooCommerce is included or if I have to purchase it separately.

The hotelier wants that clients make on the website a request for availability (without seeing the price of rooms), so this part will be managed by the hotel via e-mail once the request is sent. He also wants to be able to set some special offers that can be purchased directly online on the website (so with the price shown).

If WooCommerce is not included, are there other ways to manage the special offers (that have to be purchasable online directly from the website)?

Thanks for your time :) Sara

Hello Sara! WooCommerce is free and we recommend installing it during the theme activation process. We make it easy to add. No extra fees for you, it’s free.

You can hide and show the price, it’s optional. You don’t have to show it if you don’t want to . It’s very easy to change.

Special offers would be updated via WooCommerce product. So you add a woocommerce product then you associate it with the room and the price is set in WooCommerce. You can use coupons codes or just add a sale price. That’s easy to do as well.

Yup, WooCommerce is free and it comes recommended as part of the install. :)

Hello Themovation. I am VERY interested in buing Bellevue theme for my new apartments Wordpress website, but first a question: I want the page to be available both in English and Polish. I understand that at first I could try Poedit and if I find it hard to do, I should buy and use WPML. Is there a way to put a language choice option in the top menu? Based on the experience, what would be your suggestion?

How did that work?

I’ll let you know as soon as I’ll try, so you could add it to documentation.

We’ve tried and tested Polylang with this theme and it works very well. :) It sounds like you are already using the theme? If you have a purchase code you can add it to our ticket system and get full access to our support if you need it. https://themovation.ticksy.com/ Cheers! :)

I’m getting a strange grey text underneath the white titles on hover… caint seem to get rid of it. any suggestions? http://50.62.35.162/~newema/vacation-homes/

Hmm.. Interesting. That could be a plugin. Very unusual. That’s where the

tag with your description is supposed to show up. If it is a plugin you can bypass this by adding your own text in the excerpt field of each room custom post type. :) That should replace that text. Let us know how it works for you.

Hello. Your theme looks great but I need to know whether the following functions are available: 1) Book for several rooms – 1 double 2 singles for example 2) Indicate number adults, children aged 2-6 and children 7-12 seperately with different prices for each category 3) Indicate additional services with number of participants – adults and children 2-6, 7-12 seperately Thank you in advance for your reply

Thanks for contacting us. The WP booking System that is bundled with the theme might not able to to do all of that but you can add in your own calendar or something like pinpoint which might do all those things. Adding the calendar in the slider at the top with a 3rd party plugin might not look like our demo so if you find a calendar system that can work, let us know and we can test it out for you :)

Thank you for your kind reply, but as a minimum we need multiple room booking possibility.

Thanks for the follow up. Sounds like the pinpoint plugin might be the way to go and that works with our theme in any area where you can add a shortcode. We haven’t tested the pintpoint calendar in the slider but certainly in any HTML meta boxes and the content editor. :)

Hello, I want to buy this, but I have a question, how do I know if multilanguage and the other question is how you start to edit the template but to display the website in Spanish? help…

When you install WordPress you can choose what language, the WordPress options will be in that language you select. There are theme options that were created by us that will initially be in English but you can translate them if you would prefer. You can use loco translate to translate the admin area and polylang to provide your content in different languages. Does this help?

Clearly, if, when you buy, these days, who can provide immediate support me as you have cast ?.

Greetings.

Hi,

I know my support is expired but it would be nice if you please fix this issue in future updates.

When I select testimonials tab and select a group of testimonials. It does not show on front-end. It only shows if I select individual testimonials. http://prntscr.com/auxkma

Can you please tell why is it doing this?

Thanks

Right, sorry I forgot tout that issue. Interesting. I had a look and it’s working on my local dev using 1.5.5 but I’m sure it was also work on 1.5.4 as well.

Testimonials in the homepage group: http://new.tinygrab.com/6407caa59e77ffe7573106b10240f2a7cba6b1d80c.png

Maybe you have some local caching going on? Feel free to email us with access to your site and we can pop in and have a look.

Cheers!

Hi,

Thanks for sharing screenshots. I really don’t know why is it happening to me. I just sent you an email from your ThemeForest profile page.

Please take a look at it.

Thanks again!

Cool I just looked into that for you and responded via email :) Maybe a caching issue?

Is the theme responsive/ can be viewed on any device?

Hello! Yes this theme is fully responsive and can be viewed on any device. Cheers!

Hi, I’m interested in the theme, but my client is a bed and breakfast and doesn’t want potential visitors to see availability and price of individual rooms.

He would like the site send him an automatic email with customer preferences (arrival date, departure date, nights, type of room and service, the number of guests…), so on the basis of these data he can define and communicate the price to its costumers and finally confirm reservation. Do you think this is possible with this theme?

He also wants to be able to set some special offers that can be purchased directly online (so with the price shown).

It is possible do all this with your reservation form??

Thanks in advance.

Hello, thanks for following up.

Yes the calendar can work in this way. You can turn auto-pending off so that when someone chooses their dates (arrival / departing) and fills out the form, the status of those rooms will not change.

In effect the calendar is more of a date selector than an availability calendar. You can use it in this way.

You can also build the form to request any information you wish, adults, children, extra services etc… when the customer submits their request, it goes to the admin and gets stored in the website for reference. :)

Once that is done the hotelier can choose to follow up with the person or create a product in WooCommerce so that the person can purchase their stay.

You can even get fancy with WooCommerce and generate a custom order then send it to the customer for payment. :)

It’s awesome. :)

Hello, thanks for your answer.

So is possible to do all these things without displaying the price of the rooms?

Very easy to do :)

Hi, good theme, i have a question.. after the reservation, the customer can choose; a breakfast, transport, or other services of addition to booking. Example: 60€ for the room + 10€ for the breakfast = 70€ total pay. Thanks, by.

Hi there! You can use add ons or up sells via the WooCommerce setup but we don’t have this built into the booking process. We will be adding this in the future. Thank you so much for asking your questions. :)

Hi

I want to know how many rooms can i see in the homepage. For example i have set more than 10 rooms but i can see only 10 of them. Why?

In the attachment file there is a screenshot that shows my rooms in the page. I can only see 10 of them.

Best regards
