Pre purchase questions – 1) With this theme can I individually number issued coupons. 0001-0002-0003 etc. 2) Can I issue coupon codes (from this theme) that people can enter on other websites?

Hi there. Thank you for the interest in the theme!

1) Every deal can have only one code.

2. You can issue any kind of textual codes.

Is this template compatible with WP multisite?

Hi there! You shouldn’t have any problems using the theme on multisites.

Hello there. Hope you are doing good!

Some pre-sales questions. (I’m a newbie, so please bare with me the silly doubts.)

1. How is the security implement? 2. Does it come ready for integration with emailer plugins? 3. How to setup the database? 4. Is there any functionality to add Coupons/Deals in bulk? 5. How would I receive the theme, once purchased? I mean can I download on my local or it has to be on the site only? 6. The license to use this template is to be renewed annually or it is one-time purchase?

(Will post few more, just in case I come across anything before buying the template.)

Hi there,

Thank you for the interest in the theme.

1. The theme is secured as good as a Wordpress theme can be. There are no known vulnerabilities.

2. You can use the custom Mailchimp widget plugin that theme comes with.

3. The theme is installed as a normal Wordpress one. Every deal is a separate post.

4. CouponHut comes with the WP All Import plugin + special custom add-on for importing multiple deals from a CSV/XML file.

5. After purchase, you can download the theme here from themeforest and install it on any server of yours.

6. The theme is a one time purchase that comes with 6 months support. Support can be further is extended.

Hope this answers your questions!

Hi ! I think your theme has some nice design and features but I would like to make suggestions and have some questions before deciding a future purchase.

1. Are you able to implement variable deal options in the near future? This is really good for hotel, tickets and tour deals.

Example: [removed]

2. Are you able to implement (in future) shops and/or categories page preferably A-Z and sorting/filter options so customers can select stores and categories easily? A good example below:

Stores: [removed] Categories: [removed]

3. Able to implement total number of deals bought for each deal (on the deals listing page and solo deal page) ? This would really help customers see how popular each deal is and encourage purchase – must have feature in my opinion.

4. For the vendor info, able to add more social media icons such as Facebook, Instagram etc beside Visit Website?

5. Since there is no email notification currently (I would like buyers and/or vendors to be notified of each deal purchase), how do we go about implementing it ? Is it complicated? Do you think this may be implemented in future?

Thank you!

Hello!

1. The theme currently doesn’t feature variable deals.

2. There is no such option for now as there doesn’t seem to be interested in one.

3. We will have this in mind.

4. You can do something similar if you use a plugin that adds social icon shortcodes.

5. This should be an easy feature to add for a freelancer.

Edit: Unfortunately, no links to another themes are allowed in comments in Themeforest and this is the reason your post is flagged. Thank you for the understanding.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

- Hoping to see the variable deals (will purchase if have plans to do!) - Able to have Top Deals would be great ! - Option to add more than 1 deal to cart

Having these would make this theme a winner.

Is there any option to upload coupons through xml file or integrating API?

Yes, the theme comes with the WP All Import plugin + a custom CouponHut add-on for it. Please read the documentaiton in documentation.index.html It is described how easy it is to import deals.

Hi, Please help me on below issues,

1. We tried to register as a company by entering email, password and ‘register as company’ flag checked. After registered, we tried to edit the company information and we got 404 error(...wordpress/my-account/my-company/) for this url
2. Is it possible to register as a user(not as company) and upgrade that account to company later. Can you please explain steps for this ? 
3. Should we need to purchase ACF ? It is not getting updated when I try ! Also "Custom Fields" doesn't appear in dashboard menu ?

Please let me know thanks.

Team , I have tried permalinks things many time. It still not working . Let me explain all steps to reproduce this issue.

1) Visit http://oyehoye.ca 2) Register user with selecting “Register as a company” 3) Log in with this user 4) Click “My Company” link 5) you will find “404” error.

Please you can verify this by above steps. Please please look into this.

Can you send us credentials and link to your admin panel via the Support tab of the theme so we can inspect this problem closely? Thanks,

Done

One question and if it’s good, i want to purchase this right away. Can I make it so that deals and coupons show by city. I live in Quebec, Canada. Can I show individual postal codes or cities and only have certain deals show up depending on geo location? Thank you

Hello and thank you for the interest in the theme! The cities dropdown is automatically populated by all the cities from the deals. When a city is selected, the theme shows only deals from that city.

hi subsolar. interested in your theme. :)

pre sale question..

1. can we disable the country and city from the search bar?

2. any example for coupon that has no expiry date?

3. expired coupon : will it be autoremoved / become draft ?

4. can we add button (link) inside company/store’s description? (between company logo & visit website link)

5. is there any front end submission form for store to submit? and can they check all their submission?

thanks :)

This is the front-end submit deal form – http://subsolardesigns.com/couponhut/submit/

Members can see their deals like this – http://i.imgur.com/UPIDXCO.jpg

And can edit each of them like this – http://i.imgur.com/czrfDQO.jpg

When a deal is submitted, the administrator receives an email to approve it, which redirects to the Wordpress admin dashboard where the Deal is inserted as Pending.

hi again, thank you for the reply

will the member received notification when their deal is approved?

another thing : i saw this error above the images

Notice: Use of undefined constant php – assumed ‘php’ in /home/subsolar/public_html/couponhut/wp-content/themes/couponhut/taxonomy.php on line 110

http://subsolardesigns.com/couponhut/deal_category/beauty/

hope this can help u update the demo :)

Hello, there is currently no feature to send emails on approved deals.

Thank you for the feedback, the problem is fixed!

Hello Thank you for this great Template , Guys you Roooock !! I have some issues while inserting code in the TextBox , I tried to insert an iframe with <iframe> ..</iframe > .. doesnt work I also tried to test <iframe> .. </iframe> => doesnt work too .. Please can you help me doing it right

Thank you

<iframe> works, just make sure that you insert it in the Text tab as there could be a problem inserting it in the Visual tab of the Text Block shortcode.

I have a question. My site http://www.shepkart.com is deal and offers site. How i have add your coupons theme on my wesite site theme to display a partial coupons on home page? —PJ

I’m afraid I can’t understand what you mean by “partial coupons on home page”. Can you explain? You will need to install Wordpress and change your whole theme to CouponHut.

As this has excellent ratings and looks great, I’m likely going to buy it but I’ve learned to think through everything I need and ask questions beforehand. (Have bought a lot of themes on here I ended up not using because they lacked features I didn’t think of when I bought.)

The other theme on here similar but with lousy ratings and reviews has a credit system which is a big plus. Have you considered adding this on? That helps with the site monetization if people buy credits ahead of time and use as needed. Otherwise, how do people pay to list? Is it per listing? And there’s a PayPal gateway?

Also, I’m considering it for a members-only private deals site. Do you think I can integrate this with a plug in to make it viewable to members only?

And can you use Visual Composer? Not sure if I need it for this but just checking as I use Ultimate Add Ons for just about everything.

Might have a few more questions but seems like the best theme for listing deals and coupons, so will most likely buy.

Thanks!

Hi there,

Of course, one should ask before buying because you never know if the theme will have the features that you need.

The theme doesn’t have an option to fee the shops. We have considered adding such feature but we haven’t reached final decision still so we can’t promise anything.

Yes, there is a PayPal Gateway as the theme uses the WooCommerce plugin for selling the deals.

For the Visual Composer Question – The theme uses the Unyson framework but there is a way to use it together with VC. In the admin panel, clicking on Unyson in the sidebar ->”Show More Extensions” and then installing the “WordPress Shortcodes” extension will add a shortcodes button to your Unyson Wordpress editor. So now you can use the VC Text Field and in it insert the needed Unyson shortcode via that button.

Hope this answers your questions!

pre purchase questions:

1) Is it possible to display the number of purchases per item? 2) Why I can not see the textual reviews the demo, should I be registered? 3) can stores manage their coupons? Can they verify the code that takes the customer? 4) when a customer purchases a coupon, the customer receives an email with the coupon code? Does the store receives an email with the sale?

Hi there, thank you for the interest!

1. No there is no such option.

2. The demo deals don’t have comments enabled.

3. Stores can edit their submitted deals.

4. He receives the code when he checks his purchase on the site. No emails are sent.

Is there a way to create a sidebar for the “Submit a Deal” page?

Currently, there is no such option. We are planning implementing one but we don’t know when it will be released.

hi,

1-when i use Google map, instead for city i get areas, is this anything that i can fix?

2- where can the deal owner check if the order number is valid/invalid or used/not used?

3-how can i change the language for the couponhut theme?

thanks for your help

Hi there,

1. Which city is the problem with? Can you send us a link via the Support tab of the theme? Thanks.

2. There is no such functionality.

3. The theme can be localized as each other theme on Themeforest, with a program like POEdit or a plugin like WPML and Codestyling Localization.

thank you

1- the link is dittkop.se you can see that instead for showing the city “Stockholm” it shows areas in stockholm

2-thank you for your reply, but how we know that if the order number is used or not?

3-thank you, i.m gonna try with the plugins, becouse it didnt worked with poedit.

1. Could you write us via the Support tab of the theme? We have a solution for your problem.

2. As this is a specific request, we recommend you contacting a freelancer to implement such feature for you.

Hi, do this theme has the following features:

“Options” – deal owner can add options to a deal for purchase. Example: 60 minute Massage $60 90 minute Massage $85

“Give as Gift”. – User purchases the Deal and is given the option to send it to someone else.

“Ask a Question” – User can send an inquiry to deal owner before purchasing. (a popup inquiry form would be great)

“Ratings” – User can give a Rating along with the Review. Furthermore, the ability to give a Rating and Review should only be available to a thoses who purchased a deal. In User Dashboard there should be a new tab showing what Deals are pending rating/review.

I truly hope you can consider these features(if they are not included) as they would make this a very powerful Theme. Cheers

Hi, Thank you for the interest in the theme!

“Options” – this could be added as a simple text in the content of the deal.

“Give as Gift” – There is no such option integrated. As the theme uses WooCommerce it could be possible with an appropriate plugin but we haven’t tested such thing and can’t say for sure.

“Ask a Question” and “Ratings” – No such features.

It’s recommended to contact a freelancer to implement features that you want and are not included in the theme. They should be an easy work for one.

Hi, Sorry for such a stupid question, but where do I change the colour and font?

You can use the options panel in Appearance > Theme Settings.

Please read the documentation in documentation/index.html in the package file that is downloaded from themeforest. You will see that everything is very easy to set up.

Hi, In the current template, 1. We tried to register as a company by entering email, password and ‘register as company’ flag checked. After registered, we tried to edit the company information and we got 404 error(...wordpress/my-account/my-company/) for this url 2. Is it possible to register as a user(not as company) and upgrade that account to company later? 3. Will the activation link be generated and sent to user email during registration so that they can activate the account by clicking that link?

Please let me know thanks.

Hi there,

1) Please update the theme to the latest version, go to Settings > Permalinks and click Save. If the link still doesn’t work, please contact us via the Support tab of the theme and please give us credentials and link to your admin panel so we can inspect the problem closely.

2) You will have to add the meta field “user_company” to that user containing the Name of the company.

3) The theme uses WooCommerce for the registration. You will have to configure the Woocommerce registration options the way you want from WooCommerce > Settings.

hello. i need the HTML version of this template. CouponHut? i want to buy it. can you help me with this? Thanks…

Hello, unfortunately, there is no HTML template available. CouponHut is Wordpress theme only.

Hi,

I have a problem that I need some help with please. When the user clicks the pages numbers on the deal catergory page it show a 404 error. SO they are only able to see the first page of deals. Please see:

http://www.pureoffers.co.uk/deal_category/things-to-do/

If you click on page 2 for example, you get a 404

http://www.pureoffers.co.uk/deal_category/things-to-do/page/2/

its the same for all pages.

Many thanks Regards Simon

Please disable any 3rd party plugins (make sure you don’t have any problematic ones installed), after that go to Settings > Permalinks and click Save. If the problem is still not resolved Please send us credentials and link to your admin panel via the Support tab of the theme here so we can inspect the problem closely. Thank you.

Hi,

Thanks – I have done this and still not working so I have just sent you the below message via the contact form with correct admin details. Hi,

Please see below admin details for my site.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I have disabled the plug ins as requested but I still get the issue on the deal category pages (http://www.pureoffers.co.uk/deal_category/holidays/) where its goes to a 404 error when trying to navigate through the pages numbers.

It works ok on the all deals page though.

I noticed that since the last update the side bar that was previously on the deal category is no longer there – do you know where this has gone and could this be related ?

Thanks Simon

Answered via email.

Deleted the theme and updated it to the latest version and now everything works correctly. Also deleted the cache via the WP Ending menu in the admin dashboard.

Now everything works correctly.

Hi, Please can you tell me if it is possible to use short codes or HTML in the Deal Summary box (the text that appears on the side in the single deal page).

Thanks Simon

Hello!

Yes, it’s a textbox where you can insert HTML code and shortcodes too.

It doesnt seem to work for me – please see http://www.pureoffers.co.uk/deal/all-inc-corfu-escape/

It seems there is a slight bug. We are fixing it and a new update for the theme will be out in up to 3 days.
