Thank you
Yup, you an upgrade at anytime. 
Make sure your plugin are also update to date, especially the meta box plugin. Make sure you backup before any update like this.
Hello, I bought your awesome theme. I installed it and activate all the plugins and imported all the demo\widget\form files, where I activate and use the “countryside cottage” demo? Thanks
Thank you! Happy to help. Please see: https://themovation.ticksy.com//article/7489/ if you run into any issues or still have questions , please let me know.
Hello again, how can I create a carousel like the one in this page?http://demo.themovation.com/bellevue/chalet/ thank you
Hello! Can you confirm which feature you are trying to use? The image carousel that goes full width and shows 4 images?
I see an AirBnB & TripAdvisor Logo in the Why Us section. Could we have a VRBO & HoweAway Logo as well?
Hello, yes, you can add any logo you wish.
If I do not want to use the wp booking system plugin, can I create a form only to check availability? I do not want it go to page of checkout. I want just the availability check.
Hello! Thanks for your interest. Yes, you can use it like a form, you do not need to do the payment / checkout step, that’s optional. The WP Booking System is also optional, you can easily replace it with a form. We actually ship with Formidable lite and we include several form template that you can use. If you have any questions please let us know. Happy to assist
Ok, I got it!
1 – More we will give the example that I want to use the plugin of yours as in the link just below. Is it already available in the template or would I have to develop it?
2 – Note that the forms are below the main slide. Can you do that too?
http://preview.themeforest.net/item/starhotel-hotel-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/10947944?redirect_back=true&ref=sheamedia Another example would be this: http://hotel.bold-themes.com/summer/ Or like this one that evaluates the availability and redirects to a personalized booking form. https://www.cssigniter.com/demo2/?theme=santoriniWe have something similar, it’s a inline conversion form, however the version of Formidable that we include does not provide the calendar modals in the lite version, you would need to purchase pro to use the calendar.
I hope that helps
OK! So if I buy the Formidable PRO version, can I do it? Where do I buy this plugin?
That’s correct. Here is a video https://cl.ly/33203o020n2k
Perfect! So just to finish I have one more question:
On this same type of form you introduced me, I can add some fields like for example:
Select Room | Number of tubes | Number of Children
I’m sorry for the lack of knowledge and so many questions. It’s because I want to be sure before I buy.
Greetings!
Yes, whatever you can fit in that space, you may need to add some styling to reduce the padding in order to for more fields but you should be good. If you run into any issues, just let us know. Cheers!
Are these fields customized through your plugin or do they have to be customized by code?
They are customized through the formidable pro plugin if you need to use the calendar date choser. I just tested and it works great.
Hi, I was wondering if it’s possible to configure discounts with this? Let’s say if someone books 3 days,they get 15% discount
These settings would have to be set inside WooCommerce, there are many plugins that do discounting so you would setup a quantity discount of 15% off when purchasing more than a quantity of 3. Should be pretty straight forward. Let us know if you have any questions.
Belleview shortcodes will not update and site is hanging. I receive this message: Download failed. A valid URL was not provided.
Happy to help, please see: https://themovation.ticksy.com//article/6247/ – I think you may be running into the same issue. Let us know if that does not resolve it. Thanks!
When will there be an update for Master Slider? It is loading so slooooowwww
Hello! Thank you for contacting us. We have an update for you. Can you please email us or create a ticket? https://themovation.ticksy.com/
Which email address can I use?
Thank you, email sent!
Awesome!
does the theme support slider revolution and if so also on the page? We rent out villa’s and sailing yachts. Would it be possible to modify, for example, rooms to cabins etc. for the yacht section?
Hello, thanks for your interest. Yes, the theme will work with Slider Revolution. We also ship with Master Slider which is $24 bundled for free. If you have any other questions please let us know
Does the plugin revolution slider also work on the home page? And yachts have cabins no rooms no address etc. Yachts have lenght in ft, sail area, number of cabins and are rented out bareboat or skippered or with instructor etc. Would it be possible to accommodate these changes and would it be possible to have to two, villa options/features and yacht options/features next to eachother?
Hello, yes, revolution slider can be added with a shortcode, so you can add the rev slider shortcode where you would normally use master slider. It should be all good.
You don’t have to use the rooms feature, or you can use cabins instead. You can group your cabins by yachts name using the ‘room type’ it can be dual purpose.
Yes, I think that should all work. If you run into any issues let us know. We have great support.
Hello there and congratulations for making such a smashing theme, it is 3 weeks now investigating, so happy to have stumbled into it! I have some basic pre-sale questions: 1. I have no code experience but I like the idea of leaning by doing and have quite some time to dedicate…do you see it feasible for me to take over the whole installation process? just to know…In the event I am lost somewhere do you give any installation/customisation support (on payment as well of course)? 2. I am a small holiday rental agency and need to list and rent my properties, more than 30 or so…you confirm this is the right theme? 3. I was checking the ical issue and maybe you can give me good news that you developed the two-way of sync? I am more interested into the sync from another site directly into mine… 4. Can I add any extra activity/price like final cleaning, etc? 5. Is there the possibility to include a deposit with the payment? Thanks for your help!
hello! Thanks for your interest.
1. I have no code experience but I like the idea of leaning by doing and have quite some time to dedicate…do you see it feasible for me to take over the whole installation process? just to know…In the event I am lost somewhere do you give any installation/customisation support (on payment as well of course)?
> We have excellent support and the setup is easy. We actually have a video that will guide you through.
2. I am a small holiday rental agency and need to list and rent my properties, more than 30 or so…you confirm this is the right theme?
> You can list as many as you like. You’ll need a calendars for each property. The WP Booking system is the pro plugin that we ship with the theme. It’s great.
3. I was checking the ical issue and maybe you can give me good news that you developed the two-way of sync? I am more interested into the sync from another site directly into mine…
We only have one way sync at this time but you can also use VR Calendar instead of WP Booking. It works with this theme and supports two way sync.
4. Can I add any extra activity/price like final cleaning, etc? 5. Is there the possibility to include a deposit with the payment? Thanks for your help!
> Deposit would be managed on the WooCommerce side of things and yes it’s possible. Extra fees can also be added on the Woo side of things. It won’t be triggered by an option during booking though, it’s tied in with the product on the woocommerce side. You can also use any booking system you like. The WP Booking System Pro is included for free and it’s great but sometimes you may need specific requirements, for that we’ve made the theme support many other booking systems.
If you have any questions please let us know.
Hello again, many thanks for being so exhaustive. I have another doubt…dont’ see any map included in the demos ,,,for me is vital, is it foresee/supported?
Yes, we do include a Google map, you can also use any mapping plugin or a direct embed from Google Maps.
We include two versions:
http://demo.themovation.com/bellevue/guesthouse/contact/ (In the content)and we also provide a full width version in the header.
Hi, How do I turn the recaptcha on the forms? I am getting a lot of spam through the website. Also the email notifications dont work. Do I need to insert code into the “Customize HTML” section of the form builder to insert the recaptcha code?
Hello! Are you referring to WP Booking System or Formidable? Please see: https://themovation.ticksy.com//article/7982/ and also https://themovation.ticksy.com//article/6407/ – Those two articles will help you setup captcha and your email notifications. Let me know if you run into any issues.
Thank you! And how do I add spam protection to the comments section on the blog?
The best plugin that I’ve used is called Akismet and I think it’s bundled for free with WordPress.
Thank you again
Happy to help. If you need anything else please let us know.
Hi! I would like to add a transparent background rectangle to make slider texts more readable. Where can I change it?
Hello! Thanks for your interest.
Hi, there isn’t a built-in theme option to add that, and it can’t really be done with CSS because another element would need to be added. So generally we recommend using an image editing program.
However another option is to add a shadow to the text instead. You can try it out by copy/pasting this CSS into your child theme, or the Custom CSS box under Appearance > Theme Options:
#main-flex-slider .slider-title,
#main-flex-slider .slider-subtitle {text-shadow: 0px 0px 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.65);}

thanks
Anytime. Thanks for posting your questions.
Hi,
Site in question – (http://fordfarmhouse.com)
Firstly, Love the theme, really good and can do so much with it, still playing with the site two years down the line after I started using it!
I have come across an issue though and not sure why the navigation on mobile seems to be playing up.
I know from before that you cannot click on a page link if it is a drop-down menu, so had to put the items under the menu title.
This worked fine for some time until now someone has pointed out they cannot view pages such as ‘About us’ and its subpages or ‘Isle of Wight’ and the pages under that also on mobile.
I have too checked on my iPhone both in safari and chrome and it does not seem to be working, but its fine on a desktop.
Would you have any ideas as to why this might be?
Thank you in advance for your reply.
Thank you for letting us know. I see a few notices showing up in the JS console. https://cl.ly/2m3d150d1l36 – Can you try deactivating all plugins, see if that helps, then bring back the plugins one by one until you find the conflict. Please let us know how that works for you.
Hi, thanks for getting back to me!
Just gone through all the plugins and found its the Booking Calendar (https://wordpress.org/plugins/booking/) that is causing the navigation not to function properly.
I have also tried it just having the booking calendar activated but has the same issue. Not sure why it’s not working as I’m pretty sure its the one issued with the theme?
I guess there must be something else deep down that’s conflicting?
I’ve tried removing all custom CSS from the theme options to see if there was conflict in there but made no difference.
I’ve seen this before with bootstrap conflicts. Can you ask the plugin author of they use bootstrap and if there is a way that they can disable it? Any reason that you aren’t using the bundled WP Booking System?
Thanks for working with us on this one.
Dear All,
I am trying to get the same presentation as the following demo page, for the 3 columns section for the service block (with big red icons on top): http://demo.themovation.com/bellevue/hotel/contact/
I declared the service block in the Bellevue menu in WordPress, selected the service block in the edited page (the homepage), and checked the 3 columns presentation. Un fortunately, I cannot get same result. http://madrid-cosy-rentals.com/fr/As you can see, I cannot get 1. the 3 blocks on the same raw 2. the big red icons on top
Here is what I would like to get: http://prntscr.com/h6xd8a Here is what I have so far: http://prntscr.com/h6xdh4
Your help will be much aprpeciated as I found nothing in the online support documentation.
Many thanks in adavnce for your feedback.
Kind regards,
Happy to help, what you want to use is the vertical service block style, https://cl.ly/0M1e2O1W2n2w – Let us know if you run into any issues.
Hello, I do not see how to take into account the options of the booking form for the final payment. How to take into account the number of people for the payment?
For example, a night for 1 person billed at $ 100, if I add a second that the amount goes to $ 130 in the cart?
Is it also possible to block the quantity in the cart? If the person books for 3 nights, 3 nights are blocked on the booking calendar. But if the person decreases the number of nights in the cart, it will pay less but will have blocked his 3 nights anyway …
Thank you and congratulations for this nice theme.
Hello, thanks for your questions. Have you seen this article? https://themovation.ticksy.com/article/5363/ also this one https://themovation.ticksy.com/article/7985/ which as more helpful links at the bottom of the article.
The short answer is that the customer chooses the check in / check out times and then the quantity should automatically be adjusted.
Hello and thank you for your answer, that said in the helpers I still do not see how to take into account the addition of a person or several people in the booking form for the final price of the basket …
I can not find which attribute of the shortcode including woocommerce, takes into account the options added in the form.
An idea to make that if we check 1, 2 or 3 additional people, it adds a price for example of $ 20 per person more ??
Hello, thank you for the follow up. The plugin that is bundled “WP Booking System” currently does not have an option for adding extras but I think the WooCommerce does. I’m not 100% certain that it will solve your concern but please see: https://themovation.ticksy.com//article/7343/
That said, you can always swap out the WP Booking System with another if you feel that it won’t meet your needs. The booking system we bundle is optional and can be swapped out easily.
Let me know if you run into any issues. I’ll watch for your follow up.
Ok, I would fit. Is it possible to adapt the price weekdays and weekends?
For example, if you reserve on weekdays: $ 100 and if you book on weekends: $ 130?
Thank you.
Sorry no, we made a workaround for Seasonal Pricing but I don’t think that’s what you are looking for. I know the dev team for WP Booking System is working on daily rates. I’ll follow up with them this week.
OK…
I’m still bothering you, but is there a way also that the booking dates selected by the customer are recalled in the cart?
I did not see that we could manually send a confirmation message
Ignore this message;)
No bother at all, feel free to contact us with any questions.
Hi, i have a problem for the master slider purchase code. “Connection error” When I write my user envato and my purchase code item. Please help me
Sorry if there was any confusion. Please see: https://themovation.ticksy.com/article/5138/ – We wrote a guide for updating Master Slider. Let us know if you have any questions. Happy to help.
Hey guys, one question. I wanted to change some wordings within the “rooms”. It worked perfectly for 8 of them. But for the last one, I can’t change the description I want to change. Even when I want so see the changes with the preview, there comes an error. PLS help!
hello, thanks for letting us know. That’s odd, what area are you trying to change? Can you create a ticket for our support team? Please go to : https://themovation.ticksy.com/
Hi guys,
First of all congrats for that impressive theme!
Quick pre-sales questions…
1. Does it have all payments related features and functionalities, such as WooCommerce, API development and sand boxing for different payments gateway such as DirectPay, authorize.net, stripes, PayPal, PayMil… ?
2. Full integration, channels, such as booking.com expedia.com or Jovago.com, tripadvisor.com, hotel.com…
3. In terms of reservations, can we block rooms and dates, and does it comes with an availability chart, so that one can see availability at a glance?
4. For the pricing properties pricing, are seasonality and marginal pricing possible?
5.1. Can it handle multiple properties, with multiple room types?
5.2. If the additional services could be pushed further, with ultimate goal of creating packages, with ground handling, such as airport transfers and excursions?
5.3. More importantly on the additional services, can prices be broken down between the different services?
6. Last but not least, taxonomy change for multiple properties, with different hotels names, rooms type…
Thanks,
Hello, thanks for your interest:
1 ) The Booking System passes the booking total off to WooCommerce where the checkout happens with WooCommerce so all the Woo API, Gateways, etc is possible. If it works with WooCommerce, it should work with the theme.
2 ) Not sure what you mean by Full Integration, but if any of those services provides codes to include booking widget etc, then yes it should work. the theme plays nice with WordPress plugins and scripts.
3) Yes, you can set a days status as booked, pending, available and also create your own statues. Yes you can see availability at a glance. There are several options when displaying a calendar availably. How many months, what month to start at, etc.
4) Seasonal pricing has an option, it’s more of a work around at this time so please have a look at our article. https://themovation.ticksy.com//article/6780/
5.1) Each calendar is tied into a single room or a whole property. So if you are renting out the entire property, then one calendar is sufficient. You can create as many calendars as you wish, so in that way, yes, you can have multiple properties. If you have 2 rooms in each of you 3 properties, you would create 6 calendars to manage each rooms availably. It works very well in that way.
5.2) You could arrange Woo in ai way to create special packages but nothing specifically associated with the booking system for packages / addons. Woo does a pretty good job of upsells and addons through their plugins. I think they provide upsells included in basic WooCommerce.
5.3) Related to 5.2 , it would have to be done with WooCommerce. The booking system does not have features for additional services as add ons to rooms.
6) We have a single layer of taxonomy / rooms types. However you can have multiple room types per room, eg. ‘Hotel A’ + ‘Double Room’. and then ‘Hotel B’+ Double Room’. So those room types can be sorted and grouped to help display specific rooms types according to the property.
I hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions.
The theme works very well with any type of booking system you wish to use. The booking that we include is a pro version and you get it for free but it’s optional to use. It’s easy to deactivate if you wish to use your own booking system.
Cheers
Hi again,
Last question…
Can I use a different reservation/booking plugin? As it seems that there is an amazing one and very versatile in terms of configuration, HBook – Hotel Booking system!
Would that be OK? Would you advise it or not?
Thanks
Yup, you can use any system you like. As long as it works with WordPress, it should work with our theme If something isn’t right, you can always contact our support. We have awesome support.
Hi,
I installed the theme and plugins, but MasterSlider says I need to activate for premium, though it should be included within the purchase of the theme? Thanks!
Best, Cedric
Hello, thanks for letting us know. Master Slider is updated in a special way. The plugin developer has asked us to do it this way. Please see: https://themovation.ticksy.com/article/5138/ – Let us know if you run into any issues.
Hello, it’s not about updating , but “pro features” are not unlocked in the version?
Ah, the pro version is the one we bundle. I know that Master Slider does lock some aspects, for example not all of the premium template are included but we don’t have control over that, the devs at Master Slider have done this to prevent illegal downloads. I’ve contacted them about this, they say they are working on a solution but I have yet to hear back.
From our side, we make sure the plugin is up-to-date and we can also export any template you wish to use that might be locked.
Great! Thanks, if I need one, I’ll ask
Cool! Happy to help.
Hi, i just wonder the theme and booking system is compatible with turkish language and Turkish currency (TL) ?
hello, yes the theme is fully translatable and you should be able to use your currency (TL) in WooCommerce
thank you very much thats great
Thank you for the follow up.
