Hi,

I really hope you have time to read all, and consider….

First of all, I should repeat that this is 100% perfect theme for any travel agency. BUT, you have some serious problems which should be considered at earliest…

1) SEARCH BOX

Example – HomePage 4 : https://demo.goodlayers.com/traveltour/homepage-4/

It should be suitable for every kind of travel agency, but it is not… there are sections which is not useful at all… such as “keyword”... we are not a search engine :) sections are fixed and can’t be changed… boxes are fixed and can’t be replaced… as they are predefined…

Search Box should contain : Destination / Tour Type / Travel Style / Duration / Date / Accommodation etc etc etc … and for sure these sections should be customizable by the travel agency…

Travelers first decide on the country, then the style of the tour that they would like to join, and then decide on the days, finally according to the prices they decide on the travel dates… This never changed in last 30 years (at least I know :) ), and will not change at all…

So, finally, “search box” should really be fixed seriously !!!!

2) SEARCH RESULT PAGE

Example – HomePage 4 : https://demo.goodlayers.com/traveltour/search-tours/?tour-search=&tour-activity=&tour-destination=africa&duration=&date=

Page title says “Search Tours”... Don’t you think that its funny as client already made the search for Africa… so instead of saying “search tours”, it should say something like “Trips in Africa” / Holidays in Africa” etc etc, with some description about the destination…. this is also a very important section update which should be done and also be controlled by the travel agency….

3) FILTERING BOX

Example – HomePage 4

There is a section for “Top Destinations”.. When you click on “See All Tours”, you reach the result as here : “https://demo.goodlayers.com/traveltour/tour-destination/south-america/”...

This is the point where the problem starts, as if there are 200 tours in one destination, clients should check all the tours one by one to find the suitable one… And of course there is no such client who will spend such time fo this… so, you loose the client :)

But if there was a proper filter section on the page, it will take few seconds for the client to reach the result… and this will really make the site be USEFUL…

Filter Box should have all possible questions for clients, such as : Travel Style / Date / Duration / Start/End City / Must See Cities / Accommodation / Age Range / Budget / Price p/day / Deals / ... etc etc etc, and travel agencies should be able to customize filter box for their needs…

4) TOUR DETAIL PAGE

Example – HomePage 4 : https://demo.goodlayers.com/traveltour/tour/switzerland-7-days-in-zurich-zermatt/

First problem is, you should decide on if you want to use icons to explain basic details of the tour, or text… such as : “calendar icon – Availability : Jan 16’ – Dec 16’”... do not look logic and clever…

But the main problem in this section is : “DetailI | Itinerary | Map | Photos | Reviews”... If I was planing to go on a trip, first of all, I would read a little description which will catch me… secondly, I will check the itinerary details… thirdly see what is included and excluded… then photos and finally tour map and reviews… as I am almost deciding or not :)

So, yes this section is also should be updated to 21 century travel !!!

Finally, yes you have already done a great job and this theme is absolutely fantastic for the use of travel agencies, but also has little problems…. and I really hope that I was enough helpful to upgrade this theme, and now you can gift it to my use for free :)... just kidding… I am ready to pay you 130 USD instead of 65 USD, if you can really do these in your next upgrade… I am also sure that there lost of agencies waiting for these upgrades… win win :)

Wishing you a great success at your work…

Thank you very much for your value feedbacks. We will surely bring these into our consideration for future update :)

3,285 Sales X 65 USD = 213,525 USD :)

3,285 Sales X 130 USD = 427,050 USD :)

Its better you be quick for the future update… All is about money !!!!

Hi. Do you have rtl support for all demos or only for main homepage?

Hi,

RTL is for all demos :)

Hi, Today I’ve updated the goodlayers core plugins to latest version which is 1.3.8. Though on this plugin changelog, I see goodlayer core plugin updated version is 1.4.2. So it’s confusing where I’ve the latest version of theme, but still older versioned plugin is there may be?

Anyway, after updating, there we’re facing several problems. Like, after creating a post and saving it as draft, then the page builder or seems javascript is not working. And also page builder code element is not working, just show the code on front-end. Like this https://vuelaalavida.com/viajes-a-norteamerica/

I’ve tried with these ways yet now. Uninstalled plugins, theme updated, then saved theme options, goodlayers plugins deleted and then again installed and activated. But couldn’t figure it out​ yet.

So need help on this please.

​Thanks​

Hi,

Sure, we can help looking into this. But before moving on, can you please try to clear browser cache as well? Most issue like this caused by browser cache.

I’ve cleared the browser cache properly but it didn’t work. Could you please check it? Thanks

Hi,

Can you provide wp access + site url through the form in our profile page? We will have it checked. Please also copy your first message and put in the form as well.

Cheers! :)

Hi, has there any option to add filtering on the tour archive page? Like if I open a parent category archive page, then there should show a filter with the sub categories of that parent category? Thanks

Sorry, it doesn’t work that way :(

Hi, I’m working for a client. So I would like to know if there has any possibility to extend the tour category column size to 6? Currently there has maximum 5 columns option. Thanks

Hi,

Sorry, currently, it’s max at 5, in this case, you may put as 3 columns 2 rows.

If you have any further questions, feel free to submit a ticket in our support site ;)

Thank you very much! :)

Hi I have some questions on the features before purchasing the theme

1. is there a shopping cart available? (as in buyer can add multiple tours before checking out as opposed to checking out 1 by 1)

2. Is it possible for customer to check out directly? (meaning everyone is a guest, no option to register or login)

3. While playing with the demo the single tour function when choosing adult child student the prices are not displayed? Is there any feature to enable the display of the price and label (adult, chlld etc)?

Hi,

First of all, Thanks for your interest :)

1. Nope.

2. Currently, we don’t have option to disable it. But will consider for future update.

3. Currently not, but will consider for this as well.

Hi I am seeing some differences on my wesite’s mobile version and the theme version on tour categories pages https://aegeanoutdoors.com/tour-destination/multi-region/

Any idea why? Is there a theme update that i need to run, maybe? My theme is version 3.0.3

Hm, I just check from my mobile and it’s the same site. Can you provide screenshot with description about how it’s different so I can see clearly?

Can view tours list based on map?

Unfortunately, we don’t have that :/

Thanks for your interest by the way :)

another question please, Can I add options to tour price and according to customer select calculate the price?

not quite understand the question, so sorry :(

So I will show you how the pricing works here: http://take.ms/H2WB3U

Hi,

I am seconds away from buying this theme and I have several pre-purchase questions:

1. I am testing your demo and there are no ready page templates with a “filter sidebar”? I can see that, “search result page” has this feature. (example: https://demo.goodlayers.com/traveltour/search-tours/?tour-search=&tour-activity=&tour-destination=america&duration=&date=) Or do you have one?

2. Destination pages have a custom sidebar next to it (example: https://demo.goodlayers.com/traveltour/tour-destination/south-america/) Is it also possible to have the “filter sidebar” also, so that when you are at a destination page, you can still filter the tours.

3. Is it possible to change “banner photo” and add “description” on the Destination page? (example: https://demo.goodlayers.com/traveltour/tour-destination/south-america/)

4. Can I also customize the “filter sidebar” (include or exclude sections)?

5. Is it possible to customize and change the places of the “boxes” in the search field?

6. Is that possible to customize the booking form? We also want to sell some transfer and other variable products.

7. Is it possible to remove texts “Availability / Min Age / Max People”, as there is already icons which explains the points. And is it possible to include more icons in this section, such as “Language / Guide / Tour Type” etc… (Example: https://demo.goodlayers.com/traveltour/tour/argentina-great-diving-trip/)

Thanks!

Hi,

First of all, Thanks for your interest :)

1, In this case, you can place ?tour-search at the end of url directly. Like this : https://demo.goodlayers.com/traveltour/search-tours/?tour-search

2. Technically, you can but not as page. You have to put it in url directly like this : https://demo.goodlayers.com/traveltour/search-tours/?tour-search=&tour_category=&tour_tag=&duration=&date=&min-price=&max-price=&rating=0&tour-destination%5B%5D=america

3. Yes you can

4. Yes, you can customize the filter and create custom ones.

5. The fields positions are fixed. Unless, you change from the theme code directly

6. You can only customize the enquiry form, contact detail and traveller’s detail in booking process.

7. It’s possible but you have to use other method to create the list. We can help guide after purchasing.

Hi,

2. Technically, you can but not as page. You have to put it in url directly like this : https://demo.goodlayers.com/traveltour/search-tours/?tour-search=&tour_category=&tour_tag=&duration=&date=&min-price=&max-price=&rating=0&tour-destination%5B%5D=america

So, is this means that we can’t create a proper page for each “Destination”, that we can customize it as we want? ...because it’s a “search result based page”.... Am I correct?

As you are not in travel business, and I can understand this. You have absolutely created a fantastic theme….but the real structure of a travel site is HOME > DESTINATION (including tours list, categories, activities, search filter etc.) > TOUR DETAILS > BOOKING… And “Destination is the most important section of a travel website, because it’s where customers decide on which tour they will take… so more information/details are required in this section…

I guess this is a serious point that you should really consider and let us know if you are able to help to create this destination page properly, so we can re-consider the theme.

Thanks !

Hi,

Thank you so much for feedback. We will surely consider for this option in future update. :)

Can I use any URL structure in the website using that theme? Or else is there any hardcoded term like /tours or something on every page?

Also can you please let me know your skype or email address so I could clarify a few other changes which we may need to do on this template?

Hi,

1. The url structure will be as shown in the demo site.

2. The hard coding is not required. The demo site is created without hard coded. (Except some element in sidebar which is very small section. We have snippet code for them.)

3. You can email us to contact@goodlayers.com for further questions.

Thanks for your interest by the way :)

Hi, how can the administrator create a review? We only use the enquiry option in the theme, not actual payment.

Hi,

1. Admin can create the review in tour setting directly (at the bottom in the page that you create the tour)

2. You can disable the online payment from Tour Master panel and leave only enquiry form in this case.

Presale question:

When’s the next big update? I need the captcha feature for my client’s website. Thank you!

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, currently we can’t really tell the exact ETA but we are working really hard on this one.

Hi there,

Regarding the option when setting up a tour – Linking to an External URL – how do I make this appear in the same window rather than a new tab opening up?

Is there a piece of code I need to insert to block this new tab from opening and instead go to straight to the URL page?

I hope this makes sense. I essentially don’t want another tab opening to begin the booking process.

Thanks John

Thank you for your quick response. Having seen the sample you’ve sent – https://demo.goodlayers.com/traveltour/yachttour/tour/croatia-island-hopper-from-split-luxury-comfortable-yacht-5-days-4-nights/ is there any tutorial on how we can create that kind of effect (gallery, and tabs) ? Thank you.

Hello Team,

We are trying to add Tap Online Payment gate with tour master plugin but we didnt get documentation in theme files for adding our own payment gateway in tour master plugin, can you please guide or give us documentation for adding our own payment gateway with tourmaster plugin?

Awaiting for your kind response

What we can do is only to guide which files need to be done but you have to do cusotmization by yourself.

Please guide us which files need to be customized, we will do that by our own. Just give us a small overview?

Hi,

You can check the tourmaster/include/stripe/stripe.php file to see how stripe is integrated into our theme and try creating similar structure for this.

Hi there. Can a discount coupon be auto-generated when a viewer clicks from an advert on an external site or google ad?

Hi,

Unfortunately, we don’t have that feature :/

HELLO,

We purchased theme and plugin and still do not have access to support ticket system.

when we enter our purchase code it gives error on your website: “Sorry, that purchase code is for a different Envato product.”

WE NEED TO UPDATE THE PAYMENT SCRIPT URL FOR AUTHORIZE.NET

TRANSACTION INFORMATION NEEDS TO BE SENT TO OUR REMOTE CLIENT.

WHERE CAN WE UPDATE THE AUTHORIZE SCRIPTS SO THE CART SENDS COLLECTED CREDIT CARD DATA TO OUR SERVERS AND NOT STANDARD AUTHORIZE GATEWAY?

1. Try to logout first then, make sure that you login with your Envato account that purchased this theme. http://take.ms/zAT3G

2. Click on the ‘Submit ticket’ button and make sure that you select the correct theme here: http://take.ms/sCdO2 (Hotel Master), if still didn’t work, click on (Verify purchase with Envato) button, the green one below.

If still didn’t work, please send me the purchase code ( http://support.goodlayers.com/purchasecode.png ) via the form in our profile page. I’ll try checking on that for you.

OK. Still getting same error when we select Hotel Master.

Also, the last link you attached says “Forbidden access”

Submitting purchase code via form in your profile page now…

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT. YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!

Hi there. Great theme!

Couple of questions:

1. Is it possible to remove the text “Availability : ” that shows when filling out the Date Range (Availability) field? 2. If the Custom Code Title field is left blank, is it possible to not show the word “Price” when viewing the single tour? The tours I’m setting up don’t have prices listed. 3. Is it possible to set a new default template for the page builder when adding a new tour?

Thanks.

Thank you very much! :)

Just few questions:

1. Does the system have an Advance Booking discount feature? For Example a “x%” discount if a tour is Booked “x” months in advance.

2. Why in the Search Tour Page the Custom Filter are show as Type Filter? In the Tour Element you can chose as Search Field even all the Custom Filters. This issue confuses the user.

3. Do you plan a reset filter button in the next update? If an user made some mistake with the filter the only way to go back is use the go back button of the browser, or manually reset all the filters.

Many thanks.

Hi,

1. Nope we don’t have that.

2. Thanks for your feedback, we will consider about how to improve this ux in future update.

3. Will consider for this as well.

Thanks :)
