nice template! does it support RTL?

Hi!

Yes it is RTL ready!

if there is a demo or live website?

RTL demo not available for preview at this moment.

I have just bought the theme. How can I change the contact details under the contact page?

Hi,

The contact details can be directly changed from the contact page. Because the background of the builder is white and the texts are white, most probably they are a bit harder to find, but they are there: https://i.imgur.com/k5L1IB1.png

is Seller and Buyer are limited to get in touch before they make a payment to the website? Because what if after auction finished, seller and buyer gets in touch and makes a real sale offline? Is there any function for preventing it?

Hi,

Such situations are inevitable. Usually if the end-user website is part of a very small community, and people knows each-other then be sure that some deals will also be made offline.

Preventing this behavior depends on each website / business type.

Recommended actions to prevent such situations: Hide bidder username. Hide vendor tab. Hide vendor profiles.

Pre-sale questinos: 1. How can I monetize this website?

Hi, Please take a look at this article: Reasons Why iBid is the Best Auction Theme. The best way to win cash by using our theme is to set up vendor commissions as per your wish. You can also add Google Ads and also sell your products (or simply do dropshipping sales).

Hi Sir, Do u have live auction ?

Hi,

Can you give us an example of live auction website? If you are referring to real time auctions, yes, if you get outbid by someone else, you will see their offer modified in real time.

Best regards

Can the WordPress API handle the placing bids and listing of latest bids in Ionic?

The theme can be used along with the WordPress REST API. There is no limitations on that.

Thank you

Hi, why the countdown is not displayed in the product thumbnail despite being activated in the shop & auction setting ? I have already reported this problem and you ignore it. (elementor countdown demo).

In the new update, this issue only affects the demo homepage

Hi, this is a suggestion for improvement

Hi, I logged into your Real Estate Demo. It uses the WCFM plugin. There is no Auction option on the side panel. When I click on Products, it gives me multiple options. It is not just for Auctions. There are many things on the dashboard that are not relevant to Auctions. This is very distracting and confusing to the person creating an auction. Do you not have a dashboard that is exclusively for Auctions?

Hi and thank you for being interested in our auctions & shop theme

First of all, the WCFM plugin is main purpose is for online shopping. We’ve extended it to also use auctions (the free version of this plugin also supports auctions, with our theme), otherwise you have to get their PRO version of WCFM.

Of course, it comes with multiple features, such as Capabilities – (see docs) – where you can disable vendor functionalities with a few click only, directly from your admin dashboard.

Note: We have a dedicated team for theme customization jobs. If you are interested in a custom made dashboard/optimized; we can make you an offer for the development process. For this you have to send your brief at https://modeltheme.com/go/theme-customization 

Auctions = Products; all of them are found under the Products tab from the WCFM dashboard.

Hi, could we use any demo? For eg. could I use the Real Estate demo for fundraising instead of the Fundrasing demo?

Hi!

Yes, you can import any demo from this theme. The theme comes with a user friendly demo importer and allows you to import demos with one click online.

See online docs to understand how it works: http://docs.modeltheme.com/ibid/#installation5

Best regards!

Raised a support ticked 2 days ago with some urgent issues, but have had no response.

Hello I have 2 questions before buying the theme. 1. Can I use custom fonts with it? and 2. Can I have custom fields under products based on category so the vendor when will add a product will get ie. Type: Saloon, Engine:2000cc tire: etc instead of only title and description box for the filtering works better.

Looking forward

Hi and thank you for being interested in our theme,

1. By default, our theme panel comes with Google Fonts integrated and you can use most of the fonts from the Google Fonts library. This isn’t a limitation when it comes with local fonts (for example) – because you can use this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/use-any-font/ to embed any font in any format.

2. Our theme is compatible with 4 different marketplace plugins (from these, the WCFM also supports attributes – the free version. On PRO version each one supports attributes).

You can test the feature our by following this link: https://ibid-wcfm.modeltheme.com/store-manager/products-manage/ and login with our test credentials: auctioner/123456

You will see the attributes below when you add a new product: Click the image to view it at full-size

Hi, in the new update, the demos not correctly imported, no countdown displayed. Thanks to chek it (tested in fresh installation, php 7.3, latest wp and woocommerce, elementor demo)

Hello,

In this update , we added a toggle for the countdowns on products, make sure to check Theme Panel > Shop Archived > enable “Countdown date Status”

Regards

yes, but not displayed in the product thumbnails (grid or list page)

Hi,

Please send us an email via this form https://themeforest.net/user/modeltheme#contact (don’t forget to include your FTP and Wordpress admin credentials) and we will check asap.

Hi iBid -

I’m not sure why this seems to never get fixed with each update.. but, the “magnifying glass” overlaps the auction countdown time.

Have a look at the screenshot taken on my iPhone..

Best, Winners!

Hello Model Theme.. are you guys abandoning this theme already??

Hi there and thank you for reaching out,

In the meantime, we just checked our help desk platform and found out that all of your tickets are already solved and no other new tickets are open.

I also discussed with the agents responsible for your tickets and it seems that in your end there is browser cache. Here you can see the last reply from our help team: https://modeltheme.ticksy.com/ticket/2546569/

As a quick solution for your screenshot, all you have to do is to Copy and Paste this code in your Theme Panel – Styling Settings – Custom CSS box:

@media only screen and (max-width: 767px){
    body .overlay-components .component a {
        margin-top: 5px !important;
        margin-left: 5px !important;
    }
}

In order to get faster responses to your inquiries(if there will be any in the near future), we really encourage you to open a help request at https://modeltheme.com/support#new-request

Please let us know if we can help you with anything else!

Hi,

First of all, make sure to check that the correct timezone for your country is well set. You can check this in Settings – General – Timezone:

If you already did this and still see differences on the countdowns, please drop us an email at support@modeltheme.com and we will look into.

Hi

I’m trying to look at the examples demos (automotive) but the links don’t appear to work?

Can you advise

Hi,

It is back now! Our hosting is transferring this theme from an old hosting package to a more performant and faster one. If you still see it down in the next hour, this will be the reason why!

Demo link: https://ibid.modeltheme.com/automotive/

Thank you for understanding and sorry for the inconveniences!

Hello, Pre Sales Questions.

1. Item condition filter, can these be changed / added to?

2. I would like to use my own page layout as on the demos a few things are an issue on mobile. Will the Auction section pull in to Elementor Pro to make a product page template?

3. Any plans for an App, if so ETA?

Many Thanks

Hi and thank you for being interested in our auctions & shop theme

  1. This can be modified via a custom modification. Our team can help you with this via pay per hour service. For estimates please open a ticket at https://modeltheme.com/go/theme-customization.
  2. At this moment, two demos are available for the Elementor page builder. (The main home and the Countdown Auctions demos). Basically the blocks from these demos can be used in Elementor (Free and PRO).
  3. We don’t have an ETA for the mobile app, but we are sure that we will release an app for this theme.

Have a great day!
