how does the person register their property, does someone book and pay through the site? and I keep the commission on top of the reservation? how does your script work

Hi. Thank you for the comments

Register is a free process. You can register on any demo to see a live example.

Users send booking requests from the booking form.

Booking in WpRentals is an online process.

We have 2 options:

1. Instant booking

User sends request -> He is prompted to login -> He must pay the invoice (deposit) if that is set in admin and booking is confirmed if payment confirms. If deposit is 0, booking is confirmed without any payment.

This is instant booking https://demo1.wprentals.org/properties/apartment-in-jersey-city/ 

In demo1 we activated a deposit which must be paid. We also activated Woo Commerce payments (to process through other merchants if theme included merchants are not enough. Theme included merchants are PayPal and Wire Transfer)

This is instant booking with 0 deposit https://ibiza.wprentals.org/properties/west-town-3rd-floor-dorm/

2. Send booking and owner approves or rejects the request

User sends request (after he logins) -> Owner approves or Rejects the request -> If the request is approved user must pay the invoice (deposit) if that is enabled and booking is confirmed OR if deposit is 0, booking is confirmed when owner approves the request. Money goes to admin always.

After a booking is confirmed, owner can cancel a confirmed request at any time.

WPRentals can be used for multi owners or single (specific owners). If you allow it as admin, people register to add listings for rent and users register to send booking requests to property owners, similar to airbnb or homeaway.

The theme is designed for users to book properties between each other, and admin not to interfere (we have different options as you can see in demo)

The booking requires users register so as admin you have access to see who booked what, but you don’t need to interfere in the booking approval process (bookings can be approved by owner only – with his manual approval, if he doesn’t enable instant booking or with his approval, if instant booking is disabled).

As the admin you can ask for a deposit and a service fee (these can be the same value if you wish to take as a deposit just your service fee) in % or fixed value, and this value is deducted from the total booking. As the admin, you can choose if you wish to include in this deposit the cleaning and city fee or not. If you ask for a 100% deposit, the fees are automatically included.

The user will need to pay that deposit in order for the booking to be confirmed (even if the owner approves the booking request).

The money goes to the admin. The difference will be paid by the user to owner outside the theme (we have the option to pay the remaining value in the theme, but the money goes still to admin, so if you don’t wish that to exist, we can show you how to hide with CSS).

At the moment payment to owner cannot be done in the theme. We’re not sure if in the future we will be able to extend this functionality. If you make a decision please consider only the existing features.

Thank you

what parts are needed or the use of the element plugin? I do not like this plugin and I would like to know if it is possible to configure it without it

Hello marianadcz23, Thank you for the comment. Elementor is used only to create pages content. We have Bakery shortcodes and support for that as well as alternative. Most theme features come from theme options.

If you need further info or want to test our theme, please send a message from here https://themeforest.net/user/wpestate

Thank you

it is possible to completely change the login screen to a customized one

Hello Marian, Thank you for the comment. The login modal cannot be replaced. You can change the image in the modal – https://prnt.sc/yAG8mqt9Q3R4 , you can add mobile in register and you can replace type password so users get the pass by email.

Please look over our demos to understand what the theme can do and let me know any question you have. I can answer and clear any question before making a decision.

possible integration with airbnb, booking, GDS and also OTA

Hello. We only have ical sync support for calendar availability. We do not have GDS or OTA.

Thank you

do you have this script without being wordpress?

Hello. We do not have a script that is not wordpress. Thank you

how can change and control the order of the search result listings? now is show the latest added listing.

Hi. This change is done by code. Please open a ticket in support https://support.wpestate.org/ for development team to answer. Thank you

is it possible to use the search availability on another site? so when they search on another site they will be transferred to the main site with the result?

Hi. The shortcode is connected to Wprentals theme. You cannot use it on a 3rd party because it is not an inframe system.

I can advise where the code for the shortcode is Shortcode : in shortocodes.php function wpestate_advanced_search_function() at line 650

Thank you

oh so is not possible to use it in 3rd party sites?

I am afraid it is not possible.

Hi, can I synchronize the booking.com calendar with the calendar on this platform?

Hi,

You can use Icalendar feed option from the theme. You have all details on how it works in the below help article: https://help.wprentals.org/article/icalendar-import-export/

Thank you,

Hello there,

I have a couple of questions

Is it possible for a guest to pay with cash at their arrival when they already paid a deposit?

and

Is it possible to have an loading indicator when a new guest registers a new account?

and the last one

In some elements of the website i see an ‘LSEP’ icon? only on windows

Thank you

Hello. Thank you for the comment.

About 1st question – the booking becomes confirmed when deposit is paid. Remaining balanced payment is not mandatory through the theme.

About 2nd question – a new account sends user an email. Admin can add duplicate email to get a duplication of all emails sent, including new user. https://help.wprentals.org/article/duplicate-email/ ]

About 3rd question – I am not familiar with an icon LSEP. Please send a ticket in support with a screnshoot, you device details (what browser on windows), a link and we will be able to tell more i we see the icon directly on site.

Please use our client support https://support.wpestate.org/ if you need further help. This is also a private support where you can send us your site details (url and wp-admin access).

Which template is for rentals for computer products and services? can the https://office.wprentals.org template be customized for computer products and service rentals?

Also, I have another question, can I add the GitHub social login to this template?

Hello. Thank you for the comment.

Please let me know the specific features you need to have and I can advise if the theme supports them or not. I do not know what computer products and services imply to answer at the moment.

We do not have github social login.

Please look over our demos to understand what the theme can do and let me know any question you have. Office is one demo, but it is a the same theme on all demos. I can answer and clear any question before making a decision.

If you need further info or want to test our theme, please send a message from here https://themeforest.net/user/wpestate

Hi, Social Login doesn’t work. I tested to login with google account, but I could do nothing – I couldn’t book anything or place any listing. This feature seems to be useless actually.

It is working now. Great

Hello. Thank you for the follow up.

Is it possible I can use it for Property Buy and Sale?

Hi, Is it possible when you Zoom In the Map so the property Grid showing on right side should show only property which radius is selected or zoom in on map?

Just like if I zoom in ABC Town of Network so in grid of property It should only which are available in this area.

Mean the filter based on map visible portion.

Hello. Thank you for the comment.

We do not have this theme for sale and rent. Booking form always shows.

Rentals theme has radius search in half map https://prnt.sc/J6NrZe7jDqpt

You can test here https://main.wprentals.org/

Thank you

The display of the currency symbol in the elementor widget does not work. Support says it works for them. Take a look at their site demo and see for yourself

https://prnt.sc/7WllgGNh30hd https://iceland.wprentals.org/

Hello autopark312, Thank you for the comment and for the screenshots.

We only saw now the screenshot was for a specific widget, it does work everywhere else https://prnt.sc/RJr6qtLfy726https://iceland.wprentals.org/motorhome-and-campervan-hire-in-iceland/

We will solve this for sure for next update. We will follow up with you in ticket and send the solution sooner.

Thank you

Dear developer, If you set a fee to be paid with the booking and use Woocommerce Payments, then there is no notification that you only pay the down payment. Is there a option to show it on the checkout page and cart when you for example pay 500 of the 500 €?

Thanks a alot

Hi itsame, You can see the remaining balance in user dashboard or before going to pay, in the booking form total info. The order – when you start to pay – will only read the value that must be paid.

Hello there,

I have some questions.

Is it possible to send the invoice and payment link the mail after the owner accepts the booked date and sends invoice? (now the email says: check your account on the page. It does not include the invoice in the mail).

The advanced search only shows the properties that have exact the same max guest number as the searches for. If i want to book for like 4 persons, but i only have properties for 2 persons it doesnt show anything. is it possible then to show 2 properties of 2 guests?

thanks in advance,

Oke thank you, and another question. I’ve translated the website with WPML and if i navigate to /my-reservations in the usermenu it works in every language except one (dutch). it looks like the url is broken, how can i fix this?

’ For search, you must change compare for guest to greater and it will work as you wish. ’ is this also possible with the advanced search implemented in elementor?

Hi.

You can put greater in all search forms, including Elementor form builder.

For the 1st question, I am not sure. Normally WPML needs all content translated. Pleased check the translation of the page in the language you use.

This is a good theme. How does admin manage payouts to rental owners? and the system auto deduct the host fee from the owner to admin?

Hello, Thank you for the interest in our theme. We do not support payment to owners. Payouts are not part of the theme functions. Money arrives in admin account if you set deposit required. Admin can take only his service fee with deposit, but payment to owner is not possible from admin account.

Please look over our demos to understand what the theme can do and let me know any question you have. I can answer and clear any question before making a decision.

Users who can add properties / listings can add / edit the submitted properties in their dashboard account, yes.

Pre-purchase question: When someone rents an item, before they pick the item up is it possible for owner/host of item to take photos of it and document/mark any existing damages? Likewise when the item is returned, the person that rented it and is returning it, post photos and complete their return? Is it possible using this theme? I loved the demo btw, keep up the good work.

Hello, I normally get a message of balance to be paid even after booking is confirmed and it still shows pay invoice in full.

Its a website with a single user which is the admin.

Hi. The balance to be paid shows if user pays only a deposit less than 100% to site admin. You can change to 100% if you wish. We have videos here https://help.wprentals.org/article/1-20-how-to-work-with-deposit-fee-and-service-fee/

Hello, I have gone through your reply & i have crosschecked my work already. I discovered that when users sign up, they are automatically added as owners even when they have the subscriber role in the admin. I have also added my username as the only one that can submit property as advised here https://help.wprentals.org/article/use-wprentals-for-a-single-property-single-owner/ but still having the same issue

Hello. Thank you for the follow up. We cannot replicate. Here https://tenerife.wprentals.org/ we limit owner account to a specific username. Who registers is user https://prnt.sc/bFtL6AICT0K9
