Hello, I am evaluating your theme for an upcoming automotive project and need to clarify its exact database architecture for mobile app integration. Could you please answer the following questions directly?

1. Vehicle Data Architecture: Are vehicles created as native, standard WooCommerce Products, or does the theme rely on a Custom Post Type (CPT) and custom meta fields for inventory management?

2. Attribute Mapping (Taxonomies): Do vehicle technical specs (e.g., Mileage, Fuel Type, Year, Condition) utilize native WooCommerce Attributes/Taxonomies? If I query the standard WooCommerce REST API (/wp-json/wc/v3/products), will these fields be completely visible in the payload response out-of-the-box?

3. Dynamic Search Filter: Does your homepage “Year/Make/Model” search widget filter standard WooCommerce product attributes, or does it run on a proprietary search engine built specifically for the theme?

4. Auction Plugin Compatibility: Is the theme fully compatible with the WooCommerce Simple Auctions plugin? Will its bidding forms and countdown timers render properly on your vehicle detail page layouts without breaking layout containers?

5. Elementor & Multi-Language: Is the vehicle detail page layout fully editable via Elementor (or Elementor Pro Single Product Templates)? Does the theme officially support WPML / Polylang for translating all custom vehicle fields?

Thank you! Looking forward to your response so we can move forward with the purchase.

Thanks for your interest in our products! You will find answers to your questions about our Automotive theme below, but I will also mention that we do have a brand new product that is about to be released that may be better suited for what you’d like to do. If you want to send an email to sales@themesuite.com we can send you more information about it.

1. Vehicles are stored as CPT and with post meta

2. Since they are a CPT they don’t store any vehicle data in WooCommerce.

3. Unfortunately same as #2 since they aren’t store in WooCommerce this isn’t applicable.

4. Not compatible out of box.

5. It does support WPML but not fully editable with Elementor.

Hi, I removed the theme from the old domain (otogaleri.mutfakyapim.com.tr) but I still get “purchase code already in use” error.

Can you reset the license for me so I can use it on my new domain: https://nedotomotiv.com.tr?

Thanks

We have got this reset for you!

I know my support has ended, but I only need you to answer a question for me. Why did my fliping card images stop working ? https://loddeskakel.se/ I cannot afford a new support- being a pensioner – but maybe you can still answer my question

Thank you so much – it worked !!!

Thank you so much – its working fine now – but I can’t find: Theme Options >> General Settings >> Listing Features Deactivation

The option Theme Options >> General Settings >> Listing Features Deactivation will only appear if you have the Automotive Listings plugin activated. If you are still not seeing it, make sure you are using the latest version of the theme and Automotive Listings plugin, maybe you have an older version prior to us adding this feature.

I have Automotive version: 13.3.2 as theme and child theme. It no longer accepting automatic updates. Let me know process for updating theme

In Automotive theme v13.3+ and Automotive Listings plugin v18.5.1+ we changed the authentication method to keep it working with the changes at Envato.

Assuming you have at least those versions or greater on both the theme and plugin, you should be able to just paste in your purchase code under Theme Options >> Update Settings to reactivate it.

If you are down-level on either one, you can also download the latest versions directly off of ThemeForest under the Downloads tab in your account and manually update them, and then add the purchase code for future automatic updates.

If for some reason your installation URL has changed you may also need to reset your license to reactivate it, here are the instructions on how to do that: https://support.themesuite.com/kb/faq.php?id=15

Hi. We are transitioning from our current DMS to a different platform. If we purchase your theme, what are our options for adding business tools (such as sales tools, bills of sale, accounting, etc.)? Also, is it possible to feed our inventory to other listing sites (AutoTrader, CarGurus, Kijiji) from your theme? Thanks

Thanks for your interest in our products! We have a bunch of options depending on what exactly you need. Please send us an email at sales@themesuite.com with the details of what you are looking for and we can go over the various options. Look forward to talking with you soon :)

Trying to reset my license, because it’s set to ouw development domain and not the production domain. I tried to login on your support site and pressed the link “Reset License” behind my Product but I received an error saying: “There was an error trying to reset this purchase code”. I then tried to open a ticket but I’m refused to enter a ticket because support has ended. I need to contact you to get my license to be reset. How can I reset so we can enter the license code to the correct domain link?

Please send us an email at support@themesuite.com including the purchase code you are having issues with so we can investigate. Thanks!

Does anyone know where I can find the changelog? The theme is supposed to have been updated, but we don’t know what’s included.

Here are the links to the changelogs. This update includes security improvements and fixes in both the theme and plugin so you should update both.

Hi,
The template has not received any updates since January (10 months ago).

This project has been abandoned?

Hi nairolf2013,

Thanks for reaching out, it’s nice to hear from you again :)

We just pushed out an update to the bundled plugins that should be published shortly on ThemeForest.

If there is something specific you’d like to see included in an update please let us know. We are always open to suggestions and comments as we are always looking to improve our products.

Thanks again for being a valued customer.

While viewing the live preview, I noticed the Carfax link is rendering in the title section on the listing page. Without searching through your temp demo area, there is of course an easy way to place that Carfax link/image in a smarter location like the side column, you know, where the vin number is, without writing CSS or editing a php file, right?

Looks funny, especially on mobile devices. Looks like the car model is named Carfax!

Thank you for the detailed explanation, now I understand what you are referring to. You are correct, the Carfax logo appears in the top area to the right of the title, though it doesn’t overlap it. Adjusting its position would require custom code, as there isn’t a built-in option for this in the theme.

If you’re looking for more flexibility, there’s a third-party company that offers a premium Inventory Management System compatible with our Automotive theme. It can be used as an upgrade to replace the bundled Automotive Listings plugin and provides full control over template customization. Unfortunately, that level of customization isn’t available with the included plugin.

If you’d like more information please don’t hesitate to email us or open a support ticket!

So, purchase your theme, then purchase some third party software in the “hope” that it might create a much needed feature, that should’ve always been available?

Yeah, that’s a bridge too far.

As I mentioned, I’ve been using Motors theme for clients, and it allows for a plethora of customization, but it is very bloated and moves ridiculously slow for both the admin section and site visitors. Was hoping Automotive might work better as it seems faster, but with your solution, we might be back to bloated.

I think you should find out the specific fix for this (avoid using absolute positioning), post it here for current users, and add it to the live theme demo. Quick, easy, no bloat!

Just my opinion. Thank you for your time. You’re very professional in your responses.

We appreciate your feedback and your suggestion to include Carfax portability within the Automotive Listings plugin. We’re always looking for ways to improve our products, and I’ve added your idea to our list of Feature Requests for future consideration.

Regarding your comment about the third-party system, I can personally confirm that it works very well. I’ve tested it myself, and it allows you to build fully custom layouts and templates for everything using a page builder, including the inventory search and vehicle detail pages. It’s also very lightweight, letting you enable only the features you need so there’s no unnecessary bloat. I can probably arrange for you to try a pre-purchase test copy if you would like to try it yourself.

Thanks again for considering our theme, we wish you all the best with your project, whichever direction you decide to take.

how can i add the information of each dealer or private seller on the single listing page?

We responded to your support ticket requesting temporary login details to investigate. Thanks! :)

Will there be updates? Thanks

Yes there will :)

My job is amusement ride manufacturing, but I really liked your car pages. This content richness could be very useful for my product details. So, is it mandatory that it’s about cars, or can the options be easily changed?”

Thanks for your interest in our products! The options can all be easily changed, all of the Listing Categories etc are completely customizable.

Does themesuite have a version for equipment or trailer sales? This theme looks awesome but there is a lot that wouldn’t apply in my case and I’d rather not remove alot of the features. Thanks!

Yes we do, please email us at sales@themesuite.com for more details

Hi, would there be a way to integrate my profile https://autoscout24.it directly with the theme? So when I upload a car there I can find it on my site too.

Sorry for the delay while we were looking into this. I believe it is possible, but would require some changes. Please send an email to sales@themesuite.com and we can discuss the options further. Thanks! :)

I’m interested in purchasing the theme. What’s the latest update?

Thanks for your interest in our products! The latest release is from May 9th which is v13.3.3 of the theme and v18.6 of the Automotive Listings plugin.

If you have any specific questions or if you are looking for any specific features please feel free to send us an email at sales@themesuite.com

I really like the plugin but it would be great if it were compatible with Elementor so I could customize the filter style.

There is an alternative option for full control over all of the different page templates and styles, if you want to send us an email at sales@themesuite.com we can send you some more information. Thanks! :)

How to add more then 52 items to Engines?

You should be able to add an unlimited number of terms to categories, there are no limits. It sounds like you have something else going on causing some sort of issue.

Please open a Support Ticket with more information about your website and administrator access so we can have a look at it for you. Thanks! :)

How to Link Models to Makes? By default, these operate independently, but a model depends on the make and doesn’t exist on its own. As a result, we get a messy collection of unrelated records when sorting. This is inconvenient for both visitors and moderators when adding cars – hundreds of entries where it’s difficult to quickly find the needed model or make.

The Make and Model automatically get linked together. I’m not sure why you would have a messy collection of unrelated records. Please open a Support Ticket with more information about your website and admin access so we can have a look at what the situation is. Thanks! :)

The single page social icons only include Twitter, Facebook and Pinterest. Possible to add Instagram and other icons?

The easiest thing to add / remove different social icons on the Single Listing page is to remove your sidebar widget for this under Appearance >> Widgets, and then use a plugin such as Social Media Share Buttons to customize whatever social sharing options you want to include in that sidebar area

has anyone found that when they try and use the included importer or WPALLImport some custom listing category fields don’t actually get updated and you have to go into the listing categories and manually insert the terms one by one? in order for the automotive search function to actually work correctly it’s VERY annoying! anyone found a fix for this?

WP All Import does not currently support adding terms to our listing categories directly. While we store all terms and categories separately from the imported listings, all the relevant data is housed in the same database and is fully accessible and writable. However, unless WP All Import has introduced new functionality since we last reviewed it, achieving this integration would still require custom code.

We do offer a separate Automatic Importer that is fully compatible. If you’re ever interested in learning more, feel free to reach out to us at sales@themesuite.com.
