Hi Pagick,
For some reason your datebook theme have sections that does not work or you activate something and then another section does not work anymore.
Here are examples:
1. Approve new tours automatically
Yes
Approve edited tours automatically
Yes
These settings do not work and the tours only work when I turn these settings off.
2. Then you have this weird section also under Tours that does not work at all
Enable my tours Yes Introduction text Example: Invite me to your country so we both have funny time
why that is there, no one knows but it does not work.
3. Classified ads keeps saying ‘you do not have permission to post an ad, complete profile’
The only time this section works is if you disable ’ User must complete his profile before using the website’
I have tried solutions based on older comments, but they don’t work so don’t suggest them again, they don’t work.
4. Then this section does not work at all and it has never worked
Wish to travel Enable Mandatory Use in the search form Visible to administrator only
5. Manually activate new profile: this section does not work.
You have sections on the site that does not work and there’s constantly bugs. Whenever someone does an update the whole site goes into errors, you need to get this plugin working properly man.
People keep suggesting good features for you to add because it will make the theme much better but then you go and add sections that is not relevant or not important. This plugin is nice but it’s frustrating and you need to get it functioning properly please.
About me ‘Tip’ is also not showing
Woocommerce recurring subscription does not work aswell
Hi Hermanroos. I will check all issues you described. After that, I will be able to respond with some solutions. Thank you for your messages.
Cool thanks, we discussed an important feature months ago where users are able to delete individual messages when they have made a mistake or correct the message, this is an important feature to add because users make mistakes and want to change or delete the individual text in the text box. Please look into it to add to the theme. Also tours and classified ads must be added to a subscription, that will give us more control because now anyone can post an ad or tour on any subscription. Please consider this too.
Now when I enter an email address under -security-moderation, my whole site goes white and the entire moderation top bar disappears.
The moderation page has changed. Do the following:
Go here and create a new page: WordPress -> Pages.
Give it a title “Moderation” and slug “moderation”.
In this page, select the template “DateBook Moderation.
Done!
I did do this when I installed the theme and it’s been working fine, only when I put in an email in the moderation box does it give me this error, I even went to gender field and resaved, still gives me error. All ‘Tips’ under the reserved field sections is not showing.
Hi Pagick!
Please pin paid classified ads to the top and highlight them in color. Users are willing to pay for this.
Hi again Pagick.
I’m re-pasting the links to the messages I haven’t received a response to for 25 days:
1) https://themeforest.net/comments/31751037
2) https://themeforest.net/comments/31750175
and I’ll add another important question:
Are the Datebook theme and plugin GDPR compliant? If the user wants their data, how do I create the file to send it? I know WordPress has a specific feature for this (exporting and deleting data), but the theme and plugin must be compatible. There are very hefty fines for this.
PS: Obviously, I’m not talking about plugins that install the cookie consent banner.
thank you
Hi RaCLD. Those both links do not lead to comments. I was not able to read those comments. Sorry.
Regarding GDPR. I have not learnt this question yet. Sorry.
Hello, there is no way for the user to use the site after registering without the main admin activating the profile, ads and photos, because for each user registered on the site, the admin must activate them, which is annoying.
Hi. I have already explained about this question by email.
Yes,thank you i send another emsil for you please see you and help me for remove image for the profil in the post add
Hi, the theme’s frontend looks fine and fast, but is there any backend optimization for good performance under high-load? Will search perform fast enough for 70K registered users? I believe that if all user’s fields are stored in wp_usermeta table – that might be a bottleneck. Won’t the chat freeze if there’re 500 users online?
Hi. Yes, this is what we can boast about. DateBook is the fastest and the most optimized theme among WordPress dating themes and even not WordPress themes.
No, our demo websites do not use any cache or optimization plugins or something else. DateBook is located on a simple shared hosting server.
You can start with 1 dollar hosting server. But later, when you have 70k users, you will have to hire more powerful server.
The problem is not with DateBook. The problem is with WordPress. You should think about WordPress, if WordPress is able to accept 70k vistors. For this, you should hire special WordPress optimized server.
Hi, Pagick! The photos on the website stopped displaying again. Please help.
https://www.screenpresso.com/cloud/Cj3x6y5UjZ4M/Two users don’t have a default photo installed https://www.screenpresso.com/cloud/jPnjm5SVDan4/
Hi, Pagick! Why don’t you help me?
Hi MihailovRA.
On the first screenshot, that bug was in old versions. Try to install the latest version of the theme 4.9.7.
On the second screenshot, image does not become the default photo. It is difficult to say. Perhaps, some cache works. Try to update the page in the browser with CTRL + F5.
I apologize for not replying in time. I was out of the office.
I have Version 4.9.7 and this still happens sometimes!
I will have to check why images disappear. This must not happen because this bug was fixed. But yes, I will check it again and try to fix it in the next update. Thank you.
Hi Pagick.
I know you’re busy, but I’ve been waiting for your response for 15 and 18 days on two topics:
1) https://themeforest.net/comments/31751037 2) https://themeforest.net/comments/31750175
Thank you
Can you please consider to setup a “supporters only” ticket system to prioritize supporters over non-supporters? I understand you want to give the support for free but many creators require a license within an external portal to give support. If you stop giving away milk for free people tend to buy it. This template is creating or helping creating businesses that probably make some money and i think they should give back to you and your team.
to all others: DON’T BE CHEAP!! you get a theme for 60$ and then expect unlimitted support for free? there is only one outcome, and i’ve seen it before, authors will stop developing the theme because it is no longer worth the fight, the time, and the energy they put into it.
It is basic decency to pay for a service people deliver and Pagick is doing and amazing job – so why not pay him?
by the way, themeforest is not protecting users against deactivation of themes. the authors rights are specifically stated in the TOS of themeforest and all authors have the right to discontinue a theme in themeforest at any time without warning.
and this is why I am supporting authors i bought and use products and services for.
again: DONT BE CHEAP its maybe 30$ per 6 months or even half with the promo (if you renew earlier)
Hi, LeonGeb. You’re absolutely right. From now on, I’ll follow your advice. You and customers like you will always have higher priority than free users. I’ll reply to you first. Just want to point out that if I don’t reply to you right away, it doesn’t mean I’m replying to free users at that time. I simply don’t have the time to reply (maybe I’m out of the office). Respect. Thank you for your support.
Hello Pagick,
I am still on the v4.9.5. As mentioned earlier about 15 days ago v4.9.6 had issues with woocommerce. I still see some other comments from others. Is there anything important that would need updates after 4.9.5 at this time? I would prefer to have proven tested release available before I update.
So please let me know who needs updates after 4.9.5 and when will be a stable release available?
Thank you!
Hi bellsfasta. Could you please remind what issue with WooCommerce you have? Thank you
It’s this one – https://themeforest.net/comments/31745419
Hi bellsfasta. Yes, I remember your question. I checked it at that time but could not find any issue on our side. Perhaps, we use one combination of settings, and you use another combination. That’s why I cannot catch the error.
As I understand, you try to connect a subscription plan to a WooCommerce product here: WordPress -> DateBook -> Subscription plans -> you open a plan for editing -> select a WooCommerce product in this field “WooCommerce Subscription”. After you click the Save button, you see the error. Right?
Also, WordPress sends an email with error description to your email box. Could you forward that email message to me please? In this case, I could fix the error very fast. I apologize for the delayed response. Thank you.
hi Pagik I also sent an email with the problem but I didn’t receive a response. some words appear with an asterisk * for example if I add an ad with the text femeie in Romanian the word femeie appears with an asterisk * can you give me some information on what it could be and how I can solve this, many thanks!
Hi tenciuionutiulian. Asterisks appear instead of words, because those words are prohibited here WordPress -> DateBook -> Dashboard -> Word Filter.
You entered those words here WordPress -> DateBook -> Dashboard -> Word Filter. If the theme finds them in profile description, classified ads, and tours, then the theme replaces them with asterisks.
Thank you! indeed this was the problem, I had forgotten that I added words there, the problem has been solved, many greetings.
Good

Hello All, I have 2 issues: 1. Every new subscriber become administrator directly and use my own user. 2. the admin Nav. Bar stopped working after the last update, it gives me page not found.
anybody has an idea what is happening ?
The admin Nav. Bar stopped working after the last update, it gives me page not found. Can someone please tells me how to fix it ..
all moderation pages does not work, “page not found”.
Create a new page. Give it a slug “moderation”. Select the template “DateBook Moderation” in this page. Done! Now, the moderation page must work.
Regarding a new subscriber as administrator. Go here WordPress -> Settings -> General -> New User Default Role -> select “Subscriber”.
Regarding “DateBook Moderation” template… There is no template with this name..
See screenshot https://ibb.co/mFNbbMd5
Did you upload the latest theme? It looks like you uploaded the latest plugin but not the theme. The DateBook Moderation template is located in the theme folder.
I uploaded latest theme and the latest plugin, and I just uploaded the latest theme again but still no (DateBook Moderation template).
Check, this folder must have this file: wp-content/themes/datebook-theme/page-datebook-moderation.php
If this file exists, then you must know what is going on your site and find the reason why this file does not show in the template list.
People need to learn to use he search function in this comments section.. srsly….
Please if form doesn’t show on homepage what do we do, homepage menu is Home in the new theme, is it supposed to be Homepage, do I need to reinstall?
I replied by email. Please, check your email box.
im trying to translate the inicial form of registration to Portuguese-BR. I already put Portuguese BR, translated plugin and theme etc…. but stay in english
and all moderation pages does not work, “page not found”.
1) The theme has a lot of translation files in its folder “languages” (here wp-content/plugins/datebook/languages), and the same “languages” folder in the theme folder.
In this folder, you can find the files “datebook-pt_BR.po” and “datebook-pt_BR.mo”. Use them to translate the theme.
Here is a guide on how to translate the theme https://www.pagickthemes.com/how-to-translate-the-theme-in-loco-translate/
2) Create a new page. Give it a slug “moderation”. Select the template “DateBook Moderation” in this page. Done! Now, the moderation page must work.
Hello, Pagick! Please work out the errors related to Rank Seo Math.
Please pay attention to the presentation of SEO details, SEO description and SEO title in the WP admin panel wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=profile
and pay attention to this error in User Profiles when editing them in the WP admin panel. https://radikal.cloud/i/010.JyxOHH
Hi ATerentyev. Thank you for your message. Ok, I will check the issues about SEO and featured image in a profile.
Hello, Could you please tell me how to disable background images in user profiles? I want the profiles to display without any background image — just a plain background. Thank you!
Thanks for getting back to me! I want to remove the large background/cover image on the Single Profile page for all profiles, regardless of whether they are featured or not. The goal is to show profiles with no background image at all (just a plain background). I tried CSS like: .single-profile .profile-header, .single-profile .profile-header::before { background-image: none !important; background: none !important; } but it looks like the theme sets it via inline styles (or JS), so the image keeps reappearing. Is there an official way to disable it? a toggle in theme options, a filter/hook (e.g. return empty URL for the profile header background), or the recommended template override path (e.g. template-parts/profile-header.php) to safely remove the inline background? Site example: https://friends128.com/ (DateBook) I only want to remove the header background on the Single Profile view—not the grid/mosaic cards on Search/Home. Thanks a lot! Best regards, Gennadii
Hi. Disable this option WordPress -> DateBook -> Dashboard -> Featured profiles -> Enable default background images for Featured profiles.
At the moment, if the theme does not find your uploaded background images, then the theme loads its own background images for featured profiles (from this folder wp-content/plugins/datebook/assets/images/patterns). But this function will be removed in the next update.
If you do not want to show random background images, then you can delete all images in this folder. In this case, only your background images will be loaded uploaded here WordPress -> DateBook -> Dashboard -> Featured profiles -> Featured background images.
after update my menu is showing only at a specific screen size. the top menu toggler navbar-toggler ps-3 pe-3 collapsed only appears at a screen of max 920px.
Its only not opening when clicking on it.
I checked our demo site on many devices with different screen sizes. It is ok. The menu appears on all devices and work/open.
Perhaps, some third-party css style affects the menu on your site.
I tried this many times without plugins and i was able to replicate the issue on production and staging.
Hi Pagick,
I am testing now the latest release thoroughly and will post each bug seperately to follow up better.
Moderation Panel
Moderation Panel is no longer showing although it is setup correctly as a page from the last release.
Looking into the code, the class datebook-moderation-panel shows display:none
This is nothing I have added as a custom code. I am able to enforce it with costum-css but I think this will need a fix.
for the ones who are not familiar:
to enforce the moderation panel you can add the following code to themes>customize>additional css
Please make a backup or test on staging first:
nav.navbar.navbar-dark.navbar-expand.bg-dark.opacity-75.p-0.datebook-moderation-panel { display: unset !important; }
Hi LeonGeb. Yes, the moderation class has display: none. But the CSS file also has a new code “display: block !important”. So the moderation panel is hidden for milliseconds only at the beginning of page loading. After the css file is loading, the moderation panel must display.
Solution: clean the cache and update the page in browser with CTRL + F5.
hi pagick, I tried this multiple times but the moderation panel does not appear without me enforcing it with custom css. as always im testing this with no plugins activated and on staging.
Hi LeonGeb. At least you did it. You solved the issue, and the moderation panel appear. Great. But please, do not think that you will have to solve all issues on your side. Of course, I will try to fix/solve all issues myself. Thank you.
hi pagick, the problem is that while you do corrections, some are just taking too long. I.e. the amount showing in the woocommerce dashboard eventhough its free, which i brought up many times over 4 months now. This may not be a huge point for people without business or not paying taxes for their business but it puts businesses like mine on the spot of tax-authorities. I never expected to resolve issues myself but I will also not wait until its too late I get trouble with the chamber of commerce because of a bug that was brought up months ago. Once its fixed I can always revert the additional code to keep the theme clean for future updates.
Hi Pagick,
I created the childtheme yesterday but when i activate it shows me only the footer but no other content. When inspecting the page, i can see that the body consists only of this part showing no error.
It looks like <main class=”container”></main> is beint output by the template as a empty section.
I tried to copy page-datebook.php to the child theme but that didnt work either.
The container remains empty. Can you help?
hi pagick, i was able to fix the amount issue (https://themeforest.net/comments/31670534) by adding code to the functions.php (parent theme). The price is set to 0 when its free and its showing correctly in the woocommerce order summary.
I just need this to be in the child theme which currently breaks my theme. can you help?
Hi LeonGeb. I do not understand fully why the amounts are different.
Actually, you must set the price the same both in WooCommerce Product and in Subscription plan. In this case, the amount will be exactly what you set.
For example: go here WordPress -> WooCommerce -> Products -> open a product for editing -> set the price 0 (zero).
go here: WordPress -> DateBook -> Subscription plans -> open a plan for editing -> set the price 0 and also select a product above in the field “WooCommerce Subscription”.
Done! Now the price must be 0 when a user pays. Everywhere, the price must display 0.
If I misunderstood you, then some screenshots could help me understand the issue better and faster.
How does the child theme breaks your theme? The child theme does not have any code. The child theme must work the same way as the parent theme. It cannot affect your site differently.
@amounts you are describing how to make a subscription free in general, not by gender.
HTR: set pricing for both datebook and woocommerce (as you described) and set i.e. 200$
in datebook subscriptions set the subscription to Free for female.
Now login to a female account (dont use shadowing) and go to subscription
What you see (which is correct or at least ok) the original price (200$) with the green text that you can get this for free (because its a female account)
When you click on the purchase button you will see the breakdown (sub, vat, total) still showing 200$
Now, when you purchase it, it will not ask for payment or doesnt even display payment options (so its making the subscription technically free) and you can purchase it.
now as admin go to woocommerce orders look up the last purchase and there you will see that the amount total is still 200 which should be 0 because it was for free.
Conclusion: While for the user its free, in terms of woocommerce order and of course the tax rules it was NOT free. Which (again) means that in my tax statement, these are added as purchased and not giveaway or promotion. So i have to pay taxes for it.
I can do a video with a side by side comparison but i really think i explained this thourougly and at multiple occations.
thanks Leon
and just for comparison and transparency:
when i use the additional code i see this
when i login as the femal acocunt and go to subscription, it still shows me the original price and the text that i can get it for free (which is again ok)
but when i purchase it and it takes me to the cart, the price is zeroed. after purchase and going to the woocommerce orders, i lookup the recent purchase and see that there it also shows as 0.- purchase.
conflusion:
correct handling of prices
correct reports
correct tax statements
no jail for me 
@childtheme i created a basic child theme connected the parent accordingly and when i switch to the childtheme it shows me the blank page. maybe i am overseeing something. I ddi check the documenattions online on how to create a childtheme, datebook has no such section.
i think the general problem is that datebook is pulling many pages/templates and i am obviously missing all these templates on my childtheme. it would be helpful if you could document how to create a childtheme with the requirements needed.
There is a problem with 3rd-Party-Editors. I am using WPBakery and its being overwritten with other editors (meaning when i open a page or post, it shows another editor eventhough in my bakery settings for pages and posts the WPBakery plugin is to be prioritized). I have deactived the Gutenberg editor and for some reason even when i deactivate the Otter editor, it still shows as an editor which is a little scary.
Hi. Today, I will check the issues you described. And it all will be fixed. Thank you much.
please disregard, this is working after reinstalling the plugin
