Hi
I am thinking about purchasing your theme however I have a few questions first.
My client does not require a booking system as they will be using one off site so all I need is a button saying “book now” instead of any onsite reservation making. Would it be easy to remove all on-site booking capabilities?
Which leads onto my next question, does this theme come with a file to make it look as is in the demo?
Kind regards,
Ciaran
Hi Ciaran,
Thanks for your interest.
The booking system could be easily removed, I’d be happy to advise how to do this via support.
I’ll add the plugin option to remove the booking functionality soon.
Regarding demo data, the theme comes with an import data file. It’s not the same content as the demo but it will create the basic structure of the website which should be enough to get you started.
Kind regards
Hi I purchased the theme and was wondering how to set the landing page to one of the home page’s? By that I mean when I browse to the URL that the page shows up as say home page 1
Thanks for purchasing Ciaran!
You can set the homepage by going to “Settings > Reading” and selecting “A Static Page” and choosing your homepage from the “Frontpage” selection.
Hope that helps!

It does indeed! Thanks for the quick and helpful support!

Sorry for all the questions but for google analytics the tracking code information is
<script> (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i[‘GoogleAnalyticsObject’]=r;i®=i®||function(){ (i®.q=i®.q||[]).push(arguments)},i®.l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o), m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m) })(window,document,’script’,’//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js’,’ga’);
ga('create', 'UA-44226558-1', 'ec2-54-229-81-189.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com');
ga('send', 'pageview');</script>
Do I just copy and paste that into the google analytics section in the general settings of the theme settings? I tried to do this but it is not recording any information on google analytics.
Hi ciaranverdon,
Yep just paste the full code Google gives you and add it in the “Google Analytics” field.
The data should show up in Google after a few hours, so just wait a while and check back later

Hi,
is it possible to place some individual text/html on the home site?
Hi evergrowing,
Thanks for your interest.
Sure this is possible with a tiny bit of modification to the theme which I’m happy to help with via support.
Kind regards
Thank you, quitenicestuff, for your swift reply!
So, to recap:
1.) This will come available before June 2014?
5.) It is NOT possible to add price ranges, other than weekends/weekdays. i.e. we cannot set different prices for January 1st till April 25, and then a different price for April 26 till June 21st, etc?
6.) It is NOT possible to choose a specific room and book it directly for a certain period? Or what do you mean by going through the booking system multiple times?
Thank you in advance for your patience,
Best regards,
Bart
Hi Bart,
1.) Yes I plan to add this functionality long before June 2014
5.) Currently no but as mentioned I plan to add this functionality soon
6.) It is possible to do this, just go to the booking page, enter your dates and if the specific room is available you can select and book it
Kind regards
Thank you, very much.
I will advise my client to purchase your theme. I find your approach very convincing. How can I be updated when these new functionalities are implemented? (as my client might want to wait until then)
Cheers, Bart
You’re welcome Bart.
There is a “Changelog” at the bottom of the item description page which lists what each update contains: http://themeforest.net/item/soho-hotel-responsive-hotel-booking-wp-theme/5576098
Kind regards
Great! – Much obliged!
Dear quitenicestuff,
Your theme and its functionality are looking great.
We are currently working with Hotelpress (Vietnamese), but are running into many compatibility issues (doesn’t work with WP 3.6.1 – WPML latest version, etc.)
Six questions:
1. ) Does your theme have the possibility to make bookings for a minimum amount of days, in certain periods? Example: We would like to block bookings for only one or two days in the summer season, and set the minimum to three days for a certain period.
2.) Does the WPML compatibility include using URLs like: mydomain.com/en/rooms (better for seo) rather than: mydomain.com/rooms/?lang=en
3.) Does your theme allow for bookings without advance payment, as an option?
4.) Do you guarantee compatibility with upcoming WP and WPML releases?
5.) Is it possible to enter price ranges for certain calender periods, in addition to weekdays/weekend rates?
6.) Is it possible to book each room individually?
My apologies for asking so many questions, but I’m very interested in your theme.
Thank you in advance for your answers.
Regards,
Bart
Hi Bart,
Thanks for your interest.
1.) This kind of advanced booking functionality isn’t currently available but I’ll be adding much more functionality to the plugin over the next few months and this sort of thing will be included
2.) Sure, but this would be entirely WordPress / WPML functionality
3.) Yes you can book a room without paying a deposit, the booking system will indicate the deposit hasn’t been paid. Or you can turn the payment system off entirely and just accept bookings with no payment
4.) Yes take a look at the other items in my portfolio, some are over a year old and we still provide updates to maintain compatible and remove any bugs
5.) You can add price ranges for weekends/weekdays and adults/children
6.) Yes you would just need to go through the booking system multiple times
Kind regards
Could you please post some screen shots with the back end of the booking system? I’d like to see how the plugin works before I buy this theme. Also, is it possible to add different price filters (such as get 10% off if you book 7 days or more)?
Hi SugarToastDesign,
I’ve just added screenshots of the accommodation/booking system in the item description, see the “Features” section
Kind regards
Hi, I have a question.
Has the theme a Child Theme?
Hi GarajeGrafico,
Currently Soho Hotel doesn’t come with a child theme but I’ll be adding one in a future update within the next week or so.
Kind regards
Hi, is there any way you can add an Icon and box for Yelp under the custom social widget and in the theme options section.
Hi shivasmaharaj,
I’ll add this in the next update due for release in a couple of days.
Kind regards
Would that be in whats now 1.2 or a subsequent version?
It will be in the next update shivasmaharaj
To see what has been added in each update you can check the “Changelog” at the bottom of the item description page here: http://themeforest.net/item/soho-hotel-responsive-hotel-booking-wp-theme/5576098
Kind regards
Thank you sir
Hi shivasmaharaj,
Just a heads up, the update is available to download now and contains a Yelp icon for the social widget now.
Kind regards
Hi Just purchased, how can I can locate easily the JS controls for booking form (dates on first page) and contact form ? Thanks for you help
Hi triptop,
Thanks for purchasing!
The JavaScript for the booking and contact forms can be found in ‘js/scripts.js’.
Hope that helps!
If you have any other questions feel free to open a support ticket and i’ll be happy to help: http://quitenicestuff.ticksy.com/
Kind regards
I Know, I have included them In my HTML page, but nothing happend ? help please ;-(
I’m just trying to make it work with the HTML version, not the WP. So i included them in my Index.html page and contact.html, but the control does not work. Am I forgetting something else ?
Hi triptop,
The JavaScript validation is linked to the form IDs/classes used in the WordPress version so I’d recommend checking to make sure they match the JavaScript code.
If you have any other questions please could you open a support ticket and i’ll be happy to help: http://quitenicestuff.ticksy.com/

Hi !
Thanks for this great theme ! What is the booking plugin you use ? It seems to be awesome !
Thanks !
Hi cedric_charles,
Thanks! The theme uses it’s own custom built plugin to handle accommodation and bookings.
Kind regards
Hi !
Do you plan to make a standalone plugin? This could be great because no booking plugin is as complete as yours !
No plans currently, but it’s definitely something I will consider in the future
Kind regards
Hi, I tried installing the update via wordpress, but I got this response
Unpacking the package…
Installing the theme…
Destination folder already exists. /nfs/c08/h03/mnt/126931/domains/essexpharmacy.com/html/wp-content/themes/sohohotel/
Theme install failed.
Is there a specific way to install the update?
Hi shivasmaharaj,
Thanks for purchasing!
It’s telling you the destination folder already exists because it does. To update you just need to overwrite the existing theme folder in “wp-content/themes” with the new folder you’ve downloaded.
The easiest way to do this would be to login to your web server via FTP.

Hi I am rubbish in WP, but I can do a lot of things with PHP (not the V5 (Object Progamming)), but the previous version. Do you thing I’ll be able to customize the Template if I buy it or I need to know a bit more in WP and Object Developing skills in Php ?
Hi triptop,
If you have a reasonable grasp of PHP you shouldn’t run into many issues customizing the theme.
Kind regards
when you upgrade the theme we don t need to reinstall WP, we just upgrade the new HTML pages ? so if we know where there are located we can go easily thought customization ? thanks
Hi triptop,
Nope you don’t need to re-install WordPress when updating the theme, you just need to copy the new theme files to your “wp-content/themes” directory.
You might want to consider creating a child theme if you’re going to be editing lots of the core PHP files: http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
Kind regards
Cool design! All the best
Thanks daveeeo
Hi,
Hope you’re fine, After installing the dummy content i got this:
Failed to import “Hotel Room #1”: Invalid post type accommodation Failed to import “Hotel Room #2”: Invalid post type accommodation Failed to import “Hotel Room #3”: Invalid post type accommodation Failed to import “Hotel Room #4”: Invalid post type accommodation Failed to import “Homepage Slider”: Invalid post type options
Any ideas about it? Thanks UOU
Hi uouapps,
Thanks for purchasing!
You’re getting this error because you’re importing the demo data before activating the booking plugin so the accommodaton post type doesn’t exist.
Activate the booking plugin packaged with the theme first and then import the demo data and everything should work fine

Just a quick question regarding adding tables, inside the accommodation pages, for example room overview tab ..
And also, how to direct reservation panel on the right sidebar on that same page
Sorry I also want to know how to setup the whole booking process starting from selecting the dates …
Hi blynk,
Thanks for purchasing!
Open a support ticket and I will be happy to help: http://quitenicestuff.ticksy.com/

The demo doesn’t seem to be taking up the entire screen on the desktop is there a reason for that how can this be solved
Hi Oudin,
The layout is a boxed design, this is just the way it’s been designed.
For most laptops and mobile devices the theme will take up 90% of the screen size.
Kind regards
Hi, love this theme! Very elegant, yet modern. Just what i am looking for. Great work!
VERY willing to buy but I would like to know if the theme supports / could have the follow;
- I want to adapt this theme to advertise a 12 bedroom Villa, so I don’t need the booking form for each individual room. Therefore I only need the booking form to book the whole Villa itself. Is it possible to adapt the booking form to work in this way and not for each individual room?
- Can you disable / enable the booking form from home page and other pages?
- Can you add a gallery page / portfolio page (full screen)? If not is there a plug in I can use for this?
- Is it possible on the ‘Accommodation Single’ page to have image slider full width?
- Is there an option to change the background screen image to an image or plain colour?
- On the booking form is it possible to take out the ‘room’ box option?
Many Thanks ?
Hi Kelly,
Thanks for your interest.
1.) The booking form on each room page just directs to the main booking system, but it would be easy to remove with a small modification to the code
2.) Yes the booking form could be easily removed from the homepage/other pages
3.) Again this would be a small modification to the code, but simple to do. I’d be happy to help with this
4.) Yes the background colour can be changed in the theme options to anything you want
5.) Removing the “Room” box from the booking form would unfortunately be more complicated and wouldn’t really be possible without a lot of modification to the plugin
Kind regards
Thank you for your quick reply – Your theme is on my short list. It’s fab! Thanks again
GREAT Theme, i would buy it but i miss also another payment gateway than paypal too and also to turn it off, and also something like an portfolio page, image gallerys, team page..!? Any chance to get it in future updates?
Thanks! GLWS
Hi johannes1000,
Thanks for your interest.
The PayPal payment system can be turned off in the plugin settings if you’d rather not accept deposits. Regarding other payment gateways, I’ll look into adding additional ones in updates over the next couple of weeks.
An image gallery is included, I’ll add it to the demo soon.
Kind regards
Thanks for your fast reply! Look forward to the next update, i’m sure i will buy that great looking theme!! 
if you buy the thema you are able to let me have a version without the booking form on the homepage
Hi intenso,
Sure the booking form on the homepage could be easily removed, I’d be happy to explain how to do this via support.
I’m also planning to add an option to disable it via the theme options in the next update.
Kind regards
Wow! Super cool work!
Thanks tranmautritam!
Hi, how do we get the text under the Menu like “Welcome” “Get in Touch”?
I cant seem to find the “Screen options” as mentioned above.
Im using the wordpress version if that helps.
Hi shivasmaharaj,
Thanks for purchasing!
Login to your WP dashboard and go to “Appearance > Menus” and in the very top right hand corner you should see the “Screen Options” link, when you click on it a box will slide down with some options and you can tick the “Description” field. Now when adding menu items as you normally would there will be a “Description” field which you can add the sub titles in.
