Hey Javothemes, Could you confirm if each of the listings are custom posts, can I add custom fields and display custom fields. Are custom filters possible based on custom posts created? Thanks a lot.

Hello mattrin,

I am not sure if I understood clearly. we have custom fields for items (listings). if you setup custom fields and they will be displayed on single item pages.

Thank you
Rob

I’ve read a lot of comments about why Ratings and Reviews are separated because I was wondering the same thing. There may be 1 in 10 that need them separated but honestly from a UX perspective when this theme will be used 9 times out of 10, the Ratings and Reviews need to be combined.

How difficult would it be to integrate this plugin into the Item’s custom post type? http://codecanyon.net/item/reviewer-wordpress-plugin/5532349

Rob – I know you have a ton of requests coming in and I really appreciate how quickly you at least give a response to all of them.

But to take it a step further – if you combined Ratings and Reviews into 1 plugin, you’d keep everything you can do now, it just would be in 1 spot instead of 2 (which can be very confusing from a UX perspective). A user should be able to rate (5 or 10 star system), upload pictures and leave a written review. If you look at Yelp, Tripadvisor or any of the other location based directories, they have this functionality combined together for the user.

Hello JoomGo,

Thank you again. yes true. if we can have better plugins or better way, it would be very useful for you (our buyers). I have already contacted the author if we can have a copy of his plugin to test. I have not got any answers yet. we will see what we can do. as you may know we have pre-scheduled plans and focus on v2.0 now. it may take little time. :) thank you again.

By the way, do you mind if you can post it on our suggestion forum. it would be better for us. this place is for pre-sale questions :)

I hope I can give you a good news for this issue.
Thank you,
Rob

Is there any way to combine the star ratings to reviews? So that when customers leave a review they also leave a rating and they appear together?

Hello hydie,

You can disable or rename on the tabs. please have a look at this post on our knowledgebase. ( http://javothemes.com/forum/knowledgebase/how-to-change-detail-tab-names-and-disable/ )

You have a custom post-type called “Item” and I don’t see in the functions file or the plugins that this custom post-type was created. All I want to do is change the label in wp-admin area so the menu is called “Parks” instead of “Item”

Where can I make this change?

I installed this plugin to be able to edit admin menu items and it may be the best way to do this but I’ll let you say the best way to do it. https://wordpress.org/plugins/admin-menu-editor/

Hello JoomGO,

There is an option to change the slug name. theme settings >> item pages >> Items Setup. please make sure that you need to refresh permalink.

Thank you for the information about the plugin works with our theme :)

If you have more questions (or any problems), please visit our support site ( http://javothemes.com/forum/ ) and create a ticket. our support team will assist you.

Out of curiosity, why is the “Locations” check-box option even there on the submit form? There is a location input field. That should be enough. The locations check-box option forces the user to select a location that might not even be relevant if their location is not an available option on the form. Also, I see that certain things in this theme such as the location flag on the listing image is populated by the locations filter. If the user leaves that option blank on the submit form, the flag shows as “no location”, even if the user enters a valid location in the text input field. That is not correct. The locations flag should be populated by the city of the location the user inputs in the text field, not by the check-box options. Thanks!

Hello asingular,

The locations are for fitlering and all of related things with taxonomy. the address is for only map to get markers. the tags and categories are showing from the check box. it’s also a category you can use. one of our buyers use as his own names. ex) summer camp (location), winter camp (location)... etc..

Thank you,
Rob

Hello Rob!
Congratulations with the new version. It looks finer, compared to the previous one, but most important it has import capability!
I’d like like to report some bugs:
1. The sticky menu within items is white font on white background and the changes within the Theme settings for Sticky menu don’t affect it.
2. Search doesn’t work
3. The maps are not visible on iPads (I suppose on Safari in general)
4. “Add item” icon in the menu is not working
I have a few suggestions for the new update, which I hope, could be usefull for other of your other customers as well.
A. An item in a directory can belong to several categories (and sub-categories) at the same time (if we take as an example the restaurants a master category would be “Resaturant” wth subcategories: “fastfood”, “slowfood”; “european cuisine”,”asian cuisine” and so on).
So:
A1. the theme should allow importing an item to several categories (now it sees the categories divided by commas as a single category)
A2. selecting several categories in search would help to narrow the search (let’s say people are looking for “slow food”,”asian cuisine” restaurants)
B. It would be nice to have the possibility to decrease the size of the ads in the listing next to box map. Smaller size would allow more ads to be displayed on one screen.
C. For the same box map – when an Item belongs to several categories, the categories (shown on a red baloon over the featured image) cover almost entirely the featured image. In my case I delete this div from the template, but for others I suppose this string should be limited to the first category only.
regards
Andrei

One more:
When importing the items, the locations are imported well, but if you try to import a sublocation, separated by comma (“Location,Sublocation”) it will generate the creation of a new location – Location,Sublocation.

Hello apanciuc,

Thank you so much :)

1. It has been reported and fixed. it will be added on next (maintenance) update.

2. Did you select landing page as we put a notice? please edit the shortcode and select landing page and save. if still not working, could you please let our support team know about it? ( http://javothemes.com/forum/ )

3. We are checking safari issue. safari doesn’t seem to support google API. we will check again.

4. Can you please let our support team know for the details? (with your site information such as a temporary admin account and url)

Thank you for the good suggestions. do you mind if you can post on our suggestion forum? it should be much better for us (and our developers) to have a look.

I am glad to hear that import works fine. we just tested a few times and helped our buyers little bit due to busy update. we added “refresh fields” for current clients. it will be also good for new features in the future. we will test some more about import. :) and the category.

Thank you again,
Rob

There is a new update for visual composer, will this be released soon for us soon?

Can you please check it again? I just downloaded and checked it’s 4.4 version on js_composer.php

Thank you,
Rob

Yeah, its 4.4. Thanks :)

:) have a good day

Hi,

1. Could we create “location” below the “category” on Demo2 or Home1 ? 2. If we had installed Other Wordpress Directory theme and want to replace with Javo Directory theme, should we fill in “category & location” again on Javo Directory that we did before on Other Wordpress Directory? 3. What is the username and password for demo?

Thanks

Hello fbpromo,

We have a plan for Mega menu and we are also searching for some plugins.

Hi Rob,

In my country, PayPal is not so familiar for using as payment tools except for Bank/Wire Transfer (as Direct Payment). For members subscription, could it apply Bank Transfer and Credit Card to collect the subscription fee from users?

Thanks

Hello fbpromo,

There are also another payment options. please have a look at pmp plugin site. if you get payment from bank transfer, you need to approve manually.

Thank you,

So many bugs with the new update. It looks great but there are so many issues with the theme that need to be fixed. For example listings cannot be added as the submit/save button for the listing doesn’t work.

Hello adrianstvpereira,

I have a look at our support site shortly which gets reports from our buyers. but I have not found submt/save button issues. it might be some conflict from unexpected parts.

Do you mind if you can let our support team know the bugs you have on our support site ( http://www.javothemes.com/forum )? we will have a look at them and assist (or fix) you as soon as possible.

As you may know our support team is not working on weekend. they will assist you on Monday. we apologize for the incontinence.

@andyparks

It’s evident that you have a poor knowledge of Wordpress and, worst, you don’t want to “wast your time” reading documentation.

I have not yet bought the directory because i don’t like how Search around my position is managed and i don’t like the responsiveness of mobiles (not very intuitive), but this theme is a very good piece of sofware.

Hello animone64,

We will make better tutorials to assist our buyers. we understand them.

I guess you are talking about our 2 maps. we were considering to have better way to show on mobiles. but we have not worked on this due to heavy workload on new update. we will see what we can do to make it better. I hope it works well and you like it. :)

Thank you and have a good weekend :)

Is there a way to buy Version 1 of this theme?

Hello JoomGo,

We have new version V2.0 and they are all from Version 1. we added more options to have better design that’s why it looks different. we also added some better options / functions to run faster and better.

If you see our demo1, that’s the version 1 design except the 1st front page.

Hi,

How can i edit ratings? Add/Delete or edit is posible?

What is meaning of this title? Target ID: 2140 Madison Lance

Hello Madison,

The target id means the related original item post. so the ratings are related items and the id is 2140. you can manage them on back-end / front-end form.

I went ahead and installed the new theme version 2.0 – there was so much stuff messed up after the fact that i reverted back to the old version. For instance, the new item search module is all over the place- misaligned and non cooperative. Switching back to the old theme was like Christmas all over again. I would say avoid upgrading until the bugs are worked out. Wasted a couple hours on this new one. Cheers

Hello andyparks,

I believe that you may need to setup new navi menu. we put some new options. there are some tutorial videos on knowledgebase (support site). please try some and let our support team ( http://javothemes.com/forum/ ) know if there is any problem. or you can import new data and see how it sets up. we will keep adding more tutorials.

Thank you,

How can I put a BACK BUTTON on the single item pages – to direct the users back to the search results page? Site will be used by all ages of seniors and want to simplify. I was just told by Javo Themes that the JD would not allow you to add the search bar to a single item page! Not sure why, but I would at least like to slap a button and some text on the ITEM PAGE to save confusion. Sure, normal internet users know how to press the back button on the browser, some don’t however and just sit there wondering what to do next. WE want ultra easy navigation, and the item page is not quite functional at the moment. Thanks

Hello andyparks again,

I believe that there are not many back button on wordpress themes. I am not sure why. I may need to confirm with our developers. it could be with js historyback.
I see your ticket on support site. he was saying we don’t have a search form on single item page as this moment.

however we have a plan to have a new navi form to have search form in near future. if you don’t mind, could you please wait little bit. I hope it could be better for your site.
