New updates looks very nice indeed. I am testing very thoroughly on several computers/laptops running different browsers. I know you are not claiming to be compatible with ie8, but I am seeing many issues in ie9. I recommend you a dedicated box for ie9 testing to work out the bugs, especially with meny and responsiveness when adjusting browser size.

I also recommend that the majority of your time spent with next updates deal with monetizing (membership and custom field related). The theme design and functionality is amazing. So using this to make money is now what is important. I would be very happy to assist with any testing needed or if you want input on this issue.

Great work!

Hello asingular,

We test with IE9. I believe some animations and a few parts not working as other browsers. we will see what we can do more. but there is no issue for responsive in ie9. as you may know responsive is mostly for mobiles or tablets. anyway thank you for your testing and time.

Yes we have a plan for it. I have to check our schedule with our team.

Thank you again, Have a great weekend.
Rob

Hi, I have some questions: 1) does the theme support CSV to Wordpress import plugin? 2) what about multi language-site? 3) are featured adds possible? Thank you.

Hello kesef,

1. We just made it work with them and successfully imported for our 2 clients. we may need to test little more. it should be fine.

2. We also got the final confirmation from wpml team. they will contact us very soon and we just need to create a wpml config file. it should not be too long.

3. I am not sure what you mean about featured added. can you please give me little more details?

Thank you,
Rob

Why do I have to buy a license “WPBakery Visual Composer” if it is included in your theme?

Same for “Ultimate Addons for Visual Composer” and “Brainstorm Force”?

Hello..impriemerie moderne No you dont need to buy any of them. We purchased extended licenses. I cant give you the details. beacuase I am out of office now. Please search on our knowledge base about it. No need to purchase them and no need to add licence keys.

If you have more questions, we will assist you on monday. Please create a ticket on our support site.

Thank you.

28$ paid for nothing… damn!

I am sorry to hear that. It was Friday late night at the moment. you can use the plugin on next your project if you have. our plugins are free to use for our buyers. but the licence is only for our theme. you can also try to talk to envato about this issue. :)

Thank you and have a good weekend

Hi,

Thank you!:)

Yes, i have the pro. Many free importer on the market. I need the save template/cron jobs so i bought the pro.

Oh ok Thank you.
Have a good weekend. :)

Hi, nice theme. I have more of 50000 items, more categories etc… is it possible to import a csv or xls? thanks

Hello marcoatmac,

We added 15k items on maps and tested. it works very well. we believe it should be fine.

the import is just testing and we have done 2 clients imports and worked fine. however we just want to make sure if it works well and test little more. we were really busy for 2.0 update. we will add a notice when it’s ready. I also think it should be ok.

Thank you
Rob

“everybody has different options and styles. we need to consider of them and take time. anyway thank you for your suggestion.”

Why not build a custom metadata builder with drag n drop interface like:

http://codecanyon.net/item/wordpress-meta-data-taxonomies-filter/7002700?WT.oss_phrase=filter&WT.oss_rank=3&WT.z_author=realmag777&WT.trending=trending&WT.ac=search_list

or

http://codecanyon.net/item/sabai-directory-for-wordpress/4505485?WT.oss_phrase=interactive%20map&WT.oss_rank=18&WT.z_author=onokazu&WT.ac=search_list

or

http://codecanyon.net/item/web-20-directory-plugin-for-wordpress/6463373?WT.oss_phrase=classified&WT.oss_rank=5&WT.z_author=Shamalli&WT.trending=trending&WT.ac=search_list

The deleted spotfinder theme also have this builder. I know its hard to develop, but users can build any kind of listing site.

My suggestion is for the builder:

- Visual Custom field builder (Choice, Date, HTML, Markdown Text, Number, ON/OFF, Paragraph Text, Single Line Text, CAPTCHA, User, Section Break, File Upload, Image Upload, Video, and more)

- Custom fields for categories

- Use custom fields in ajax powered advanced search

- Use custom fields in map pin boxes

- Set listing results “order by” custom fields

- Set custom fields for users/vendors/shops and give the ability to serach for users like “dir listing”...

Hello ziziplanet,

Very great. we will see one by one and try to have them. as you know, it may take time. these are what we also think we should have.

Thank you all the time :)
Rob

Hello,

I am interested in buying your “Javo Directory Wordpress Theme”. I have posted a question here a few months ago regarding the advanced search module. I scrolled through the comments and it seems that a lot of people are willing to add such feature to your awesome theme. In reply to my comment/suggestion you said that you will work it out in the future.

I noticed that you already implemented custom fields for ads, however there is no option to sort/refine search results in each category/sub-category to create more specific search results.

Are you working on an advanced search module that will allow website admin to create category-specific search modules for specific categories, so that visitors can easily refine their search results within specific categories based on the custom fields assigned to these categories? Yelp directory has similar functionality.

I think that it’s the only important feature that Javo Directory currently lacks of. An advanced search engine allows visitors to refine search results within each category by information provided by logged-in users during the process of business listing submission. Admin creates custom fields for each category, that need to be filled by businesses owners during the process of listing submission. Advanced search module allows visitors to refine search results within each category, based on the custom fields pre-set by admin and completed by businesses owners during the process of listing submission.

Regards.

I noticed that if you type in “advanced search” in the search bar at the top of this page (comments page), there are tons of advanced search feature suggestions. You can check it yourself under the following link: http://themeforest.net/item/javo-directory-wordpress-theme/8390513/comments?filter=all&site=themeforest.net&term=advanced+search&utf8=%E2%9C%93 . So I guess that it must be the next big update for your great theme. When are you planning to implement advanced search based on custom fields?

Hello Bitfreak,

Since v2.0, we have an option to refresh fields. this is for advanced custom search in the future. it’s only for old data which already using. (for current buyers). we will work on this feature in the future. however it’s not simple to create for everybody. as you may know, everybody has different options and styles. we need to consider of them and take time. anyway thank you for your suggestion.

Thank you, Rob

Is it possible to have a map on the HOME page with pushpins to certain categories instead of a slider or background image?

Hello samphai,

You only can add one of our maps (wide, box, tap). or you can use our item list page. you can add some content now. (since v2.0) so map (filter by category / location ) + content

Rob

im not sure i can follow you?!? what you mean by “you can add some content now. (since v2.0) so map (filter by category / location ) + content”

Hello samphai,

I am sorry I forgot you are very new. Before 1.3 and 2.0, it was not possible to add any content on item list template. so.. it was.. Map + listings. like this page ( http://javothemes.com/directory/demo1/hotel-with-map/ )

But now, you can add your own content and you can place them before listing or after listing. so better than before. we have not made any demos for it. it’s scheduled on Monday to have some demos with item listing page.

Item listing has an option to filter.. a category and a location.. so you can list… “coffee shops” (a category) in “New York” (a location).

I hope it helps you to understand better :)

Thank you
Rob

Hello, I just created a listing on the new demo site: http://javothemes.com/directory/demo1/item/test-gallery-baltimore/ and gave it a real location near my home. Yet it does not show up on any of the maps. Should it not show up on the map, regardless of if a “location” is selected from the listing form?

I guess it took a few minutes to propagate. It is now showing on the map.

Hello asingular,

There might be also a cache issue. there is the item now. we have to remove them for demo. we will have a test server for posting items soon.

How does a listing become featured for home page? I can’t see an option to make a listing featured in the demo. Thanks!

Hello asingular,

There is a check box on edit item pages. you can check to show them. or if your clients purchase a package which has feature option. they can use it.

Hi,

“create your own custom fileds (input, textarea, dowpdown)”

Can i Add price custom field(nummber)? If yes, can is “short by” custom filed? Can i add custom fields for categories?

Other thing:

Your theme supports external importer plugin like “wp all import”?

Thank you!

And just an idea: inetgrate “WC Vendors” free woocommerce marketplace plugin..

Hello again,

exactly! that’s why we were considering to make it as a default field or a custom field. and possible to add on search form. we will consider soon.

WC Vendors are free? I have checked a few times and it costs for single items. we want extended licence to let our buyer for free with our theme. http://www.woothemes.com/products/product-vendors/

I also found this plugin.. ( http://codecanyon.net/item/socio-multi-vendor-for-woocommerce/8931029 ) and there is extended licence we can buy for our buyers.

We will test it when we have little more free time. it’s little busy at this moment.

Very thank you for your suggestion.

Hello vtomcs,

Can you please try to use “item list” template? when you select the template, there are 2 options to select. “Category” and “Location”. So it can be.. “Food shops” (category) in “Newyork” (Location)

If you still have questions about it, please contact our support team. http://javothemes.com/forum/

Hi,

I’m interested in purchasing your theme. However I have a few questions.

1) Do you have any plans to support buddypress soon? 2)Is there any way to have a custom search? Would like my clients to be able to search within a specific category.

Thanks.

Would it also be possible to have featured clients/profiles rather than featured products?

And last question is it possible to add a time limit to submitted items?

Thanks again!

Hello Parousia,

1. Yes we have a plan to add buddypress in the future. it may work at this moment however there is no extra design added.

2. We have new version v2.0 and there is field refresh option. this is for our custom search form in the future. it may take time to be completed but it will be added. I am not sure if there will be options for select categories to show search form. we will see what we can do.

3. it’s not yet. we will have new profile pages in near future with new design

4. Time limited means duration of posting items? yes there is an option to create membership level with pmp plugin and you can setup the duration of posting days.

Thank you for your time as well,
Rob
