4. Install theme, plugins and demo content:

Plugin support custom register/login page, users registered there will automatically become agents/owners.

Visitors can also quick submit listings even without registration proccess, but if user is not registered account will be automatically created (require only email).

For other account types by default quick submission is disabled, but you can enable user type transformation for subscriber in Admin->Listings->Settings

Custom register page can be defined in:

Quick submission

In Admin->Listings->Settings you can define Quick submission page

This page can be used for quick submission (require to populate only required fields and defined fields by administrator). Visitors can submit listings even without registration proccess, but if user is not registered account will be automatically created (require only email).

You can add this page link into your menu if you wish.

in theme will be automatically visible here:

You can also add nice quick submission button widget to sidebar, example:

Example of usage:

Admin/Agent/Regular submission

In Admin (Dashboard)->Listings admins/agents can add llistings:

Our Theme support many templates for specific usage, like profile, results, listing preview, content, contact, news.

With default demo installation everything will be configured nicely and you can check yourself in admin.

Example usage:

Templates are build based on wordpress standard widgets, this can be edited in widgets editor or customizer in wordpress, example:

Plugin support categories, and based on categories you can define visible fields

This visible fields dependent on categories will have effect on listing submission and search form

To enable this feature go to Admin->Listings->Settings->Check "Show categories"->Save

In Admin->Listings->Settings you can also check "Search in sub-categories", this means that when searching, results from subcategories also will be visible in results

You can manage categories in Admin->Listings->Categories

When edit category, you can manage visible fields:

Some clients want to hide some fields based on purpose values like for sale or for rent, have in mind that in such case you can organize categories in such way, like tree:

For Sale
  -House
  -Apartment
For Rent
  -House
  -Apartment

Map pin icons

Map pin icons are also related to categories, example:

Automatic locations

Plugin support automatic locations based on user populated fields like address, country, city, and auto search based on this data with help from google api to detect coordinates.

Search example with google api suggestions, and after that detect coordinates:

Manual strict locations

You can also additionaly add manual strict locations like Country->City->Neighbourhood

To enable this feature go to Admin->Listings->Settings->Check "Show locations"->Save

Then in Admin->Listings->Locations add location tree like example:

You can also add multiple values at once, example:

Location search field can be also added in Admin->Locations->Search form

Now you can select location on listing submission form

After that if you don't want to use custom Country or CIty field you can remove them

SVG Region Map

You can also automatically build locations based on SVG map data, example:

Guide to add amcharts SVG maps: http://listing-themes.com/nexos-wp/docs/img/desc2/svg_map_wp.pdf

Complete plugin is organized based on Fields, so listing details are collected from fields.

You can manage this fields (Drag & drop) to reorder, edit, delete in Admin->Listings->Fields

Some fields are RED LOCKED, this means that we doesn't allow to remove them. We doesn't allow this because field is importand by design/functionality for web or for mobile api. But in any case you can rename it suggesting for some similar purpose.

Please don't change/remove category fields type, Fields not in categories are not visible automatically on listing preview, only specific defined field like description or content are visible, so don't  remove/change all categories!

If you want to customize listing preview HTML, related file:

wp-content/themes/nexos/SW_Win_Classified/views/frontend/listingpreview.php

Example modification in wordpress dashboard, to add new field above description in listing preview:

In this example 87 is new field ID, found in admin->listings->fields

Search form is designed as widget or VIsual Composer element. Every search result also must content primary search form to work properly.

When user first click on search form it's redirected to results page ( defined in Admin->Listings->Settings )

Search form contains listing fields, and can be visually generated in Admin->Listings->Search form

For some searching based on numbers from/to you need to make fields searchable and all new added listing will be searchable by this field, example, when edit non-searchable field:

You can also transform INPUTBOX/INTEGER into dropdown on search form, in some cases like Price selection.

Example solution:

Results page ( defined in Admin->Listings->Settings ) containe result items

Result item contain listing fields, and can be visually generated in Admin->Listings->Result item

If you want some HTML changes on result item or result page its located in:

wp-content\themes\nexos\SW_Win_Classified\views\frontend\resultspage.php

Regular plugin version is located in, but template version have priority if you using template related:

wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\codeigniter\application\views\frontend\resultspage.php

If you want to customize infowindow on map then file:

wp-content\themes\nexos\SW_Win_Classified\views\frontend\infowindow.php

Regular plugin version is located in, but template version have priority if you using template related:

wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\codeigniter\application\views\frontend\infowindow.php

In Wordpress you can change langauge here:

Admin->Settings->General->Site Language

For translations we suggest Loco Translate plugin

Localization files can be found in: wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\locale

and for theme: wp-content\themes\nexos\locale

If some words missing there, try to sync template file, guide:

Video GIF example for sync first template and after that language file (so 2 times for theme and plugin):

First template file must be synced + saved
Then also language file synced + saved

Also some fields are dynamically generated, like search form, submission fields and similar, this can be translated in: Admin->Listings->Fields->Edit all and change name, values

Categories for example in Admin->Listings-Categories

Locations for example in Admin->Listings-Locations

Our example on twenty sixteen template:

Some details:

https://www.metaslider.com/documentation/getting-started-with-meta-slider/

https://www.metaslider.com/documentation/how-do-i-include-a-slideshow-in-the-header-of-my-site/

Related to templates:

For demo purposes we using Twenty Sixteen and Total, but tested also with:

Twenty Seventeen,Twenty Sixteen,Twenty Fifteen,Twenty Fourteen and Total

CSS, theme related:

If you want something very special, you can add own css changes, this require basic css knowledge.

You can use firefox or chrome developer console, in firefox can be oopened with CTRL+SHIFT+K

then locate what you want to change

and add custom css into standard wordpress customizer, example:

CSS, plugin related:

If you need to customize some styles, change it in:

wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\assets\css\style.css

Or even better in your theme custom css file.

For some CSS customizations we suggesting to use Firefox and Developer Tools (CTRL+Shift+K)

PHP related:

Our plugin is based on Codeigniter MVC arhitecture and Bootstrap on frontend.

https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/

MVC means:

M = Models (generate database queries)

V = View, contains mostly HTML

C = Controller contains mostly logic, transfer data from M to V

How to detect in which file is something:

We organized Wordpress URL in this way, when url looks like:

wp-admin/admin.php?page=listing_manage

This means listing is controller in admin, and manage is method in this controller

Controller code can be found in: wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\codeigniter\application\controllers\Listing.php

View (HTML) code can be found in: wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\codeigniter\application\views\admin\listing\manage.php

When we using URL like this:

wp-admin/admin.php?page=currency_manage&function=addcurrency&id=32

This means currency is controller in admin, and addcurrency is method called in this controller

Controller code can be found in: wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\codeigniter\application\controllers\Currency.php

View (HTML) code can be found in: wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\codeigniter\application\views\admin\currency\addcurrency.php

Dashboard menus:

It's defined in file: sw_win_options.php

Widget controller:

wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\codeigniter\application\controllers\Widgets.php

Widget name represents controller method

Widget views (HTML):

Can be found in: wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\codeigniter\application\views\widgets

Shortcode controller:

wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\codeigniter\application\controllers\Shortcodes.php

Shortcode name represents controller method

Shortcode views (HTML):

Can be found in: wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\codeigniter\application\views\shortcodes

Custom pages defined in Admin->Listings->Settings:

Controller is: wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\codeigniter\application\controllers\frontend.php

Views can be found in: wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\codeigniter\application\views\frontend

User account types / roles / rules

Is defined in: wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\config.php

you can delete some if you don't need.

you can also rename it easy by translation guide, with loco translate plugin

for add new or customize behaviour, some coding skills required, hint:

Agent menu is defined in object:

in file: wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\sw_win_options.php

Dashboard widgets

Dash widget is defined in wp-content\plugins\SW_Win_Classified\sw_win_dashwidget.php

You can hide/comment code related to disable it

If you want custom dash for specific user, this is not theme related, can be archived with some third parity plugins or custom coding, example:

add below code into \wp-content\themes\nexos\functions.php

function disable_default_dashboard_widgets() {
global $wp_meta_boxes;
// wp..
unset($wp_meta_boxes['dashboard']['normal']['core']['my_widget_example']);
unset($wp_meta_boxes['dashboard']['normal']['core']['swwin_news_widget']);
unset($wp_meta_boxes['dashboard']['normal']['core']['dashboard_primary']);
}
add_action('wp_dashboard_setup', 'disable_default_dashboard_widgets', 999);

Example how disable other widgets:

https://digwp.com/2014/02/disable-default-dashboard-widgets/

https://wordpress.org/plugins/client-dash/ 

If you need additional specific template file, you can basically copy existing and rename it.

For example you can copy:

wp-content\themes\nexos\templates\template-homepage.php

and create:

wp-content\themes\nexos\templates\template-homepage-v2.php

Now in new file, define name and rename placeholders to some new like "header-my-1":

After that in wp-content\themes\nexos\functions.php you need to define this new placeholders, actually copy existing similar and just rename:

Now this new placeholder will be visible in dashboard widget settings.

Even without any changes, by default performance are already very good, if you want best results on gtmatrix, pingdoom or PageSpeed Insights by Google, you need to enable cachings on server, some examples:

Plugin for minify/merge css/js https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/

Plugin lazy load images https://wordpress.org/plugins/a3-lazy-load/

Example additional caching cofiguration in .htaccess file at end of file:

From v1.4 plugin we implemented advance theme support.

Please reading custom coding section before that.

So you can add custom HTML for all view files based on your theme requirements.

Structure is same as in plugin folder, but here it's located in theme folder, example:

Additionaly we added some custom functions support for themes like demo installation.

By default this functions are implemented in file:

PDF export doesn't work?

You should not have website locked with password, PDF export doesn't work then

Wordpress.com issues with install demo content on premium account:

WordPress.com doesn’t allow you to upload your own themes (you’re stuck with what’s available for free or in their marketplace) so in order to use any of the awesome themes on Themeforest you’ll need to get yourself a self-hosted installation of WordPress.

We will try to make as most features possible compatible, but they have so many limitations for plugins that is not suggested to use it.

Use cheap and good hosting suggested in above section instead.

Installation failed with message: The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet. ?

So this usually happen because of small upload_max_size configuration on server and is easy to solve. You can also extract theme directly on server cpanel file manager into folder "wp-content\themes\" instead of uploading via dashboard.
