AdSplash
This child theme works up to ClassiPress 3.6.1, it is not compatible with ClassiPress 4.x
AdSplash is a responsive ClassiPress 3.4+ child theme enhanced with new features that extend the ClassiPress theme on both desktop and mobile devices. Some of the features built into AdSplash include:
Mobile Responsive Menu
- AdSplash features a new responsive menu that turns into accordion on mobile devices making this the most mobile friendly child theme for Classipress
Responsive Tabs & Accordions
- AdSplash features an improved tab system that turns into accordion on mobile devices making this the most responsive, mobile friendly child theme for Classipress.
- these tabs, just like the List-Grid layout design, use cookies to preserve the state of the last opened tab upon page refresh or closing the browser.
- Recent ads (3rd tab) is presented by default to new visitors but this can be changed to a different tab ( there is an admin option built for this ).
- the first (Welcome) home tab is best used as a description page which is great for SEO (you can edit it in admin, html editor is enabled so you can use both text and images)
- Popular and Random ads front tabs can be disabled from admin for every visitor or only for the ones that use a mobile device.
Layout and Colors
- AdSplash features multiple color variations (Orange, Brown, Cherry, Grey, Green, Navy) for you to choose from. You can also choose how you want your content to be displayed (Aligned to Left or Right).
List / Grid ad layout view:
- the user can switch between List and Grid layout with a click of a button.
- new site visitors are presented with grid layout by default but this can be set to list as well ( there is an admin option built for this ).
- a site wide cookie is being set for the user to save the default selected layout, this way, the users will see the preferred layout design when they browse your site and even if they close the browser and come back later, the will be presented with the same design.
Search and filter by Location
- The top search bar has a unique feature that allows users to search for ads in a specific location using radius search.
- The City field is powered by Google Maps API and includes the options to either determine the user’s current location using Geolocation or to autocomplete the location as the user types the first letters.
- If City, Zipcode with Radius Search is too much for you, there’s also an option to use any other custom field as a location.
Infinite scroll pagination
- Besides default pagination that exists in Classipress, AdSplash has an optional pagination based on Infinite Scroll. Using this feature, visitors won’t have to click on page links to navigate in category pages because its enough to scroll down and new ads (pages) are loaded on the fly using ajax.
- This feature is optional, it can be enabled/disabled in AdSplash admin settings.
Support for Google Adsense between every 3rd ad
- Now you can include an Adsense ad (468×60 recommended) after every 3rd ad on category pages.
- Better yet (see bellow), these Adsense ads play well accross mobile devices.
Support for Google Adsense Mobile Responsive ads
- AdSplash has support for Google’s new Asynchronous code for Adsense which means Adsense ads won’t break the Mobile experience anymore.
Sorting / Filtering ads
Category pages include a sorting / filtering ads option
Users can sort ads by:
- Newest ads
- Oldest ads
- Last modified ads
- Price – Lowest
- Price – Highest
- Most viewed ads first
- Most commented ads first
Users can exclude following ads:
- Ads without an image attached
- Ads that were marked as sold
- Ads that expired
- Both ads that were sold and ads that expired
Related ads
- Single ad pages are extended with a set of 5 random related ads from the same category.
Admin options framework
- AdSplash has an options framework integrated so you can change some of the unique features present in this child theme.
Why are my thumbnail images stretched?
- AdSplash child theme uses custom image dimensions which means you need to regenerate your existing thumbnails for this to look fine.
- You need to install the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin and run it from WP-Admin – Tools
Where are the menu items / icons and how can I enable them?
Menu icons can be enabled for the Header menu (Primary Navigation) from within the Menu Editor just like in the screenshot bellow. Note the fa-home icon name in the title attribute.
Valid icon names are the following:
- fa-home
- fa-twitter-square
- fa-comments
- fa-plus
- fa-minus
- fa-tags
- fa-lock-alt
- fa-unlock-alt
- fa-pencil-square-o
- fa-map-marker
- fa-files-o
- fa-folder-open
- fa-rss-square
- fa-cog
- fa-clock-o
- fa-random
- fa-caret-square-o-right
- fa-signal
- fa-power-off
- fa-asterisk
- fa-bullhorn
- fa-sitemap
- fa-facebook-square
- fa-gplus-square
- fa-wordpress

Installation:
- Backup your existing Database and Classipress files to a safe place.
- Upload the childtheme to your themes folder or upload the zip archive through WP-Admin – Appearance – Themes – Upload
- Activate AdSplash Child Theme.
- You may need to set your menus again. Go to WP-Admin – Appearance – Menus and activate your Header and Footer menu.
- If you had a previous Classipress installation with existing content, your thumbnails may look stretched, you need to regenerate your thumbnails after childtheme activation: Please install the Regenerate thumbnails plugin and run it.

In the Recent added Ads it says “Array” insted of location. How can I fix this? Can you help?
In AdSplash Options – Search Options – check the Admin input an put cp_state below then Save. You can switch back to different option after that.

Hello,..
at present, we got a problem with uploading product images.
When we upload two, then you see one,upload thre, you see two, and so on… still one is less to see.
Can you define that? If we use the standard classipress theme, than it works fine
Kind regards
Ovidiu, when will the update and that it will change and what will be new?
The install instructions:
4. Go to WP-Admin – Classipress – Settings – Advanced, and check “Use SelectBox Js Library”.
I do not see Use SelectBox Js Library. Has this optioned moved to another page?
If i buy this how do i remove your brand from footer example copyright 2016 Ad splash as i need our own brand

Hope to hear from you.

Hi,
don’t know if its a bug, but if I am using the contact user form and click on the send button, I don’t get the notice that the mail was sent and the tab “contact” is not active, also the “poster” tab isn’t active.
After clicking on “contact” I can see the notification.
Its only with your child theme, not with the parent theme.
Do you know something about this?

Thanks & best regards

Its a bug. I’ll look into it. Thanks for letting me know.
Wow, ultra fast reply!
Thanks!
Could you please also tell me, where to translate the phrase “city or zipcode” from the geo search? Didn’t find it option or the language file.
Should be in the lang folder. You need to generate your own lang file from adsplash.pot
Just had a closer look and the lang file hasn’t updated that string.
You need to unzip the adsplash zip file to your computer, go to lang folder and open your language file using Poedit software.
Go to Catalog – Properties – Source keywords
and add “esc_attr_e” without the quotes to that list.
Then you can hit the update button so it would pick the “city or zipcode” string.
Its mostly done but there’s a new minor Classipress version that’s about to be released so I’ve been waiting to see how that goes.
Its no longer necessary. I’ll update the installation steps.
Go to Catalog – Properties – Source keywords
and add “esc_attr_e” without the quotes to that list.
Then you can hit the update button so it would pick the “city or zipcode” string.
Its doesn’t work, that crashed my poedit after updating.
Do you mean my translated de_DE.po file or the .pot file?
I think I found another bug. After updating my profile, the password is also auto updating with a generated one. I am getting change password emails after updating profile fields.
Its not doing this with the parent theme.

Hello!
I am interested in this question , and perhaps on your topic to pitch ads without registration ?
It will work with the plugin child theme Anonymous posting for ClassiPress?
I’ve sent you an email regarding an issue that I thought was going to be updated in the latest update.
The problem is with the link to facebook on the authors page.
In the classipress theme, the facebook ID starts with https://www.facebook.com/…. and the link works perfectly.
But in the adsplash theme, the same facebook ID starts with facebook.com/https://www.facebook.com/….
I’d really appreciate if you could let me know when this can be resolved as my clients are becoming inpatient as their links are not working correctly
Thanks so much for your help
I haven’t tested it so I can’t tell for sure but I see no reason why it wouldn’t work.
