ClassiPost
This child theme works up to ClassiPress 3.6.1, it is not compatible with ClassiPress 4.x
ClassiPost, the most responsive and user-friendly child theme for ClassiPress on both desktop and mobile devices.
There are many features built into ClassiPost so take your time and have a look at the DEMO site.
Here are some of the features included into ClassiPost:
Mobile Responsive Menu
- features a new responsive menu that responds to mouse hover on desktops and touch events on mobile devices
Responsive Tabs & Accordions
- ClassiPost features an improved tab system that turns into accordion on mobile devices making this the most responsive and mobile friendly child theme for Classipress.
Layout
ClassiPost lets you choose how you want your content to be displayed:
- Sidebar aligned to left or right;
- Wide slider carousel
- Wide footer area
- Number of column widgets in the footer ( you can place unlimited number of widgets ).
Colors
- ClassiPost has a light, a warm and a dark Yellow color scheme called Sun Glow. You can also choose different colors for various elements across the site.
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. The locations can be restricted to a specific country in Google Maps settings.
Fully responsive featured ads slider carousel
- The featured ads slider carousel has a better design and it is now fully responsive on both desktop and mobile devices.
Main Image Gallery
- The ad image gallery features a wider area where users can showcase their images and is also backed by a fully responsive lightbox gallery that can accommodate the full size, original uploaded images even in full screen.
- The lightbox gallery can be used with the keyboard arrow keys, the mouse scroll wheel or mouse grab and is also touch enabled so mobile users can easily slide the images with their finger.
Infinite scroll pagination
- Besides default pagination that exists in Classipress, ClassiPost 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 ClassiPost admin settings.
Support for Google Adsense between every 3rd ad
- Now you can include an Adsense ad (responsive) 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
- ClassiPost has support for Google’s new Responsive code for Adsense which means Adsense ads won’t break the Mobile experience anymore.
Related ads
- Single ad pages are extended with a set of 5 random related ads from the same category.
Admin Panel
- ClassiPost 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?
- ClassiPost 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 can be chosen from FontAwesome website. You can choose from over 600 icons.
Installation:
- Backup your existing Database and Classipress files to a safe place.
- Make sure you’re running the latest version of ClassiPress.
- Upload the childtheme to your themes folder or upload the zip archive through WP-Admin – Appearance – Themes – Upload
- Activate ClassiPost Child Theme.
- Go to ClassiPress – ClassiPost Options and save the settings
- 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.

I am very happy with the theme Classipost, but I have this problem with one thing.
I use the plugin User Ads Limiter and in Classipost on the dashboard page, the error notice message is not visible.
When I switch back to the Classipress theme it is.
Can you help me out, I want to use the Classipost theme and the plugin.
Hello.
When I try to change colors settings in ClassiPost dashboard, nothing happens. Changes are not executed in the frontend. I have the newest version of WordPress (4.6.1) and ClassiPress (3.5.7) installed.
What might be an issue?

Hi, I just bought the classipost and I like it very much but there is a major problem here, It takes too much time to load. I have latest version of wordpress and classipress. The speed is great with my old child theme.
I bought classipost because I wanted to switch to a responsive child theme but with this speed I really don’t think I can Use it. Please let me know what can be the problem? Thanks!
Hi, is it possible to customize the top search bar e.g. displaying search field with only category dropdown like the default classipress theme or search field with location dropdown?

If you scroll up you will see that the Author seems to have gone AWOL. His last post was mid October. Nearly 2 months away.
There are quite a few developers whom I know to be looking into other income revenues as Appthemes are very much on a downward spiral.
I wouldn’t hold your breath for an answer anytime soon.
we dont have many question but they tell me write in freak forum ok i write then support close ticket no answer no ask hi how can i help i write many ti9me to general nothing just many bla bla but no help
understand that we have very clear question we dont aks general question hot to ….. i can not translate city or zipcode i header search and i ask answer you can read this is not answer for our question this is answer if someone ask how he can translate theme
@aj2703, If you bought this theme then you should ask for support in the proper channel which is the Appthemes forum, not in comments, private messages or social networking.
Just so you know, I did answer his questions the same day he asked on the forums only his English made it impossible to follow the exact problem.
Ovidiu, this guy, man he’s hard work. I tried helping him in the forums with ClassiPress, but he only wanted help from AppThemes support. He’s very rude and comes across as a know it all. If he bought any of my products I honestly would just refund him – not worth the support hassle.
this is not true and you know this we copy what you write
ther eis no translation problem its a simple row with few words
i copy again :
hi where we can translate city or zipcode from search in header
can you tell me how you can not understand this simple question
its very simple
I guess you have solved the problem by now. But just a comment.
In the searchbar.php file at about line 142 you will find this code:
<input name="cp_city_zipcode" type="text" class="form-control geotext[city-state]" tabindex="1" id="cp_city_zipcode" value="” placeholder=””/>
If you change the ‘City or Zipcode’ in this line (esc_attr_e(‘City or Zipcode’, ‘classipost’);) to whatever language you prefer the problem is fixed. As I understand it, you would prefer to use an offensive language. I don’t mind. Anyone is entitled to a language of choice.
I love the theme and I’ve used the it for some time. I’ve experienced fantastic support from the man behind it. But maybe I speak a different language.
I fully understand that it is annoying when there is something missing in the POT-file. But it doesn’t help to go ballistic.
Hope you will have a wonderful X-mas and that the new year will make you a more eloquent orator.
It’s not that easy to get it right. The code from approx line 142 of searchbar.php should read like below:
<input name="cp_city_zipcode" type="text" class="form-control geotext[city-state]" tabindex="1" id="cp_city_zipcode" value="” placeholder = “”/>
Just change <input name="cp_city_zipcode" type="text" class="form-control geotext[city-state]" tabindex="1" id="cp_city_zipcode" value="” placeholder=””/>
Just change ‘City or Zipcode’ in the line esc_attr_e(‘City or Zipcode’, ‘classipost’); and it will be fixed.
Sorry for messing it up.
I don’t have the time or pleasure to argue with you on this matter. And No, its NOT clear at all, You asked “where” to translate those words and I told you where to find the translation file and how to generate one for your own language.
Are you able to follow the last answer I gave you on the forums or you still need help fixing the translation?
There are only 3 solutions to your problem.
1. You follow the directions I gave you to create a proper translation for your language.
2. You manually edit the searchbar.php file and replace the English words in there (NOT recommended).
3. You send me a private email with the FTP credentials so I can fix your problem.
Let me know which one is it.
Hey Ovidui, I’m just jumping in here to assist both you and Robert.
Robert is asking how to change the words “City or Zipcode” from header search.
If Robert follows translation instructions he will not find it in the classipost.pot file. It’s unfortunately missing. Hence his frustration. It’s an easy mistake to make. I’ve missed out strings in my .pot file too.
So you can either ask Robert to edit the searchbar.php file (as you say, NOT recommended) or provide a quick fix to the classipost.pot file to include the translation of “City or Zipcode” and email it to him.
Hope this helps you both.
Thanks @talent and @dale. I believe we got to an understanding in the support forum. It’s unfortunate that the language barrier brought us here. He didn’t know how to explain this properly in English and I didn’t guess what he wanted to say in such a few words.
You’re welcome Ovidiu. Glad to hear you found the solution. Yes, a language barrier can bring some complications. Especially if you rely on Google translate! However, I hope your communication improves with a lot less hostility in the future.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Hi
i have some pre order questions please :
Deos the child theme support translation to other languages ?
Does it support other currency ?
Is it compatible with other plagins existing in Apptheme marketplace ? for instance User feedback and Search ? advanced search ?
Can the city-zip Box be replaced by a drop list for cities in one country ?
thanks in advance
@Bridge, translation and other currencies are supported.
The city text field can be replaced with a custom field drop down containing the values from existing ads. So that dropdown will contain all cities found within the already published ads. However, it won’t show cities that have no ads at that moment.
