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.

Nice work Ovidiu!
Are you planning to update BS to 4.0 anytime soon?
Hi, i got errors after activating your child theme.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘!=’ (T_IS_NOT_EQUAL), expecting ‘)’ in /home3/…/public_html/…../wp-content/themes/classipost/functions.php on line 177
Can i get a fix on this please ?
It seems you’re running a rather old PHP version. You can get rid of the errors faster if you upgrade to at least PHP 5.5, 5.6 recommended since its still supported by the PHP team.
If you’re running your websites from a control panel like cPanel, you should find the option to upgrade in the Software section. If not.. ask your web hosting to upgrade it for you.
Also, please use the forum for support requests.
Thank you for your replay, i will try to do this form Cpanel.
You know what, this is seeming to be a better version of Vantage than Vantage is. Wish I’d seen this before!
A couple of questions though –
1) The tabs above the main listings – are these interchangeable? I’d like one tab to show ‘Featured’ listings.
2) The tabs on the inner listings – ‘comments’ ‘location’ ‘description’ and ‘related ads’ – do they all come along with the theme or are there extra purchases needed?
3) If I wanted to use this in place of a Vantage site, would the Prices on each listing be able to be removed?
Other than that, a wonderful looking theme!
Hi rayraven,
1. The tabs are hard coded into the file but I believe we should be able to change/add a new tab with featured listing. (This kind of duplicates the Featured Slider above but its your call.)
2. Everything you see is part of the theme. I don’t like to split things apart and separately maintain a bunch of small plugins.
3. You can skip the price field in the ClassiPress forms so customers won’t be able to input any prices (also, if price is empty or 0, it won’t show up in front-end ) This way, you can have a few categories linked to a new form that includes the price field if you want.
Super, you can expect a new purchase as soon as I get home. Wonderful theme from an active moderator – who I believe sorted me out before with a plugin for social network icons!
I just looked at the theme.
I agree it’s a very nice one.
Did they nick the slider idea from your for the new vantage :-).
(Vantage Mod) – I’ll need to submit a ticket to the development team before I can comment on this issue
No, I took the idea from Vantage before it was released. ClassiPost header image can be positioned from the very top as well, menu will fly over the image. -> https://alpha.jibo.ro/
Yep, I’m going with this theme. Makes Vantage look like an afterthought of poor ideas. I’ll be in touch re the support forum!
I post classified ads from 1 to 6, the full image display. Ads 7 lost all images, including the previous classified ads
help me !
@HongPhuc, I cannot find you among the customers who purchased this theme.

Hello i have a problem on petworldegypt.com

You need to install and run the Regenerate Thumbnails Plugin.
Hello all, Can anyone pls tell me if I can buy and install this theme right away to my newly acquired domain with having to first install any classiprees theme
You can install wordpress and install classipress then classipost
Thanks Robert, really appreciate.
I love this theme – Can you use it with Vantage please?
alan, sorry… its not compatible with any other theme besides ClassiPress.
Hi Ovidiu,
There is an error in the classipost when using a firefox browser. In checkboxes, the small check box does not appear and can not be checked. This error occurs during the detailed search, and the forms that appear when you post an ad. For example: http://hirdetes-expressz.hu
Please help solve the problem quickly. Thanks.
Joe
City town street menu ?
Make sure there’s no conflict with other plugins you have installed.
You could also try switching temporary to the ClassiPress theme to see if the problem is still there.
Oh, and please use the forum for support requests.
I would ask something about your theme ClassiPost, For now, i have three questions. It will be great if you find a time to anserw me.
1. It is possible to switch off “memory” on the page ad… if i choose cart Description/Location/Comments/Related Ads on page ad item, and i go to the next page ad item, i see for example Related Ads, not a Description. I want to see Description always, and the client can see other thinks if he click on.
2. It is possible to hide statistics of views the add from main site, and ad site? I don’t want to show my visitors this data.
3. I want to use this theme to present sleeping places (f.e. hotels, apartments etc), it is posible to show Location/Map, on the right side menu (Where is Poster/Contact).
release wordpress ?
Category detailed search real estate, city, town, street
I have this property and I get it right away?
I am also getting an error like user ‘promorocreative’. I intend to change the php 5.4 version to php 5.5 or 5.6. I am just thinking what I would do if scripts I have in other websites working OK on version 5.4 stop working under the newer version. Will I be able to revert to 5.4 ( I could live without ClassiPost)??
my friend i sent you email before regarding a refund for classipost theme because its not compatible with my plugins,,please replay fast

Olá. Estou pesquisando o tema, tenho interesse em adquiri-lo. Gostaria de saber se é possível incluir vídeos nos anúncios.
Evelyn, the theme doesn’t have any video features included other than the ClassiPress/WordPress features.
Hi Ovidiu,
Is there a plugin or suggestion from you on how to add a search section by country?
Thanks
