- Answer: Vantage 4.X has been released recently, and although it’s 100 times better than 3.X with a very different and improved set of features but it’s like a new theme was made from scratch so technically it was not possible to update our theme unless it would not support any old installs/websites because of this, we decided to release this one as a new item but at the same time, our old directory theme customers would get this one for free 🙂

Hi,
I made a fresh installation of WP, Vantage and Directory. Now my home page is completely blank, if I activate Vantage things seem to be working, but when I activate Directory the home page goes blank again.
Please help to resolve its been a week since I’m trying to reach you.
Thanks in advance.

1. Does this child theme support the display of all entries of ONE chosen category
AND the display of ALL ENTRIES of ALL CATEGORIES? Is this option clickable for guests of the site?
2. Can I place the GOOGLE MAP on the homepage direct under the menu with a shortcut?
Thanks for your answer.
Hello,
I left you a message via support and via your contact page. I upgraded to latest Vantage and tried to use your latest Directory and Bfinder and they both crash the installation. Are these two child themes comparable with the newest wordpress and Vantage 4.2.1?
As a VIP member, I thought I would not these kinds of problems. My directory clients complained that the website was down so I had to go the ugly default Vantage.
I have replied you by fb
I tried to create a listing and it worked. Answer NO…..

Bot rating plugins Critic and Strarstruck don’t properly work with this theme. Actually they dont work at all! Stars and reviews messed up or not even show up
Hi
I tested critic plugin with directory theme.it worked.
Do you use any cache plugin or other plugins that might cause the conflict?
Can you share the url so I can see it ?
Can u resolve my child vantage theme?

Hi Ayas,
You need to install directory 4.X not directory.zip, on vantage 4.X parent theme.
it’s showing dots because you have the wrong vantage theme maybe, read this https://www.appthemes.com/blog/vantage-update-issue-and-solution/
can you post or send us your website url so we can see what’s going on ?

take note this websites fresh almost 1 week from date of purchase.
That’s why i wondering is not working.. an install in wordpress.
I purchase 4.X i paid 39$ and download the installer in customer panel .So where is the issue?
Why there is 4.X separate installer of that.
I don’t know how I fix my site now days are counting
I want to make it clear I purchase this https://marketplace.appthemes.com/child-themes/directory-4-x/comment-page-4/#comment-55637
I downloaded the products from customer panel
I install in theme plugin after that is successful.
When I open the site ONLY DOT.
So I made any mistake..
Better send in update installer.
I disable all the plugin. before upload
give me admin access by email to support @ jobthemes.com
you are using vantage theme by siteorigin, not by appthemes. that’s why you get this error.
no site theme in my site . Have a look the entire site is empty. only your installer uploaded.
I understand now from the download is a package for parent theme which is from site origin
and Directory?
The issue is coming from your side from the installation you give wrong parent theme that why is coming white screen in the page.
Check the properly the file before to compress in the file zip.
We are working to resolve and fix the issue I differentiate starting for your file zip.
I need the new file to be download in my customer panel?
Don’t install the theme plugin in my site.
We are give full time to and extra money to bring some expert site developer..
Expenses more than the work of the plugin.
ASAP
you clicked on ” update ” vantage theme and the wordpress.org brough to your site the theme named the same ” vantage”, but from siteorigin and that broke your website
what to do now is to go to your site wp-admin => delete the theme named ” vantage” and upload vantage by appthemes
if you give me access to the site, I can do it for you in instance
Cheers
Mr Spartac your the theme developer you know better than us.
Check your mail I send the site panel according to your request
Hope we are now happy with your support if it will be done.
I am going to check that out and fix it
by the way, this is nothing to do with our theme but a conflict between the name of siteorigin’s vantage and appthemes vantage. I am going to fix it immediately
it’s fixed, 🙂
Its fix but in site demo is different where is the banner rotating no option in the panel
you don’t have enough listings to show the featured listings, add more ads=> set them as featured, they will show on the featured banner
also go to appearance => widgets => drop the directory 4X widgets to the home page sidebar ( content)
YES YOU FIX THAT THEME IS APPEARING IN THE LANDING PAGE.
NOW AGAIN ARE CHECKING THE FUNCTIONALITY IN EVERY LINK>
CHECK IN CREATE LISTING. CATEGORY ALLOW NOT 2 OR MORES
AFTER IN PUTTING THE DATA IS NOT SAVING THE NEW ENTRY.
LOOK IN EVERY CORNER OF YOUR THEME SO THAT WE SATISFIED THE THEME
Broken Themes
The following themes are installed but incomplete.
Name Description
Directory The parent theme is missing. Please install the “vantage” parent theme. Delete Install Parent Theme
You what is the cause….
from the installer the siteorigin them is automatic upload in the theme appearance if install your Directory theme…..
CHECK it buddy
Note:
if activated other theme
Site origin theme delete option appearing…..
If you install the directory theme siteorigin theme delete option no showing in the screen.
So concluded is coming from directory zip…
We cant solve and fix the issue if coming from the root file
I refer the directory theme not vantage layout
Take note
Vantage some issue also but this from appthemes.
\
Your is jobthemes
yes,, it showing but in the demo is different interface?
I think you will having a hard time to fix the updation of new listing.
To be Fix;
1. is not saving the new listing from create listing page
2. not exceeded 1 category should be open
3. file format uploaded pdf , jpeg , gif , doc must to set
Ayas,
I tried to create a listing and it worked
one more time, the add a listing form is a module of vantage, not our theme.
configure vantage properly, the google map api key and the categories.
try to avoid the capital letters for the categories, it’s hard to read them.
ok..i will find out
DEAR YOU FORGET
THE SITE PANEL IS NOT SHOWING Now?

No entiendo cómo puedes seguir vendiendo el tema Directory 4x en AppThemes. Es un fraude. No funciona. ¿Para qué vendes este tema si no se instala correctamente? Todavía estoy esperando que entres en mi web y instales Directory 4x, tal y como me prometiste por correo electrónico. Te has quedado con mi dinero y me lo vas a devolver. Te voy a denunciar a AppThemes por ventas fraudulentas.
I do not understand how you can continue selling the Directory 4x theme in AppThemes. It is a fraud. It does not work. Why do you sell this item if it is not installed correctly? I’m still waiting for you to enter my website and install Directory 4x, just as you promised me by email. You’ve kept my money and you’re going to give it back to me. I’m going to report you to AppThemes for fraudulent sales
Hi Alberto,
please can you tell what’s not working exactly so we fix it??
can you copy your email to me here about entering to your website and fixing it!
what is it not working exactly !!
Hello Spartac, I sent you an email on Monday, April 8 to support@jobthemes.com with the url address of the web page where Directory 4x does not work and the access data as administrator so you can access it. If not, give me another email to send you the information.
I’m still waiting for your help.
A greeting.
Hi Spartac, I’m still waiting for your answer to my problem.
My website is: empresasdemotril.donempresa.es
I have sent your access credentials as administrator to the support email.
Why does the Directory 4x template create so many problems for your customers?
It’s a joke?
When I bought Directory and activated it on my website, all I want is for it to work and be equal to Appthemes’ LIVE DEMO.
Customers buy to find solutions, no more problems, no cheating.
I await your news.
Thank you.
Hi spartac! longtime customer here as you know. need to know what is latest update and do i already get it? what else can you tell me that is helpful please? Hope you are well and thank you! PS emailed several days ago and no response.
