{CP} Simply Responsive
A simply responsive child theme compatible up to version 3.6+, which enhances ClassiPress with many new features and adjustments (3.4.x & 3.3.x versions still available, just give me a shout).
CP Simply Responsive has been designed to fit well on MOBILE devices with a strong emphasis on UI – in other words, User Interaction. Everything we do with this theme is designed with the user (ie: your customers) in mind. No unnecessary gimmicks, css transitions or flashing animations, purely simple and functional.

- Added Price Negotiable option (see README.txt).
- Added New 300×250 Sponsored Ads Widget.
- Added New ‘Sale Pending’ option, for items sold, but subject to collection.
- Added ‘Featured’, ‘Sold’ and ‘Sale Pending’ label highlighters on Ads.
- Added ‘Sold’ and ‘Sale Pending’ ribbons to the featured slider (makes sense, right).
- Added ‘Go Back’ button on single ad and no ads found pages, which will take user back to the last page they came from.

- Added Featured slider to display featured ads which are relevant to the category being viewed on the category pages. Please note, you must have at least 2 featured ads in each category for this to function correctly otherwise non-featured ads will duplicate themselves. This is a quirk of ClassiPress.
Please feel free to adjust backgrounds, text links, buttons and colors to suit your own branding. If you know a little css, this can easily be achieved. See one example HERE
IMPORTANT: Please be aware that this is a ClassiPress child theme. You will also need to purchase the ClassiPress main parent theme for it to function fully.
Where has my main menu and footer menu gone?
Sometimes this can disappear upon installation of a child theme. If this happens, simply go to your admin area: Appearance -> Menus and redefine your header and footer menu locations. Set you primary navigation to Header and your footer navigation to Footer.
In WP3.5- set this in your Theme Locations (top left panel).
In WP3.6+ you will find the settings have moved to the Manage Locations tab.
How can I share my own logo to facebook?
Please read the ADDITIONAL NOTES in the Support section]
How do I translate this child theme?
There is a simply-responsive.pot file inside the languages folder. Simply use PoEdit program to to add translation into your own language. For more information and guidance on how to use PoEdit, see here and here.
1. Download the zip file from your AppThemes account. Unzip the zip file. Inside the unzipped folder, you should see a README.txt file and another zip file. This is the zip file you need to upload to your server. Go to your WordPress admin dashboard -> Appearance -> Themes – Install Themes tab and upload the zip file. Then simply activate.
2. Check the ‘Use SelectBox JS library’ checkbox
Appearance -> Customize -> Site
3. Ensure your permalinks are set correctly. WordPress -> Settings -> Set Permalinks to “Post name” and save the settings.
If your menus disappear, see the FAQs section.
If your images look squashed, see the Support section.
For the optional features, please read the README.txt file for set-up instructions.
Set-Up and Installation Support for this child theme can be found here: http://forums.appthemes.com/simply-responsive/.
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Why do my images look distorted?
Since this theme uses larger images in a square consistent format, you will need to install and activate the “Force Regenerate Thumbnails” plugin to resize all your images to the new larger sizes.
Download the plugin here:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/force-regenerate-thumbnails/
You should only need to do this once!
(Images uploaded to ads should be no less than 250px width and height)
Recommended logo sizes: Desktops / Tablets – minimum width = 226px / Mobiles – minimum width= 198px.
If you upload your logo to your images folder and your image has a different dimension, you will need to adjust the ‘cp_logo’ sizes in the style.css file accordingly.
If you upload your logo using the Classipress -> Settings -> General tab, then you will need to adjust the ‘.header_main_res #logo img’ in the style.css file accordingly.
Please feel free to adjust backgrounds and colors to suit your own branding, but please note, support is only provided for setup/installation and any bug fixing. We do not provide free support if you choose to further customize this theme. We will, of course, help you with any minor tweaks/adjustments.
How can I share my own logo to facebook?
To link to your own facebook page using the AddThis share plugin, you will need to have your own facebook account set up and your own app ID number. Simply replace the ID number in the head of the wrapper.php file with your own ID number and replace the fallback image URL with your own (see FAQs):
Make sure your logo is at least 200px x 200px or facebook will not recognise it.
On lines 21 and 25: <meta property=”fb:app_id” content=”594911647187742” /> <!– CHANGE TO YOUR OWN FACEBOOK ID –>
On line 22 and 31 <meta property=”og:image” content=”http://www.yourdomain.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/year/month/yourimage.png” /> <!– CHANGE PATH TO LINK TO YOUR OWN LOGO/IMAGE –>
<!– CHANGE PATH BELOW TO LINK TO YOUR OWN LOGO/IMAGE –>

@yarono5 I have set up a temporary RTL test site. PM me for the link
hi talent,
forgive me for my ignorance how can I send you a private message. I don’t see that it is available through this site.
You can message me via the forum:
https://forums.appthemes.com/members/talent/
Although I am about to head out for the next 5 hours, so it’ll have to wait until I get back.
Hi there, is the theme available in Spanish?
Thanks,
Mike
Hi, yes it’s available in any language. You just need to translate it, using PoEdit. There is a .pot file included for you to do your translations.
Hi Talent, I just purchased the theme but when I went to install it, I get a message that the Classipress theme is missing. I know is installed because the site is running fine. Do you know what the problem could be?
Yes, if you have classipress installed and you have not deleted it then it’s most likely the error is actually telling you that the “stylesheet” is missing. If this is the case then you have not installed the child theme correctly.
https://marketplace.appthemes.com/child-themes/simply-responsive/#install
Don’t forget to read through the README.txt file and please ask all support questions via the support forum instead of here. Thanks.
https://marketplace.appthemes.com/child-themes/simply-responsive/#support
I will delete all support comments.
Olá comprei o tutorial e ainda não recebi.
Sorry, I do not speak Portuguese. You should have received an email with a link to the tutorial. Look in your spam/junk box. Besides this, the tutorial only works with Classipress versions from 3.4 up to 3.5.4 as stated. It will not work with the latest version 3.6+, simply because the code has been altered and moved into different files.
I shall now try with google translate…
Desculpe-me, eu não falo português. Você deveria ter recebido um email com um link para o tutorial. Procure na sua caixa de spam / lixo eletrônico. Além disso, o tutorial só funciona com as versões do Classipress de 3.4 até 3.5.4, conforme indicado. Não funcionará com a última versão 3.6+, simplesmente porque o código foi alterado e movido para arquivos diferentes.
Desculpe, para mim não serve e não recebi este e-mail
Are you saying you are not getting email notifications of when I replied to you from this comment section?
As I said previously, you should look inside your “junk” or “spam” folder.
I had to set up a filter in Gmail to stop my own emails from going into my spam box. It’s quite common for WordPress sites and this forum uses WordPress too.
Please PRIVATE message me rather than fill up this comment section with queries unrelated to this child theme. I shall give you time to read this post, then I will delete your comments, so as not to confuse others.
Thanks
It was sent to this address: an*********tas@gmail.com
You might need to log into your Gmail account online and set up a filter.
Dear Talent,
Can I get the backend demo link of your Child Theme Simply Responsive (with all the plugins in action if possible)?
Not possible, I’m afraid. Besides this the backend is exactly the same as the Classipress theme. Nothing extra. The plugins I am using on the demo are listed in the plugin category:
http://demos.fabtalent.co.uk/cp-simply-responsive/ad-category/plugins/
Thanks for your reply Talent.
Two more questions please!
1. Is there a full with view for CP Simply Responsive?
2. Are you able to provide some customization for the Simply Responsive Child Theme?
I need to contract some customization tasks and I believe such task is best done by the author.
If this is a service you can offer, can you provide your email so we can discuss further?
Thank you.
1. Yes, you can make pages full width using the full width template the main Classipress theme supplies.
However, if you are referring to the ads on the homepage template, which is by default uses a sidebar, then some tweaking of the homepage template will be required, plus some tweaking of the CSS file to rearrange the sizing of the ads in the ad loop.
2. Yes. Customization service is available. When/if you purchase this child theme. There is a README.tx file which will have installation instructions and an email address you can use to contact me.
Thank you for your response Talent.
Is it possible to have up to 8,000 categories/subcategories in the CP simply responsive child theme?
Thanks.
Yeah, like a catalogue list sort of?
Please note, the child theme only changes the look of the theme and adds features which are listed in the child theme description. It does not alter the way that the ClassiPress theme works. So, if you can add 8,000 categories and subcategories to the ClassiPress theme, the child theme will not affect that.
Thanks Talent.
I understand it’s a child theme.
I was just asking generally about such capabilities for a classified ad wordpress theme.
Any idea?
Thanks Talent.
Well for a classifieds WordPress theme, 8,000 categories are quite excessive, so you might need to think about the best way to add them so that your category list doesn’t take up the whole page and your category menu isn’t too huge. This is the reason I devised the A-Z Category plugin.
You’re the best Talent.
Swift and detailed response whenever possible.
Thanks.
Haha thanks, although if you had asked these questions last week, you would not have had such a swift response. I was touring the Republic of Ireland. I expected lots of rain but was rewarded with lots of sunshine! Who’d have thought you can get sunburnt on the west coast in May? The luck of the Irish was with us 🙂
Lol! I can imagine the climate change enthusiasts feeling heads and shoulders above with such phenomenon.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yeah, I know.
If you noticed, I said “whenever possible”.
Cheers!
Ask, and thou shall be given as they say. I hope it applies this time (lol).
I intend to buy the {CP} Simply Responsive Child Theme and all 6 Talent plugins.
Can I get a jolly discount?
I sent you a private message a few days ago. If you can’t find it in your spam box. I’ll re-send it.
