Support FAQs
- What kind of support is offered with a purchased product?
Your product purchase includes one year of access to premium support via email and one year or free updates. Beyond that, you will need to renew your subscription year on year for around 30% of the product price. Support covers issues such as bug fixes (if any) under normal operation, how to use basic product features, very basic WordPress help, and help with very basic theme customisaton. If you need more advanced modifications please consider hiring a developer to do it for you. - Will you provide help with small modifications?
If you need to do small modifications, you may get help from us as long as they are reasonable in number and nature. If you have a lot of such modifications, please consider paid developer help. - What kind of help would be unreasonable to ask?
This is not an easy question to answer. We are here to ensure that the product you purchased works as intended by us and serves its purpose on your website. That means if it doesn’t work for you, we can step in and help you with it. However, it is when there are no issues with the functioning of the product and all you want is help with modification, that demands start getting unreasonable.
As mentioned before, we don’t mind helping with modifications, but we also expect you to have tried everything to do it yourself. In other words, we expect you to have tried all the settings in your theme, ensured that the issue relates to the product in question, searched through legacy product support forum, and looked around on Google for the answer to your questions before approaching us. Please bear in mind that one theme, one child theme and a few plugins can get you only so far, and you will probably need to make changes to the code of your website to add functionality, change design and personalise it. In case of too many modifications, we will politely ask you to seek paid help. - I am using one of your child themes. I am having an issue with it.
Please make sure the issue is really with the child theme by activating the parent theme and checking if the problem gets solved. Also please make sure you have tested all the settings in parent theme and child theme, sometimes the answer is right in there! Send us an email if the issue still persists. - I am using one of your child themes. I need help with customisation.
As a pre-requisite, you are going to need a basic understanding of HTML & CSS to start customising the layout and style of your theme. To dig deeper PHP knowledge, specifically to WordPress, will help as well. The WordPress Codex is a great place to start learning. For CSS changes related to text colour, background colour, fonts, etc, please consider using the Firebug extension. A simple Google search returns many good text/video tutorials. - Do you offer paid WordPress development services?
Yes we do depending on our work schedule. You can always run your requirements by us via email.

this would be awesome for classipress any plans for this ?
There are a couple of multi-region solutions available for ClassiPress already, though not available on the marketplace.
Will you be offering a geo or multi-location and advanced search plugin for Clipper soon?
Hi Mike,
If I remember correctly, Clipper listings cannot be geo-tagged as in Vantage or Jobroller, which is the reason they can’t be filtered by region. No immediate plans for a plugin for Clipper, although I am looking to create a child theme for it.

Mohsin
I will be purchasing your location plugins in the near future for my classipress site. I like the Singapore nanny site you created. Please PM about it. I need something similar for a different industry and would like to know if I can purchase the mod from you.
Do you think future versions of Clipper won’t include location or geo features?
Perhaps other developers and one of the staff at Appthemes can respond to this.
I am looking for multi-location solution for other themes like classipress too, and was hoping to find one here in marketplace. Could you point me to those other solutions you mentioned that are out there?
Thanks very much.
Hi there,
Can you please PM me on the forum. It will be inappropriate to post the link here.

Hi
Can you point me to the best one please to achieve the above ?
Can you please PM me on the forum? Sorry this is outside the scope of this product.
Very well done Mohsin.I like it.
I wish You all the best.
Thanks Rahim for your kind words! Congrats on your awesome Simplux child theme going live!
Hi Mike,
I have replied to your comment on my website regarding the nanny website. Regarding the Clipper theme, I am no sure, but wouldn’t bet against it. I will hopefully create a multi-city plugin for Clipper when there is location tagging available.

Does this plugin work correctly for e.g. indeed plugin aswell?

Enrique
Hi, this plugin has not been tested with Indeed, since the Indeed plugin does not work outside the US or something like that.
Hi there,
So, Indeed is now everywhere does it work with Indeed jobs or not? What about cities and countries?
Many thanks!
It does not work yet with Indeed, but I will be looking to get it integrated with it, now that it is available in my region. Thanks!
Many thanks for it, really! As soon as I see it working, the sooner I get it. By the way, it will be extremely useful if you could filter by country and category! Crucial added value!
Hi Mohsin,
Any update with regards to the Indeed’s integration? When do you think that it will become available. Looking forward to it, please keep me posted!
Cheers!
Can I set countries instead of cities?
is this plugin able to replace Google map with select menu on posting job and searching job on header
No, it does not affect the job posting in any way.

I also need some additional functionality like searching coupon with city.
Can we Multi-City addon to the clipper coupon theme?
Hi,
I want to list job by location as a clickable Menu, is it possible?
Hi there,
I would really like to know whether this plugin works with cities and countries and whether it indexes or integrates jobs from Indeed API. Many thanks!

Can I get a screenshot of how this looks in the header?
Hi there,
Not sure what you mean by “how this looks in the header”. Please can you explain?
Regards,
Mohsin
In the description for the plugin, it says at the end “in addition to give you the ability to place the location drop down menu in the top navigation.”. I wanted to see how that looks.
It’s as setup in the demo link, check the “Select City” drop down in the top menu.
Hi Mohsin, Does multi J-R works for multiple countries? Thanks
Hi there,
Yes, it can work for multiple countries, all you need to do is feed country names instead of cities.
Best Regards,
Mohsin

Kishore
Hi Kishore,
The plugin only filters normal job listings and not the ones that are displayed via an external feed. Please use email for support as mentioned under the support tab. We don’t use the AppThemes forums.
Best Regards,
Mohsin
Hi Mohsin,
