Can business owners "claim" listings and login to customize their page?

Hi AppThemes Team,

I just discovered your site and I love these themes. Great stuff. I'm going to buy Vantage and JobRoller in the next month.

Quick question on Vantage - Can business owners "claim" listings and login to customize their page?

Ex - let's say I start a local restaurant listing and review site. I seed 100 restaurant listings. Joe's Restaurant then sees their listing on my site and wants to "claim" it. They also want to be able to login and customize/adjust their page.

Is there a mechanism for this? Thank you.

Further to Ted's query, if someone creates their own listing, how do they securely edit it later on? What security features prevent random 3rd parties from editing someone else's listing?

Currently Vantage does not have an option to allow businesses to "claim" their listing, however this is planned for a future release.

@bt1500, you need to be registered in order to add a listing, and currently only the person who created the listing can edit it (aside from Admin). I suspect there will be some changes around this based on any claiming of listings though..

thanks for your reply pepsi. If Admin creates listings, can they later be assigned to others?

Hi. Can I get a reply please?

Also, can business owners submit listings which in turn are then either approved by admin or auto-approved?

bt1500,

Yes, the admin can create listings and later assign them to registered users.

How

How does this work? Do I need to set up this ability for each user and how exactly do you do it?

The "Claim Listing" feature has been implemented in Vantage since the time this thread was started. You can read more about this feature and how it works here.
