Thread: Multiple categories - Multiple City selection option availability

Multiple categories - Multiple City selection option availability

Hi,

I have a lot of interest in your AppThemes templates. However, for the purpose I would need to use it, which is "rolling" the program out for classifieds use in multiple towns/cities. Is it possible for site users to go into the program and chose the specific city/town they would like to either "View or Post" from/for while maintaining access to all the features e.g. Listings ? The plan would be to launch and advise in one location first and expend access and service to other cities/towns progressively but seamlessly. The expansion mode is general advertising of course, but the provision should already be on the ground prior.

Secondly, is there an available mobile phone App for your sites in use?? or if not yet, any plans for unvailing such availability in the near future??

Hi Martin, outside of using one installation for multiple locations, the theme does not have a default multi location function built in which would work in the way you describe (like Craigslist). To achieve something similar you could look at doing what other customers have done, and that is to set up multiple instances of the theme on a WordPress multisite network. Additional customization is required though, particularly if you're looking to have the location selector at the beginning.

We are currently working on making our themes responsive, not specifically a mobile phone app, as such. This is planned for future releases of each theme but we do not have an indication of when these will be available yet. Thanks.
