Pre sales question about Vantage

Hi, I would like to set up a website that has a catering business directory for all of Australia (multi state, city); I would like the home page to have the location and category search options easily viewed. Do you support the following options
Locations, sub locations, radius, Australian postcodes, maps
Categories and sub categories
Monitised, featured and free listings
Coupons
Mobile ready
Reviews
SEO friendly
People can create of claim their own listing

Responses to your specific list are listed below each:

Locations, sub locations, radius, Australian postcodes, maps
You can set the region to Australia, so yes it will support Australian post codes. If you choose to create categories as locations you can, however this information is already entered in when creating a listing. Radius search is available within the location search sidebar. Homepage map is optional.

Categories and sub categories
These are created by you

Monitised, featured and free listings
Yes, you can create varying listing packages

Coupons
This is not included in the theme, but you can purchase an optional add-on from the AppThemes marketplace called AppThemes coupons.

Mobile ready
Vantage is a responsive theme, so will display on any device

Reviews
Already built into the theme

SEO friendly
Yes

People can create of claim their own listing
Yes

You can find information regarding all of this on the main Vantage theme page including links to the demo site. Thanks.

Pre purchase questions

Hi Pepsi,
Thank you for that information. Can you sell advertising space on the theme, or just featured listings?
With the extra coupon add on does this allow each listed member to provide coupons to potential customers looking at their listing as an incentive to get them to buy from them?
Thanks Andrew

There are advertising spaces available which you can configure from within the Vantage admin dashboard widgets page, but you manage payment for these ads independently to the theme itself. The coupon add-on allows you to offer discounts to listers, but not for them to offer coupons on their listings. Thanks.

category question

Hi Pepsi, If a viewer selects a main category from the home page and is taken to a sub page, are they able to see the sub categories of that category and can they also see a list of locations and sub locations to choose from that when clicked, only shows them that category list only in that location?

There is a categories widget which you can choose to have on the sidebar which will display the other subcategories, the demo site only uses one level of categories though. The locations aren't displayed as described, but this plugin in the AppThemes marketplace would allow you to add a location dropdown menu. Thanks.

Vantage Photoshop files

Just wondering which package to get. What are the photoshop PSD files.

App theme club

Does the App theme club include; Vantage multi city, map supreme google map, vantage search auto search, user location for vantage and logic widget per category advert?

The Photoshop .psd files are useful for web designers who wish to redesign the layout of the theme, as they contain all of the layout/color/size information for all of the pages used within the theme. You still need knowledge of .css in order to make use of the files, so if you do not, then you may not find a use for them. You can also always upgrade from standard to developer at a later date if you do need the files. In terms of theme functionality, there is no difference between one without the files and one with as the files are independent of the actual theme. Thanks.

No, the AppThemes club package does not include other Marketplace products, it only includes AppThemes created child themes (currently only Flannel for ClassiPress). You can find specific details of the club package n the FAQ section of the pricing page under "Are Marketplace items included with Club?". Thanks.
