Thread: O'linda: A New Premium Jobroller Child Theme

Spartac, when will your next jobroller theme come out? Can we get a sneak peak? Screenshot?

Hi Jlei1989 - I am still not sure about the time but I estimate it's going to be released in 10-15 days. I will work out to make a screenshot for you later.
Please note that we delayed this to launch another Jr theme because we focused on some plugins/clssipress themes and vantage too. so everything is coming out together.
I let you know when I have any update.
Thanks for being interested in my themes
regards

A classipress Olinda and a Vantage Olinda would be sooooooooo sweeeeeeeet

Just got O'linda loaded and spent last night looking through every thing

'awsome' very well put together just scratched the surface of what's in there and I was messing with it for more than 2hrs


Websitu

Hi Websitu,
We already thought of that, but we still plan for new designs.
For olinda and jobsapp, wea re going to enhance them more with functions/widgets and interface flexibility/look-&-feel as well.
I am happy that You liked Olinda, and You can expect it to be much better in next days.

Regards

Thanks Spartac. Appthemes need to make you an official child theme maker. You are excellent.

When is your new jobroller child coming?

@jlei : Thank you for the words and the heads up. I just try my best.

@mesh: Still not sure about the exact day, but we are on the styling phase (If everything be going as planned, in one week/10 days works will see the light, one after the other)

We are working on : 2 for Classipress, 1 for vantage, and 1 Jobroller, also , there is another premium jobroller theme is almost done for a customer (special requests) .This one would be somehow a corporate/job board, it's the best choice for recuitment agencies.and at the same time, it will have a unique interface and more widgets and functions.

I just want to say that we are going to launch a new market place site that will include all the themes and plugins, not only jobroller's ones as in jobthemes.com.
Until then, I would create a new thread for that, and update this one.

This really is a brilliant theme very well thought out and intuitive to use. Some tiny tiny issues that I have

As Follows

I do have a couple of things though to clarify which maybe due to the differences in how countries view jobs.

1. Can you explain what the purpose of offers is I am not sure how it works

Then my next issue (for me) is Sponsored ads these are a great feature once a site is up and running and I can see they will generate some much needed revenue. However whilst trying to get the site up and running (6 to 12 months) it would be great to have this area for text - especially to help with the SEO aspect of the site. Is this possible somehow?

Next Point the dashboard - can edit job be placed on the dashboard so that only users who need access to this have access to this - That way it can be removed from menu.

Then some very small issues which I thought I should bring to your attention

Spacing showing in this shot (really really tiny thing)

I have changed Resume to CV using the language file but this will not change and I have triple checked the file to make sure I haven't missed it. Can you tell me where I can change this to CV

(I can also supply the changed lang file if it's of any use to you)

Using Latest Firefox browser on Mac OSX

I feel bad mentioning such tiny things on such a massive theme

Thanks

Hi Websitu,
Thanks for your feedback.
As I can see the issues are very tiny, and many of them it's due to the user experience of using it. not big deal. so let's try to resolve all one by one.

1- I didnt know what do you mean by " the purpose of offers" ,your question is as clear as it became blurry to me, sorry, so please explain.

2- About sponsored ads, you mean the home page featured logos' areas or the indeed ones as these ones called sponsored ads too.. if it's about the home page advertising areas, You can use the new widget created for Olinda/Jobsapp to add a text/html block instead of one of the current areas.

3- The edit lin in dashboard is already there, besides each job listing. however, You can create custom menus with the edit job page and/or any other page you want, then place it inside the user sidebar.

4- the spacing is added , thanks for noticing it.

5- the graphical issue in the radius input, You simply go to jobroller=>Settings=>advanced=>Set google jquery to OFF, it's causing a conflict with another jquery file... after changing that, dont forget to hit save please.

6- For the language pack, Olinda uses Jobroller language pack, however, there are couple of words added that simply can be translated using the Poedit software. open the .po file, then click on update to search for new words, then CTRL+F to look for the word you want to translate then after translating them, hit save to generate the .mo file, you are done.

PS: the .po file must be inside the theme to detect the new words.

7-The $ symbol it's inside jobroller, but you can delete it while translating, use the same step you did for resume, open poedit, make english/english translation, and delete it then save.

8- The " Submit a resume " in the header button located inside includes/theme-header.php, but still you can translate it.

I suggest, to resolve all the words/language issues.. inside olinda, open the .po file, hit update catalog, then CTRL+F resume to find all resume words, then simply translate them

You dont need to feel bad, I am like you, I admire perfection. Thanks for the heads up.

I suggest to contact me by email for further support requests, because - Althought I am available here all the time- but I reply faster by email.Often instantly.

Thank You so much for the kind words too.
regards

Ah, I forgot to mention, I dont intend to be totaly independant from appthemes forum, it did/does/is doing a very appreciated help for me, and I will always try to help users around here, even if not about my themes - ofcourse -, as a matter of fact to give small something in return for the favor, kindness and support I have got here.

But I am thinking to create a support forum whithin the marketplace I am going to launch for all themes/plugins ( olinda/jobsapp are includes ofcourse) for prompt support.

Also the site will include showcases, docs,tutorials ect.

What do you think about that websitu?
