AppThemes ClassiPress – A Classified Ads WordPress Theme

Description

ClassiPress turns WordPress into a classifieds portal, with a custom fields builder by category, a paid ads packages module, and AJAX search with real-time autocomplete. Developed by AppThemes, it includes an advertiser dashboard to edit, pause, and relist ads, a pricing plans system by fixed value, percentage, or by category, plus widgetized areas and a theme customizer to adjust colors and typography without touching code.

Main Features

• Category-based form builder: simple builder that lets you create custom fields specific to each ad category.
• Ads packages module: fixed value, percentage, or category-based pricing, with an option to mix free and paid ads on the same site.
• AJAX search with autocomplete: real-time results as the visitor types, complemented by advanced search with category modules and refinement by location.
• Featured ads and subscription plans: a paid Featured Ads section and a 30-day Membership Pack for unlimited posting.
• Social login and statistics: authentication via Facebook, Google, Twitter, and Yahoo, with a daily and total visit counter for each ad.

ClassiPress Benefits

• Portal monetization: charges for posting, for featuring, or via subscription, integrating PayPal IPN and bank transfer to receive payments.
• Self-service dashboard: advertisers edit, pause, and republish ads through the dashboard themselves, reducing manual support.
• Customization without code: the theme customizer adjusts colors and fonts, and the widgetized areas let you visually reorganize home and sidebar blocks.
• Multi-language site: compatible with the free WPML Bridge plugin to translate categories, forms, and ads.

Who Is It For?

• Entrepreneurs who want to launch a local or regional classifieds portal.
• Niche sites like real estate, vehicles, jobs, services, and used products.
• Agencies and developers who deliver directories and marketplaces based on WordPress for end clients.

Ideal for anyone who needs to quickly set up a monetized classifieds marketplace, with flexible category-based forms and autonomous ad management by advertisers.
