Thank you for purchasing my theme. If you have any questions that are beyond the scope of this help file, please feel free to email us through our Support Ticket. Thanks so much!

####
A) HTML Structure

This theme is a responsive layout with one column for sidebar. All of the information within the main content area is nested within a div with an id of "post". The sidebar's content is within a div with an id of "primary". The general template structure is the same throughout the template.

The header is contained in a header element with the class "master_header" while the footer is in a footer element with the id="colophon".

If you would like to edit the color, font, or style of any elements in one of these columns, you would do the following:

    #primary a {
        color: #someColor;
        }

To ensure that your new styles are applied, make sure that they carry enough "weight" and that there isn't a style lower in the CSS file that is being applied after yours.Use tools like Firefox Firebug or Developer tools in Chrome to identify the id and class of the elements and see if your changes are working.

### B) CSS Files and Structure

We are using several CSS files in this theme. The first one is the style.css with has a generic css reset.Almoust all styling is in this file. The file is separated into sections using

    /* =Single
    -------------------------------------------------------------------*/
    	some code

    /* =property
    -------------------------------------------------------------------*/
    	some code

    	etc, etc.

If you would like to edit a specific section of the site, simply find the appropriate label in the CSS file, and then scroll down until you find the appropriate style that needs to be edited.

The second most important file is the my_media.css which contain media queries and css alterations in order to achive the theme responsivness.

In the style.css there also included the botstrap css files.

The theme also let you modify the visual aspects of his elements. You can do that via the the theme options menu. All the changes you made here will be saved into database and transformed in a css file in customcss.php

In theme options there is a custom field called custom.css. You can paste any css file alteration in there and it will be applyed to the front site.

### C) JavaScript

This theme imports several Javascript files.

1. jQuery
2. My custom scripts
3. Some plugins

1. jQuery is a Javascript library that greatly reduces the amount of code that you must write.
2. The javascript code (except the google maps code) is found in 2 main files : control.js ,ajaxcalls.js and property.js . The ajaxcalls.js containt actions related to ajax calls. The property.js is containing actions and animations only for property page while control.js is covering the whole site. The google map code is found in google_map_code_contact.js for contact template page, google_map_code_listing.js for property page and google_map_code.js for the rest of the files.
3. There are several plugins inported. We use Modernizer for detecting browser resolution, prettyphoto for picture display and imagesloaded for handling image loading.

### D) Sources and Credits

I've used the following images, icons or other files as listed:

1. Bootstrap FrameWork
2. Colorpicker
3. PrettyPhoto
4. Google Maps API 3
5. Images are free for personal and commercial use from http://morguefile.com/
6. Listing icons are free from commercial and personal use, from http://thenounproject.com/
7. Some of the photos used on the homepages demos are free: to Share — to copy, distribute and transmit the work to Remix — to adapt the work to make commercial use of the work, Under the following conditions: Attribution — You must attribute the work in the manner specified by the author or licensor (but not in any way that suggests that they endorse you or your use of the work).

### E) PHP Code Explanation

All theme files call a sidebar orientation function in the begining. The function is called 'page_details' , is defined in functions.php and return an array with custom values for that particular page. It can have information about sidebar orientation, content width or other useful classes.

There also several custom post defined. These custom posts are memebership packages defined in libs/memebership.php,invoices defined in libs/invoices.php, are agent defined in libs/agents.php and property defined in property.php. For agent and property custom post types there is a "single" page that show the content for one of these entries. The files are single-estate_agent.php for agent and single-estate_property.php for property.

These 2 custom post type have also a "listing" template. To agent list is in the agent_list.php file while the property list is in property_list.php . Since the property custom post type has several taxonimies there is also a taxonomy file called taxonomy.php

The file for admin are libs/theme-admin.php. All the widgets are defined in the folder libs/widgets.

### F) Default .PNG Images

The original theme images (including default pins) are in the demo_content folder, included in the theme pack downloaded from Theme Forest after purchase. Images can be edited in programs like Fireworks, and replaced in the theme via FTP Manager.

###

Theme Installation

First of all make sure you have a valid WordPress installation. Here's a tutorial for how to do that http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress#Famous_5-Minute_Install. Next you can upload the theme with one of these 2 methods:

FTP method:

- Unzip the theme pack from Theme Forest.
- Upload the folder wpresidence contents to the wp-content/themes folder on your server - via FTP Manager
- Activate the theme in the Appearance / Themes menu in WordPress Admin.
- Open the WPRESIDENCE Options and set up theme options.

WordPress method:

1. Extract package downloaded from ThemeForest.
2. Find for wpresidence.zip.
3. Upload ONLY wpresidence.zip from Appeareance / Themes / Install Themes uploader
4. Activate the theme

After you activate the theme please follow these steps in order to setup your site and get started.

1. Import content demo content. (optional, not recommended if you already have your own content).
2. Go to Admin- Theme Options - Google Maps and fill in the landing address for Google Maps. To find out Latitude and Longitude for Google Maps, starting point go to Google Maps, find your location, click right on the location on the map and click “What’s here”. Coordinates will show in the search bar on top.
3. Optional. Set Google Api Key (the link to the documentation for how to generate your own Google Maps API Key: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/tutorial#api_key ).
4. Set the rest of general settings for your website: Currency Symbol, Where to show currency symbol and Measurement unit.
5. If you imported the demo content go to Appearance - Menus and set/save the Main Menu. If you haven’t imported content, from Appearance - Menus create your own menu and save it as Primary Menu.
6. Add some Widgets on sidebars (*footer sidebars also) from Appearance - Widgets.
7. Go to Theme Options > Social & Contact and fill in the form with your contact data.

### Demo Content - video tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=paLIfipA3b0#t=122

IMPORTANT: After demo content is imported, go to Themes – activate an older theme then activate WP RESIDENCE again. Properties in demo have been added before making some of the newest WP RESIDENCE features. This is required for properties imported to show in new installs correctly.

If you want to import the demo content (the one that you see on wpresidence.net/), you can import the XML located in the demo_content folder. For that go to Tools -> Import and activate & use the WordPress Imported.

What is not imported and you have to add after demo is completed: sidebars, widgets to sidebars and footer, condo, villa and duplex icons, revolution sliders.

If you site is already in production we DON'T RECOMMEND to import the demo content.

The demo content file is large because we offer all the images in the demo. Your hosting may have a speed/file size limit which will affect the import demo content process. The solution is to repeat the IMPORT operation until all content is added to your website.

READ ME NOTES:

---------1. Import separately post, pages, agents

If you choose to import only post, pages or agents from demo, you will import only text (not images). If you need images, import full demo (please note you need a good hosting service to upload all content at once)

--------- 2. Import full content

Note that this file is large because we include all images from the demo, which are in high resolution. If during the import you receive an error from the server, it means you're hosting is limiting the size or the upload speed of your account.

In this case, try to repeat the import several times, until all content si live.

--------- 3. How to import

Go to Tools - Import and activate the Import Plugin

Select the files you wish to import from demo_content folder

Wait until you get the "All done. Have Fun!" Message

--------- 4. What to do after import

Go to Appearance - Menus - Select "Footer" menu as Footer Menu

From the same Menus - select Main Menu and save it as Primary Menu.

Go to Revolution slider and import the 2 slides (see below):

Install & Activate Revolution Slider

Add Slider Name "shortocode", alias "shortcode"

### Wire Transfer

First enable the option from theme options:

Then fill in the information where you wish people to send the payment to:

On front end users will see a button "WIRE TRANSFER" next to PayPal or Stripe. When clicking on the button - the next step is to see a modal info box with Wire Instructions:

User will get the email which will include an ID (unique ref number for payment)

The email will include the INVOICE NUMBER generated in Admin. User will need to add that ID in payment info. Admin will look for the invoice by ID when he receives payment in his bank account.

Admin will activate the purchase by using EDIT INVOICE button

In Users - Edit Users you can check and confirm the user has received the package ID, listings included and featured included automatically.

The package will expire based on Memberhip Package expiration setting.

Wire Transfer does not work with the recurring option.

If you enable Paid Listing - User will be prompted to pay via WIRE TRANSFER for each listing.

Once Admin marks invoice as paid - property is published and owner is informed his property was published on the website

### FREE SUBMISSION

First, enable this setting so people can receive their user and password when registering.

Then create the User Dashboard pages:

Make sure that the User Menu is enabled (it includes login & register options)

You can also create separate pages with Login and Register shortcodes.

### PAID SUBMISSION

Decide from the beginning if you want to have PAID submission or Membership Packages.

Changing options on the way, after your users have already registered and sent listings, is not recommened as the theme doesn't count listings published / added before the switch.

Make sure that you've done all steps described in Membership & Payment Settings, Free Submission, PayPal settings, Stripe Settings or Wire Transfer.

Next set the price for the Paid Submission and currency:

Users will see the price and payment options in My Properties List- User Dashboard.

### MEMBERSHIP SUBMISSION

Decide from the beginning if you want to have PAID submission or Membership Packages.

Changing options on the way, after your users have already registered and sent listings, is not recommened as the theme doesn't count listings published / added before the switch.

Consider also the following:

Each new account gets a free MEMBERSHIP at registration, with free listings included and free featured listings set by Admin.

New in v 1.09 - you can set the expiration date for each free listing.

Free Listing expiration considers the publish date + the number of days set in admin. User will ne informed about every free listing expiring via email.

A Paid Membership package includes: Name, payment cycle (day, week, month or year), payment cycle value (x days, x weeks and so on), listings included, featured listings included (deduct from total listings), package price and option to display package or not.

Users see all packages in User Dashboard and can select to upgrade/downgrade package from the same page.

If a package is recurring, only user can cancel subscription in his PayPal account.

When user changes mebership, his old subscription is replaced with the new subscription instantly.

Even if deleted, listings are still counted in user's membership.

Users can choose to have a package recurring (the payment repeats every x day/week/month/year, as you've set for the package).

If user's package expires because he didn't renew or he doesn't have money in account, the package returns to FREE MEMBERSHIP by default.

All his listings will have status EXPIRED (expired listings won't show in listings). If user decides to renew package, he can re-submit EXPIRED listings for approval. He'll be able to re-submit only the number of listings allowed by his current package.

###

### Design

### Pins Management

Theme default pins are offered in the theme pack in .png format. You can edit these images with programs such as Fireworks.

When you edit/add default categories and actions, you'll need to upload new Pins.

When you create new categories, ALWAYS LET WORDPRESS CREATE THE SLUG (title and slugs must always match for search results).

This applies for CATEGORIES, ACTIONS, CITIES and AREAS you create.

    display:none;
    }

This ID can be added in Admin when adding/editing property or in Front End submission form when submitting property.

### Advanced Search not working?

IMPORTANT!

1. For search to work, custom taxonomies CITY, AREA, CATEGORY and ACTION must have title and slug match. Let WordPress create the slug for the new categories you add.

Add Pins and Icons after each slug edit from Admin - Theme Options - Pin Management.

2. If you choose custom search fields - check that you have set the Advanced Search fields comparison correctly. See above screenshot.

3. If the advanced search page doesn’t open like in demo, make sure you have the page with Advanced Search in the active pages. That is installed with the theme and should not be deleted. The page should have the Custom Page Template – Advanced Search Results.

    }

        padding: 12px 30px;
        color: #fff;
        text-align: center;

    }

    .featured_property .hot-offer,
    .property_listing .hot-offer {
    font-size: 12px!important;
    padding: 7px 0px;
    }

    .ribbon-wrapper-new-offer{
        background: #FB6A5C;
    }

     .new-offer{
        font-size: 15px!important;
        padding: 12px 30px;
        color: #fff;

### 8. Translation

You can translate WP RESIDENCE WordPress theme in any language with POEdit. To use this module follow these steps:

- 1. Download and install POEdit.
- 2. With POedit open the file wpresidence.po located in languages folder.
- 3. Translate the file using poedit and save the file with the proper name (for example de_DE.po). If the file name is not right the translation will not work. See this link for the proper name.
- 4. Upload the .po and . mo files in wp-content/themes/wpresidence/languages/ folder.
- ***5. Open wp-config.php (is in root folder of WordPress) and set the WPLANG prefix with your language name (same as the file name you just saved). Ex define(‘WPLANG’, ‘de_DE’);

***(before wordpress 4.0)

In summary for wordpress 4.0 and above, step 5 is replaced with these:

a. First you need to install WordPress in your language – http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress_in_Your_Language

b. Translate the wpresidence.po to any language you wish to POEDIT .

c. Upload language via FTP in wpresidence/languages folder.

You should have now wpresidence.po, wpresidence.mo + your new language po and mo

NOTE: On some servers, step b and c can be replaced by Codestyle Localization Plugin.

b. Also you need to check if the language file has the correct name – help here: http://wpcentral.io/internationalization/

c. After all those steps go in Admin – General Settings and you should see a dropdown with Languages. This is where you will find the languages available based on what you did on step 1. Select your language and that should be all.

### There are several items that you can edit in Theme Options (we left this easy to manage for any language). Please see below:

a. For Property Details, Property Features, Property Address – these labels are managed from Admin – Theme Options – Listing labels. Please see this help http://help.wpresidence.net/#!/editsettings

b. For Property Features & Amenities – please go and edit them in Admin – Theme Options – Listing Custom Fields –http://help.wpresidence.net/#!/editsettings

c. For Property Fields – custom fields – please go to Listing Custom Fields – http://help.wpresidence.net/#!/customfields

NOTE: Some default properties fields are managed from POEDIT (Address fields, Bedrooms, Rooms, Bathrooms, Size, Property Size). The rest are managed from admin.

d. For Advanced Search labels – custom fields, managed from Options – Advanced Search http://help.wpresidence.net/#!/advsearchfields

Note 1: If you don’t have custom advanced search enabled, all fields are translated in POEDIT.

Note 2: Dropdowns (All Cities, All Areas, All Types, All Listings – are managed only from POEDIT).

### 9. dsIDXpress WordPress Plugin compatibility & other IDX plugins

Also, you must add 1 property in Admin - Properties - and pin it on the map for the properties in the IDX LISTINGS widget to show.

http://wordpress.org/plugins/dsidxpress/ plugin must be installed separately and it requires and account and monthly fee to be used.

### WP Estate offers custom support for the following:

- WP Estate lists dsIDXpress Listings in the header map, same as we do with the properties you add in this theme’s wp-admin.* (see limitation below)

- You can change the pin for dsIDXpress Listings in wp-admin

- We’ve built custom CSS for 4 dsIDXpress sidebar widgets: IDX Areas, IDX Search, IDX single Listing, IDX listings.

- We’ve built custom CSS for the following shortcodes: Insert Single Listing from MLS data (by dsIDXpress) & Insert Listings from MLS data (by dsIDXpress)

- We’ve built custom CSS for some pages (imported from dsIDXpress)

Limitations imposed by dsIDXpress plugin developers:

- *dsIDXpress listings show on the header map ONLY when IDX Listing widget is listed on the sidebar, as we showcase on this page. This widget can show only 50 properties at one time, so only 50 IDX properties can show on the header map.

NOTE: You can create different sidebars with a different IDX Listing widget to show up to 50 listings on the map for different pages.

- Advanced Search doesn’t apply to dsIDXpress listings.

- Google Maps filters don’t apply to dsIDXpress listings.

- Agent page does not show listings by Agent MLS ID number after the contact form.

How to Translate Widgets

The only widget that needs translation is Featured Property widget since WPML creates a unique ID for translations.

The rest Widgets text translate with POEDIT for each language as those are default texts.

Contact Widget details are translated from String Translation.
