The Support Team is the most important section for most of the users that for some reason may need a proper attendance and guidance either solving their needs and doubts that may occur along the way.
Below are some of the orientations that our users shall be aware while requesting help on our Support Channel.
Solving issues & Identify bugs
Users are fully covered regarding this topic. It’s also important to mention that a good support is also required a good communication between users and engineers.
To fully solve the issues and related bugs it’s extremely important that users have a well-defined explanation of what has happened and where was the issue or bug found.
Moreover, it’s highly recommended that users send images through the upload section as well as videos with external links if applicable.
Most of the issues experienced by our users were due to misconfiguration (either by servers and on core theme) as well as lack of WordPress Fundamentals.
We highly recommend our users to read our Knowledge Base in order to find out how to enable/disable most of the functions available on ListingPro.
ATTENTION
If you haven’t found any article on our Knowledge Base that could solve your issues, don’t forget to give us this detail. This way we can give a better coverage for related doubts.
Code snippets & customization
Whether you want to customize the design layout, changing its colors, behaviors, formats, and alignments, our Support Channel can give you the appropriate support and give you details on where to find those codes and where it should be applied correctly.
Furthermore, it’s highly recommended that you have at least a basic knowledge of HTML and CSS in order to manipulate these codes as well as acknowledge that every change should be accompanied by a previous backup to hold the latest stage of your settings in case of WordPress updates, Themes and Plugins updates, Child Theme, and others.
ATTENTION
If you do not have prior knowledge of how to edit the files and code snippets, we’d recommend users to head over to our Customization Team in order to specify every need that you may decide to accomplish with your business.
3rd Party Compatible Plugins
Some users still want to include their paid plugins to work exclusively with ListingPro Core Features. It’s important to notice that ListingPro was built from scratch and there’s no dependency of 3rd Party Plugins to perform the core functions for a perfect Directory Service.
We don’t make any test that may compromise the freedom and security of our Solution. By this way, users can test their plugins on their own but we do not recommend to use 3rd Party Plugins.
Please, bear in mind that those plugins are the ones that strictly affects the core modules and the functionalities available on ListingPro. Plugins that its functions are to handle with optimization, database, cache, SEO and others, users can use and test it without any worries. Each user will have their preferences on choosing between AIO SEO vs YOAST and others plugins to enhance and scale up their Directory Business.
ATTENTION
Even though deciding to use WooCommerce or any other plugin such as Events, Booking, Coupons, users should then head over to the Customization Team and fill up the form with explained details to accomplish your needs and expectations.
It’s good to understand that ListingPro Team is really compromised with user’s freedom and security while using our Solution for their business. We cannot cover support or protect any security flaws, denial of services by these Plugins and any related aspect that may compromise ListingPro usability in near future while using some 3rd Party Plugins.
Customization Team
This sector is apart from the Support Channel, but by some users requests and depending on their needs and desires we cannot fully attend all users needs, because it’s either required a specific customization that may change the whole aspect of the core features as well as some pre-requisites to achieve a better result for each user’s requests and expectations.
In case you have an idea for a feature but you don’t necessarily want to wait for the feature to be placed on the roadmap and be approved by the community of users on the Feature Bucket Page, then it’s needed to head over to our Customization Team.
you are not obligated to ask for customization. Some users change their entire business on their own without even going to the Support Channel or Customization Team.
ATTENTION
If for some reason you need urgency to customize your business and you don’t want to wait for the upcoming releases and roadmap. Then, the Customization Team is your best choice.
