Integration with AutomateWoo?

[Belinda]

Hi,
I was just wondering as your plugins work so well with other marketplace plugins, does your plugin integrate with AutomateWoo or an email management system?

I am creating a subscription based website for a client that will allow subscribers to choose between a few package options containing a combination of features including advertising a business via a business directory listing and the ability to add products into a marketplace set up.

If I was to use your products, firstly what plugins would I need and secondly can a funnel sequence be linked within the process. (I realise you don’t do business directories and I have a plugin in mind for this part)

To make it clearer, process would be:
1. customer enquires about advertising on my client’s website
2. My client sends package options to customer
3. Customer selects package and pays subscription fee (set to recur annually)
4. customer enters email chain with links to forms to complete business listing registration and link for marketplace / vendor dashboard to list products in woocommerce.
5. customer manages listings and products via admin portals.

I hope this makes sense.

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

Thanks for get in touch with us.

My comments starts with ***

*** Well, this plugin only works for Site Admin, it does not have multi-vendor compatibility. For Admin you may off course us.

*** WCFM works with WP Job Manager (https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-job-manager/) as Directory plugin
Don’y get confused, it’s not only for Job based site, you may create any kind of listing/directory site using this. There has many themes based on this plugin –
1. Listify
2. Listable
3. My Listing
4. etc …

To make it clearer, process would be:
1. customer enquires about advertising on my client’s website
2. My client sends package options to customer
3. Customer selects package and pays subscription fee (set to recur annually)
4. customer enters email chain with links to forms to complete business listing registration and link for marketplace / vendor dashboard to list products in woocommerce.
5. customer manages listings and products via admin portals.

*** Why so? They are able to create all this from WCFM frontend dashboard. WCFM has a special module for this as well to associate products with listings (https://wclovers.com/knowledgebase/wcfm-product-listings/) based on this addon – https://astoundify.com/products/wp-job-manager-products/

Thank You

Oh wow, that is great. Thank you. I will look into all this and the fact I can link your product with WP Job Manager is great.

Thanks so much.

Just another question… sorry…

Can I use your plugin and WP Manager with any theme? I know WP Job Manager is in Listify as it’s their theme, but I assume I can use it with any theme?

At this stage looking to use Divi.

Hi,

Yeah sure, you may use any theme.

Well, Listify uses WP Job Manager for creating listing, but those are not from same author.

Thank you

Thank you for your help. I have been looking into all the plugins I would need.

I am just still a little confused with this comment

“*** Well, this plugin only works for Site Admin, it does not have multi-vendor compatibility. For Admin you may off course us.”

Does, that mean I also need to have a plugin like Product Vendors or the like installed along with the list of plugins in the article being…
Required plugins –

WP Job Manager
Products for WP Job Manager
WooCommerce
WCFM Free
WCFM Ultimate

And, I have looked at WP Job Manager and it seems very styled to be a resume / job board style. How would I make it more directory like? Would I need a theme like Listify / listable to do this? I am planning to use Divi.

Thank you again, I appreciate your help and sorry for sounding confused. I just want to get it right before committing.

Cheers.

I’d also like to clarify, for the process I am looking at, would I need your membership plugin as well for the subscription side of it?

And does your plugin mean that customers who opt to join this website listing both products and a listing (using wp job manager and product add on) will only have the one login as the portals are combined?

Thank you again.

Hi,

For having marketplace feature you have to install this plugin – https://wordpress.org/plugins/wc-multivendor-marketplace/
It’s WCFM own multi-vendor module.

For vendor membership/subscription may use this – https://wordpress.org/plugins/wc-multivendor-membership/

For customer membership may use this – https://wordpress.org/plugins/ultimate-member/

Listify, Listable, My Listing etc are specially build listing/directory theme.
But, you may use WP Job Manager with any theme to create directory site. Don’t get confused with plugin’s name, it’s not only for job sites 🙂

Require this plugin to associate products with listings – https://astoundify.com/products/wp-job-manager-products/

Thank you

[Belinda]

Thank you so much. That is great!!

Do you have a demo site with this set up or your marketplace in action I can look at and show my client?

They have also asked, with this set up, will the customer only have one login to manage both their listing and products? That is, will that just have the one dashboard or portal to manage?

Thank you again!
