Mega Menus
I would love the ability to add Mega Menus to themes, whether that be a new part of the framework or a new plugin.
By Mega Menu, I'm referring to the larger, expanded menus that allow for the multiple columns to pop up during roll over and the insertion of HTML items (images, etc).
For a direct application, I think Listings is a great first install. Being a directory theme, it that will most likely display LOTS of subcategories and a Mega Menu would make this much more manageable.

integrate eccommerce functionality with "listings" theme
why would you have a theme that allows for classified ads, buying and selling when you don't offer easy integration with payment services for uploading products and for buyers to pay sellers? it seems like you're missing the boat and it should be an easy fix

Manage listings (for listing contributors)
Right now, with the Listings theme, users registered as "listing contributors" can upload a listing from the front end, without accesssing the WP admin. It would be great if those same "listing contributors" could modify and delete their own listings from the front end, without ever seeing the WP admin.
For example, when they login to upload a new listing, they would also find a list of past listings with the links "modify" and "delete" next to them. When they would click on "modify", they would access the same form as the "upload a listing" form, but it would already…

Make the Column Shortcode Responsive
Whitelight is a responsive theme, but if you combine it will the column shortcodes it will not be responsive anymore. Those columns are based on %s, but I imagine it would be easy to say, after a certain width, they become full page width.
75 votesGreat idea, this.
This is something we’ve planned and are currently working on incorporating into the next iteration of the WooFramework.

Add "Slides" post type in Function theme
Function uses blog posts for the slider instead of the "Slides" custom post type like other business themes.
This was done based on the design spec of the theme.
Adding an option for a Slide post type would make the theme operate like other business themes.

Add option to include search box in Canvas menu
I was surprised to not find the ability to place a WordPress search box in the menu bar for the Canvas theme. Maybe I missed it in the various options...still looking...but this would be a helpful upgrade.

Whitelight Content Slider
Add content capability to Whitelight's slider so that users can include more text - using the content instead of the excerpt, and allow extra formatting for the inclusion of shortcodes - for buttons links, such as "Read More".

Font Icons Support in WooThemes and/or Woo Theme Framework
In the latest version of Canvas (5.10), the developers replaced some images with icon fonts (from FontAwesome) and by doing included elements of FontAwsome's open-source icon font infrastructure in the theme files.
I assumed that meant that I could use other font icons in my theme but it was not the case.
Here is why:
"We load the font files but not the css. We write our own styles to use the icons we need in the theme.
If the user wants to use the markup given in that article to display icons they will need to enqueue that stylesheet…

Statua Updates, Widgets, Tags, Excerpts
This was originally posted in the Statua Forum. I was asked to move it here. Most of these are issues that were mentioned early on at the initial release. The theme has a lot of potential but it feels more like a blog with photos than a photo gallery with an optional blog.
Just my Opinion.Hi,
Wondering if any of the following are possible inclusions in future versions?Widgets that are Photo oriented.
Tags for Photos
Excerpts for Photos
Ability to Include/Exclude Galleries/Photo Tags on pages using Layouts A, B or C
Control height of layout A to avoid…13 votes -
A layout with the Sidebar-Alt on the left and Content in the right
We would simply like to see being able to toggle the Canvas Custom Settings to Sidebar-Alt on the left and Content in the right instead of, only having the layout with Primary Sidebar on the left and content on the right.

Looping slider in function theme
The slider in the function theme should loop back to slide one after it is at its end. I was kind of disappointed when I figured this out, of course I probably just assumed it looped and didn't look for the feature before I purchased.
I think looping slide shows should be a standard in sliders.

Post Expirator for Listings theme
Listings really needs both a Post Expirator feature and management page for listings.
Currently I use the plugin 'Post Expirator' so I can set a time/date for listings to expire. This way if I sell an ad space for the month of December I can schedule to publish it on the 1st and unpublish automatically at midnight at end of December.
The problem with using that plugin is that it's very difficult, unless I keep a separate spreadsheet, to determine which listings are set to expire. If it was incorporated into the theme itself maybe you can make a column…
