      • Theme integration for Vbulletin or other forum softwares.

        It would be great if WooThemes had a theme or extension that was able to integrate the header and footer into the forums we are hosting on the same site.

        Even better would be able to login from the blog side of the site.

        I feel like a large percentage of WooTheme users would be setting up communities these days especially with the addition of WooCommerce.

        I would love to hear others thoughts.

        • Stop Featured Sliders from Sliding While Playing Videos in Scrollider

          When playing video in the Featured Post Slider (on the homepage) with Scrollider, the video plays but the slider continues to slide. There should be some kind of setting that disables the slide when videos are playing so they can play uninterruptedly. Unfortunately, the "Slider Hover Pause" button (Hovering over featured slider will pause it) does not work for videos.

          • 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…

            • Features Plugin

              The current features plugin allow you to post one set of features and to show them on the site and this is very limited.
              I think that the features plugin should have features groups (taxonomies) and that on the front end/widget you can specify the group you wish to feature, this way, you can create special features for different sections of the site (for example, if you have more then one service..)

              Thanks

              • WooCommerce Product Add-ons

                Make it so you only have to create a product add-on one time, then you can apply that add-on to your product(s). (I'm needing to re-create a few add-ons to use on multiple products.)

                  Fix this! Woocommerce "Settings" page. Under the "eMail" Tab, doesn't make any sense. " For more advanced control copy woocommerce/templates/emails/ to yourtheme/woocommerce/emails/.@ Does that mean we have to add the woocommerce directory into the plugin, into the theme directory?

                        • View Orders by role on Front End

                          For woocommerce: Could be used for affiliates or for Dealerships with sub-dealerships, but we have dealerships that sell our product in exlcusive sales territories, within in those sales territories they can set up sub-dealerships and it would be helpful if those Dealerships could view the orders of the sub-dealers. Current affiliate plugins don't offer anything like this, except for commission amount (and very limited at that)

                          • Apps Apps Apps

                            We're starting in Belgium with a new organization to inform, teach and organize meetings about apps. Apps from Apple and also Android.

                            We're looking for a great theme what will reflect the apps and also make sure that we can write information about the app.

                            On the website we will also make a members only section where member can find more information. Maybe later you'll make a membership plugin also?

                            Kind regards from Belgium

                              • Variable excerpt lengths for Featured Posts and Grid Posts (Canvas Magazine)

                                Using Canvas Magazine template.

                                My featured posts have a large thumbnail. The standard 40 words leaves a large gap. I can fill this up by using the Advanced Excerpt plugin, but then the excerpt is too long for the grid-posts section.

                                It would ideal if the excerpt length for the featured and the grid section was controllable. Currently we can control the thumbnail size, but if the accompanying excerpt cannot be controlled then it looks too sparse having the thumbnail sizes different.

                                It would also be great to port some of the controls from Advanced Excerpt into WooCanvas.

                                Cheers

                                  • Features Plugin: Allow more than one Post ID to be specified to display

                                    It would be good if you could specify more than 1 post ID when using the features plugin widget to display.

                                    Example - Have 2 'features' widgets configured for the home page. One widget is titled "At a glance" and displays 3 unique features. The next feature widget is titled "Possible uses" and displays 3 different features. This would be done by specifying the 3 relevant post ID's for one widget and 3 for the other.

                                    At the moment, the code only allows you to specify 1 post ID.
