What it does
Building a directory site means handling many listings, sorting them into categories and giving visitors a way to search through them. This theme handles that work through HivePress for listing management and WP Job Manager for job posting. You can add, edit and categorize listings such as properties, vehicles, jobs or local points of interest, and visitors can use search and filtering options to narrow results to what matches their criteria.
The theme includes 4 demos aimed at real estate, car finder, job board and city guide sites, plus more than 90 customizable sections and static pages. Each demo offers multiple homepage layouts, including single and dual homepage options. Page design runs through Elementor, so you can adjust layouts with drag and drop editing instead of code, and the theme also works with Elementor Pro. The layout is responsive and retina ready for desktops, tablets and phones.
