HivePress Paid Listings

Do not use. Refuse to refund for software that literally doesn’t work. They acknowledge an ongoing issue with their software, but refuse to fully refund. response from their support after asking for a refund for an issue that makes the entire plugin unusable. « Yes, currently there’s a known issue related to the max_execution_time setting in PHP, but we plan to fix it next week, it’s already in progress. We can offer this fix within 14 days or less according to our refund policy [link removed] or if it’s urgent, I can make a partial refund of the Import extension in the bundle. » (I requested refund next day after not even being able to use it. They declined and stated they can only do a partial even after admitting their software didn’t work for what I need because of an issue on their end) That would be fine, except this has been an ongoing issue for months apparently. Look up hivepress 14000 imports on Google. Their software can’t handle large PHP requests. One post made over 5months ago and the issue is still not fixed. They keep advising they’re going to fix it to their customers but it doesn’t appear like they can, or they are and they refuse refund. Use at your own risk.

The only free option in Wordpress that actually works and allows you to create paid listings. You can set it so that people can buy 1 listing or a pack of 10 or whatever number of listings and charge for that. (Needs Woocommerce, also free, set up to use the paid listings function). The only small complaints I have are: Clicking on the « add listing » button takes you directly to a form to fill out for the listing. If you are logged out, it asks you to log in, if you are logged in and haven’t paid, it present you with the listing form, and only after you try to submit, does it asks you to pay. Not a good experience for customers to find out after they finished filling it out that they have to pay. Would prefer a dedicated page where you can add a listing and first, it shows you the packages that you need to purchase (eg free, 1 listing, 10 listings), pay, and then fill out the form.

1st need to install and active woocommerce plugin then It Works perfectly !! nice…
