Hi,

One thing you don’t seem to cover is how vendors create accounts?
Is this already built into dokan and the fields can be customised to suit your dynamic data needs? If so, can this also be easily customised for appearance
Or does this operate through the Wordpress account creation?
Is this plugin compatible with Jetengine?

Thanks

I hope you still check these. I am trying to upload the Dokan themes... but I'm on a Mac and it appears it unzips the Dokan Develop and has it as a folder. When I try to upload theme, ( at 12:05 you upload the zip ) but in my Mac, the folders are available for upload, but many options in the whole folder can't be uploaded... which things do I need from the Dokan Develop folder? Is there another way to upload the whole package in a Mac? Do I have to upload from a Windows based computer, can I control still with a Mac?

I'd like to create a market place where sellers pay for being on the platform, but I don't want to take a cut of their business. Is this possible? Also I want to be able to guarantee that they upload certain certificates or a certain number of photos. Do you think this would work?

[mikesabatini]

I love the clarity, pace and depth of information in this video. You answered all of my questions and I am well underway in the back end of setting up my marketplace. One of the vendors I have wants to have an auction site and it looks like Dokan accommodates that. Do you have a video focused on auctions? Thank you again!

Hi Mr Web. I'm working on a multi ecommerce myself with some creative twist, and learning as I go. I'm using the astra and free elementor version, Dokan. the problem, I can't seem to figure out for weeks is why my basket sliding animation that are comes from the right side swing all the way to the left fast and back to the right to show 40%. Any suggestion why the basket / cart when click on would swings out from right to left and settle back at right? i just want the basket / cart when click on it slide sideway halfway and stop. Any suggestion?

I am having issue with hero section, i can't find the stretch option in my elementor and as a result, the hero section is not as wide as the rest of page. I've tried using elementor fullwidth option but it's still not working, it's not wide to enough to match rest of the site. Any assistance towards this problem will be highly appreciated. Thanks.

I want to put an ID verification tool do u got any idea how to implement it

[nigelmontague]

Hello.
Have been watching this video over and over for the past week as you cover everything in great detail, and as a total beginner its overwhelming at first.
But you've helped make up my mind to go with Dokan.
Another question... can you build it for me, as Im worried I'll miss some of the incredible features available as I just dont know what they mean, or even how to find them.

[Monaco-tbks]

Hi Good evening, hope you are doing great!
I was following along with this great tutorial, and installed dokan as well the theme, however; I am getting this error, "Your theme (dokani) contains outdated copies of some WooCommerce template files. These files may need updating to ensure they are compatible with the current version of WooCommerce. Suggestions to fix this?

[cyriac]

Hi,
Thank you for the great tutorial. I am new in WordPress/Dokan/Elementor and at 1:01:20 when changing the template and adding the condition "include - Entire Site", suddenly all my pages take the appearance of the vendor store even the Cart and no purchase is possible anymore. Should I select another condition or do I do something wrong?
Thanks
