Всё необходимое для старта

Плагин даёт всё необходимое для запуска каталога, маркетплейса или сайта объявлений: пользователи смогут легко размещать объявления, управлять ими и находить нужное.

• Пользовательские поля – создавайте поля любых типов для объявлений с собственными правилами проверки и настройками отображения, адаптируя страницу объявления под нишу вашего сайта.
• Фильтры поиска – превращайте любое настраиваемое поле в фильтр поиска, чтобы пользователи могли быстро находить нужные объявления по конкретным параметрам.
• Категории объявлений – добавляйте неограниченное количество многоуровневых категорий с пользовательскими полями для каждой, чтобы структурировать каталог и упростить навигацию.
• Учетные записи пользователей – у каждого зарегистрированного пользователя есть аккаунт, где можно добавлять объявления, управлять ими и редактировать публичный профиль.
• Редактор шаблонов – настраивайте макеты страниц без навыков программирования с помощью привычного редактора блоков WordPress.
• Редактор писем – как и с макетами, изменяйте любые стандартные email-уведомления и настраивайте их прямо в панели управления WordPress.

HivePress не ограничивается базовой функциональностью, поскольку платформа построена по модульному принципу и легко расширяется с помощью дополнений. Например, вы можете установить бесплатные расширения из репозитория WordPress и добавить в каталог Избранное, Сообщения, Геолокация, Отзывы и другие функции буквально в несколько кликов.
