Can you translate this course on the Arabic language channel

[@_MRBETTER]

Hi Darrel, Loved this video. But this is the exactly same as previous video. I recommend you to do local multi-vendor website including taking care of shipping / how will vendors or admins can work shipping, like connecting local shipping, choosing the right logistics etc / thanks

[@bootag3895]

Dear Darrel Wilson, Kindly, please make a video on divi multi vendor store with this type of layout.

[@DannyDiViNE]

You the man Darrel .. you did tell me in your member ship video comment this was possible so I went through your videos and sure enough you show how this was possible .. thank you so much I didn’t even watch the video yet and had to thank you lol

Hey, on the main page, the call to action block, when scrolling on the tablet, it becomes square, how to fix it?

[@sammbende2]

hi Darrel, i really love the Xtronic gift. However, the templates aint working. Errors when tryin to upload despite the elementor pro. Possible fix? Thanks D

[@henrydillon2115]

Hello Darrellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll....sorry for that, I'm just over excited after watching this video. I wanted to ask if there was a way to automatically transfer money to vendors when they request for a withdrawal instead of having to go to pay pal and then do it manually as you showed in the video. Also, I'm in Ghana, a country west of Africa. Here, instead of credit cards or paypal etc, most people prefer to use MOMO. This is actually much more easier to use since you just have to use your mobile number to register a 'bank account' with your service provider and then you have your money on your phone. In my case the buyers and sellers will prefer this option to pay pal for instance. i don't know if there's a plugin like that that i could add.

[@darrelwilson]

it doesnt work automatically. You may need to send the withdrawals manually

[@thefranklin1213]

@Henry Dillion I want to have a discussion with you…. Can I have your number please

[@owusukenneth1392]

the xtronic template gives me error sometimes.. And in cases where it works, the images seem missing.. can you please help me out?

[@jeanparacelse]

How do you force users to process payments on your website instead of in person? Some local users may decide to pay when they see the merchandise in person, therefore bypassing the store commission system.

[@dinspiration_talks]

I also need an answer to this nice question

[@assilbellaoui6660]

You can't force them what you can do is minimize it through on site benefits when purchasing like points or Sales... To encourage ppl to use the website to buy.

[@julietgitau9475]

Thanks for the great tutorial Darrel. Is there a way to have the store name as an optional rather than mandatory field when the vendor is registering?

[@HassanGhazawi]

Hi Darrel, I'd like to ask you if there is any way to give vendors different levels of options if I'm in a paid plan?

[@IrynaPasternak]

hey Darrel, thank you so much for this tutorial, its really helpful, I am creating my own multi vendor site and this has really solved most of my major concerns on how i am supposed to go forward with it. thanks a lot and stay blessed!

Hey Man I Hope every Worked It all The best version It coulda be but can you give to me your feedback from It cause I'm on my way to do so.

[@markvalentine9119]

Can we use other payment processors like Redde or Square or WorldPay?

[@everybooking2691]

Great tutorial, thanks. Question: My store vendors are categorised. How do I list the stores within the vendor category and THEN once the user selects the specific store it should list the products ?

[@halleluyaholuwapelumi1687]

Hello. I am glad you asked this question. I have been on a project that is using Dokan for multivendor and it needs this for about a week now. I have looked stack overflow, WordPress community etc. No one could help. I don't want my vendor store to show the products directly. I want it to show categories (Of the products) and when a category is clicked, it shows the products therein. Apparently, this is not a function in the plugin yet. Please, kindly give me pointers when you get the solution. I will be immensely grateful. Thank you again. I know this is a public space but let me know if it is okay to put my email here so you can email me incase this gets lost amidst the comments. Thank you.

Hi! When you explain the shipping you expect that every store/vendor is from USA. How does it work with vendors in other countries than i'm registrated in?

[@alexh3199]

Thank you for the help. I thought I saw it in the video earlier but I cant seem to find it so apologies. How to I make sure that customers can shop from multiple vendors at the same time? Thank you.

[@darrelwilson]

Hey! To ensure customers can shop from multiple vendors simultaneously, configure your Dokan settings to enable multi-vendor shopping. This feature allows customers to add products from different vendors to their cart and check out in a single transaction. Check the Dokan documentation or settings under Dokan > Settings > General to make sure this option is enabled. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.

[@NaliBroadcast]

What is the best one compatible with the Arabic language any idea? I mean support RTL direction

Hey Darrel! great vid, I just wanted to ask you if you know of any plugin that will add a function to trade products between vendors. So the vendor can sell to regular customers for money, but can trade with other vendors product for product. Thanks man!

Thanks a lot !! I can not find better video :D Do I need Doken pro plan + elementor pro to add your layout for product page et shop page ? Or only elementor pro ?

[@bbpai8243]

Hi Darrel, I watched probably hundreds of hrs of many of yours video. Step by step... using a lot of the same theme. I'm working on a multi ecommerce myself with some creative twist, and learning as I go. Then I recently I like your 2024 ecommerce, you using Blocksy, but I keep 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?

[@darrelwilson]

Hey! The cart animation issue might be due to a CSS or JavaScript conflict. Temporarily switch to a default theme and disable all plugins except Elementor and Dokan, then re-enable them one by one to find the conflict. Ensure everything is updated and check the browser console for errors when clicking the cart. This should help resolve the problem.

[@mohammedeleffe1773]

Hello Sir, Thanks for this great explanation. Just i have a question, is possible in a way to combine multi stores and dropshipping method in one website??

[@sarvarsaidov7058]

Hey Darrel been looking for multivendor plugins, thanks great content:) would be a great idea to make content around making wordpress SaaS websites as there are a lot of different plugins that not everyone knows which we can utilize, like booking or service sites with multivendor functionality.

[@1quilmuzik]

Hey @darrel...Shop page 3 template not loading

[@bridgestoafrica3809]

Also, how do we incorporate printing shipping labels for the vendors? Thanks again.

[@darrelwilson]

Hey! To incorporate printing shipping labels for vendors in Dokan, you can use a third-party plugin like "WooCommerce Shipping" or "Dokan Shipping" for the integration. You can also use plugins like "ShipStation" or "WooCommerce PDF Invoices & Packing Slips" to automate and generate shipping labels for vendors. These plugins allow vendors to print their own shipping labels directly from their dashboard. Make sure to set up the shipping options for vendors within Dokan's settings. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below.

Hi there, please between Dokan and wcfm, which one is the best plugin to use?

[@AidelJoyYoung]

hello! thank you for the video! however, seems like the allow vendor to register part was not discussed so much? how was the form created etc and is there a way this can be customized? thank you!

[@darrelwilson]

Hey! Thanks for your feedback! In the Dokan tutorial, the vendor registration form can be customized through the Dokan settings. You can find options to modify fields and layout in the Dokan > Settings > Vendor Settings section. If you want more detailed customization, you might need to use hooks or custom code. Feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!

[@AM-vz2lw]

Thank you for the great video, is there a way with professional version for venders and buyers message each other on the platform pending the site owner approval? Ebay and Airbnb have this feature so their buyers and sellers do not go around them. PS I followed you video step by step but I was not able to get the registration form for customers and vendors. Did you entre a code that is not in the video or only the pro version of Dokan has this form( under allow vendors to register 58:14 minutes)?

Darrel, I noticed that we need to have a PayPal account in order to approve or send the amount to the vendor manually, is that true? Because I live in a country not covered by PayPal or Stripe. In addition, do I need a stripe account to also send the money to the vendor if they selected the bank transfer option only?

I believe I'd be fairly confident to build most myself (I have another sucessful directory website but I need a more improved theme) but may need to hire your services to complete before going live, is this something that you offer please?

58:55 Hi, how do I delete the shop URL on the registration section of the vendor or turn off the * for vendors who don't have shop URL or online shops?

[@darrelwilson]

Hey! In Dokan, you can make the shop URL optional by going to Dokan > Settings > Vendor Registration to adjust the registration fields if possible. If there's no option there, you might need a custom CSS tweak to hide the field. Let me know if you need more help-feel free to drop your questions in the comments below!

[@AnthonyLaney-o3z]

Darrel, I have a brief inquiry. Concerning the Dokan Multi-vendor plugin, is there a way to enable a vendor who maintains their own website to collaborate with us on an eCommerce page for product listings? In this scenario, if a customer makes a purchase on either our Multi-Vendor platform or the vendor's site, would the purchased items be reflected in the vendor's inventory on the Multi-Vendor dashboard? Additionally, is it possible to integrate the products listed on the vendor's website with the same checkout process, allowing customers to complete their purchase without leaving the vendor's website? Thank you for your assistance.
