I’m working on a booking site for live music based on the rental hive theme and some other of your plugins (requests, marketplace etc)
I would like the option for clients on the site (buyers) to be able to send a personal request to a specific band (listing). When I tick the field allow sending personal requests I can’t seem to see a new button or a new structure? What admin settings do I need to active so users can request a specific band? Right now we prices/fees on the site but considering hiding them, since there are few fixed prices in live music. It’s more a service than a product.
Unfortunately, there is no such function for listings, this feature is available exclusively for vendors. You can enable it in HivePress > Settings > Requests > Allow sending personal requests, then when you go to the vendor profile, you will see a button to send a personal request.
P.S. If you purchased a theme or extension, please enter the license key in the forum profile settings, this will enable the Premium Support badge and ensure a 24-hour turnaround time.
Right now we have hidden the hosts since it doesn’t make sense for us to show the single musician who is behind the band - we are only interested in showing the listing (band).
In this thread your colleague Ihor seemed to give the impression that it was indeed possible to make the personal request button appear on the listing.
Unfortunately, this is not possible, it will require a custom implementation. In the topic you mentioned, we simply added a button display for personalized request for the vendor itself.
