A plan, not a promise

This roadmap was designed at the beginning of 2023 to give you an overview of upcoming changes. It may change and we cannot guarantee that everything on it will be released. We also add many smaller options that are too small to list here.

Please rate Listivo 5 stars if you like it (https://themeforest.net/downloads). Your review helps us develop a better product with more options and demos. Thank you very much!

Still on the roadmap

Map improvements

a) Map Design 2 - a full-width map with a "List View" button that hides the map and shows the list.

Full-width city map covered with price pins, a Search as I move the map checkbox at the top and a yellow List View button at the bottom

The same search shown as a grid of listing cards with category tabs and pagination, and a yellow Map View button at the bottom

b) Map Design V3 - one third search form, one third list, one third map.

Three-column search page: filter sidebar on the left, listing cards in the middle, map with price pins on the right

c) A free alternative to Google Autocomplete, so the theme works fully without a Google Maps API key.

Message system improvements

Listivo will tie a conversation to an ad, and users will be able to remove a conversation with the trash icon.

Messages page with one conversation row reading Chat with Ed Miller about iPad pro, $900, and a trash icon on the right

New demos and designs

Below is some graphic work in progress. We plan to create many new niche demos and to add more options to the existing ones.

a) Yacht demo

Yacht demo homepage: the heading Search yachts for sale or book a yacht charter above an aerial photo of two yachts, a three-field search bar and a welcome section below

b) Construction demo

Construction demo homepage in dark navy and yellow: Top Class Equipment in Los Angeles over a photo of a wheel loader, a search bar, and a yellow band of statistics

c) New homepages

Homepage concept with the headline Find Anything Around You and a search bar, framed by a collage of product photos

Homepage concept with a headline ending in make smart choice over a photo of a woman with a laptop, a search bar, a row of category icons and a round badge in the corner

Darker homepage concept with the headline Find Anything Around You over a photo of people at a laptop, a search bar, category icons and product photos in circles around the edges

d) Places ad example

Listing page for La Rosa Restaurant: star rating with reviews and a Write a review button, a photo gallery, a description, and a sidebar with a map, opening hours, phone number and links

e) Other graphic changes, for example rebuilding the user ad page.

More monetization improvements

We are thinking about new ways to display featured ads (for example three random ones on top of the search results) and about micropayments — users can upload 5 images, but can pay more to upload 20.

Ad ID flexibility

More flexibility in giving each ad a unique ID.

New custom field types

New types of custom fields, for example "Date", "Single image" and "Business Hours".

Hide phone numbers from guests

Phone numbers visible only to registered users. When somebody who is not logged in clicks a hidden number such as 123******, they will see a login and register popup.

Verified badge

We plan to let the admin show additional badges on user profiles.

Login and registration inside the Add Ad page

A contact information section at the end of the "Add Ad" form that creates an account for users who are not logged in.

Multilanguage support

The ability to use more than one language at the same time.
