Why Should You Choose the iBid Theme?
As mentioned in the introduction of this theme review, if you’re looking for a solution in order to create an Online Auctions Site in WordPress, this could be the one for you.
Whether you are new to WooCommerce or an experienced website developer, iBid should be suitable for you. More experienced users can also take advantage of the custom styling of the current pages, shortcodes, or product grids via CSS styling.
iBid Auctions Theme can be used for multi-purpose online shopping or auctions websites such as:
- Multi-vendor shopping marketplace;
- Multi-vendor auctions marketplace;
- Multi-vendor shopping and auctions marketplace (mixed products can also be added on iBid Theme).
- Single-vendor online shop;
- Single-vendor auctions shop;
- Single-vendor shopping and auctions shop (mixed products can also be added on iBid Theme).
As mentioned above, the iBid theme can be used alongside a marketplace plugin to have multi-vendor functionality. It is compatible marketplace plugins: Dokan, WCFM Marketplace, WC Vendors, or without a marketplace plugin when there will be only one vendor on the site (most probably the administrator of the site).
iBid Theme Features
Frontend Submissions: When using iBid, your vendors will be able to submit their auction products directly from their frontend dashboard. There is no need to access the regular WordPress dashboard in order to submit auctions or products (simple, variable, etc).
WooCommerce Shop Engine: iBid uses the most popular WordPress eCommerce plugin to add the shopping feature to a WordPress site. WooCommerce can be extended with lots of amazing add-ons such as Payment Processors, Coupons, Offers, and easy checkout. See more WooCommerce related plugins on wordpress.org.
