You might be wondering what’s going on at Templatic? We were on a good momentum with continuous, useful product releases and then kinda stopped with the release of SpotFinder. What is happening? Well, this blog post is essentially a big update on what is going on at Templatic right now. A few months ago we started working on several improvements in our flagship product – Directory. One thing led to another and suddenly we realized that these changes don’t belong in a run of the mil update. With that in mind we set our path for the 2nd version of the product. Yes, Directory 2.0 is on the way! Work on this was started even before SpotFinder theme was released and we originally set for the date October 2nd, 2014.

The entire team is hard at work and we are testing and fixing all the bugs we can find out from every nook and corner. Our guess is that it should be ready in the next few weeks.

WooCommerce theme is coming up Apart from this, we have a WooCommerce theme (previewed earlier in SpotFinder theme release post) should come up next week if everything goes well. It is going to be the best WooCommerce theme we have come up with so far. Diwali holidays coming up (October 21-27, 2014) We have Diwali vacation coming up from October 21 to 27, 2014. Diwali in India is celebrated like Christmas and New Year in western countries. Entire team will be on holiday during this time and limited support will be available during this period. Classifieds module is coming up Right after Diwali, once the newer version of Directory is available, we have another module prepared... Read more »
