You read that right. After months of hard work, Directory theme version 2 is finally here. Instead of bloating the theme with lots of features, we focused on improving performance & usability of Directory theme. Lots of changes were made which makes things simpler and more organized.
We have taken the opinions of our users into consideration and tried to develop a more competent theme with some more features that can help you convert your visitors and have more financial benefits.
Over the next few weeks and months we will be presenting some of the most popular websites created with the business Directory theme. The first such site is Engdex.de. To find out as much as possible about the site I had a discussion with Brian Burroughs, the creator of Engdex.de. He was kind enough to answer all of my questions and provide a glimpse into what it’s like creating and running a directory website.
Ever since the original GeoPlaces and then Directory theme was released, the industry has adapted the trend set by templatic for listings kind of themes. Map at the top, listings at the bottom. It was great back then in 2011 when wide, big screens were not adapted yet. Things has changed and now we rarely see those 17″ screens being used. Screen space on both the side goes wasted while you are presented the content at the center of your screen.
And that’s why we are introducing the spotfinder theme, that is crafted with a unique AirBnb style design, to maximize the user experience.
On your website built with the Directory Theme, you can add custom markers/icons for each category. This will make your website even more intuitive and the visitors will find it easier to distinguish different categories with the help of different map markers.
But since our themes are built for non-technical people, they might find it difficult to find different map icons. And so we decided to release a set of free map markers that you can install and use in your site.
We released Directory theme after much consideration and a long duration of research, analysis and development. The directory theme is one of our most comprehensive products yet and it includes all the features that a fully functional directory site like AirBnb.
Directory is not just an awesome product, it’s an awesome product with a future! As time goes by we plan on making this theme the go-to product at Templatic and focus as many resources to it as possible.
