ClassiPress 3.3 is finally here and it brings several new great features. We’ve listened to your feedback and have been working hard the last few months to bring you an even more feature-rich theme.

Payments
Our powerful payments framework is now integrated with ClassiPress 3.3 meaning that payment gateways are not limited to PayPal and Bank Transfer anymore. Many additional gateways can be purchased from our Marketplace.

Build your own customer feedback site with our latest theme, Ideas. Give your customers their own space to create, discuss, and vote for ideas or suggestions and engage them on your site.

Ideas is a productivity theme which allows you to listen and engage your customers. Whether it’s a Web site suggestion, a new feature request for your product or a debate site — the Ideas theme will help bridge the communication gap.

Forums are an effective tool for discussion but not so effective if you need to monitor customers feedback. Ideas collects and prioritizes feedback from customers in a structured way. Customers post their suggestions, organized in categories, and others vote up or down. Votes are limited, which helps focus on the essential.
