SR Classifieds 1.0.2 Light

[Gio~Logist]

Id also like to see a selection box option for the additional fields, were users can select additonal terms, as opposed to the radio box list, and if a search function could be made to search the items that are selected in the selection box that would be grand

Loving this so far :D

That's a feature. Just select the checkbox list as the field type :p

[Jon_Simmonds]

When I select checkbox Im only seeing the radio tick boxes on the new add screen

It gives you the ability to select multiple.

[Da Drgon]

I noticed there has been some confusion to the "rating" in the forum posts (under the post count) for some users... I think it's a good idea to rename it to "Commerce Rating" or something to that effect to avoid confusion between it and user ratings (which is enabled on some boards, but not mine)

In case the lack of sleep is affecting my ability to show what i mean, here is a example of what i mean - http://www.scism.sbu.ac.uk/tkteach/cgiteach/selbox.html

That's the same as a drop down, except a different look. Is that what you meant?

[Quarterbore]

Before I hack this... Is there going to be a new main page to this that shows the last X items listed in all categories for the main page of this (ideally where X is defined in the Admin CP)?

I am starting the process of trying to figure the code out to do it myself so I figured if you were going to have this I might not invest the time...

The latest items are already listed on the mainpage. What exactly do you mean?

[Quarterbore]

What I am trying to do is make a home page that will show the latest classifieds in all categories on the home page. I have created a sample (please don't laugh at my "paint skills" ;) ) image that is attached.

I retained the stats of the original but I would like navigation on right or left (I showed it on the left) that allows my members to quickly go to the area they are interested in. I only think we need one "Add Advertisement Button" as when you post the advertisement you tell the script which directory it goes into. You can also see that I added an "Advanced Search" on the left... That will allow members to pick values from my custom fields (state, country, new-used, etc) and would then be used in the search criteria to limit results returned.

On the right, this is just a list of the last X classifieds... The Description text would link to the advertisement, category would link to the category the ad is from... It would be nice to be able to add more of the "custom" fields in this as well as perhaps location or ??? is important for some types of advertisements?

I have already started working on this but I am not that good at figuring out the mysql parts of code and the search strings in your little script has me quite confused..

I'll pay $100 for a page that looks like this when done (assuming you could help with the advanced seach as well...)

Oh yea, what gives with the negative times? I guess there is no "kill" for expired classifieds yet?

The negative times shows when the time is up. When the time is up i believe it's only viewable to admins anyways. Also, i will be able to make your page look like that. Contact me via PM for more info.

[Quarterbore]

I think we need more people to verify as I get negative times even when logged out of my site.. It shows three active ads but there are five shown and two have negative time...

http://www.timeshareforums.com/sr_classifieds.php?do=category&categoryid=1

Now, I have hacked my code to all heck learning how this works... I got your PM and I'll buy the premium with the upgrade as soon as you are ready to release... I have asked my members what else we would want so that I can help you improve this OR I can evaluate what I need to do on my end to customize it...

[glorify]

I believe it's because of the vb version. Try editing sr_classifieds.php and search for:
if($permissions['sr_classifieds'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp['sr_classifieds']['canedit'] OR $bbuserinfo[userid] == $user[userid]){


Change that to:

if($permissions['sr_classifieds'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp['sr_classifieds']['canedit'] OR $vbulletin->userinfo[userid] == $user[userid]){


Nope--doesn't work. Still get the same error. Any other ideas? Remember, this error occurs when you are trying to save permissions of usergroups in the admincp.

[Jon_Simmonds]

That's the same as a drop down, except a different look. Is that what you meant?

Yeah, since these can allow for multiple choices if the multiple="multiple" option is used in the html, I may have a shot at adding it myself

speaking of which, will there be a way to relist expired items to the user? or how about an "infinite" time option during initial listing?

[Quarterbore]

I also think we will want some method to delete the old ads and attachments, say after the ad is expired by X-days & defined in Admin CP... I would want to set them seperately in case I wanted an archive of old classified listings however....

I use Photopost pro and I have debated changing the images so that members leave the image in their member directory so it counts towards their total image limit... that way they can take care of the space issue themselves...

[Gio~Logist]

Ah yes, i remember your erorr now. Like i said before, i would need ftp information or something in order to look into it due to the fact that your vb is outdated and i may just need to see if perhaps it's just that they use a different code when saving permissions and such. Also, if i remember correctly, i tried disabling the hack on your site and still got that error.

Oh and by the way, you forgot to click install :p

[Gio~Logist]

I see. What i'm saying though is that multiple choices are available when using the checkbox feature. Have you tried that?

Changelog:
4-13-06
* Security patch while editing ads (there was a little hole) All that needs to be done is reuploading sr_classifieds.php

ZIP UPDATED!!!

[Gio~Logist]

Oops. The zip didn't upload right. Fixed. Redownload if you downloaded it previous to this post.

[Codeman05]

great hack.

However, I just installed it, and all appeared to be working fine until I tried to post a new add.

I recieved this error: "Could not find phrase 'sr_classifieds_upload_failed'."

[Codeman05]

btw, this only occurs when I try to upload a pic with the ad

[Codeman05]

ok, I'm an idiot, got it working.

However, what is that phrase? I would like to add it in, just incase it needs to appear for someone else

[Gio~Logist]

ok, I'm an idiot, got it working.

Yea i need to add that one.

Add the phrase:

varname: sr_classifieds_upload_failed
product: sr_classfieds
test: The image failed to upload.

[Lea Verou]

Oh also please include the functionality in the pro version to post as another user, so that we can transfer existing ads :)

If you uninstall the hack AND remove your xml, it is fine. No probs at all. I'll send you my ftp.

Hm. Strange. Very well then, i will be taking a look. I'm sure it's just a problem with your vb version, due to the fact that no one else has had this problem. So it shouldn't be that hard to fix hopefully.

[glorify]

It's gotta be the version--there's at least 3 of us here that have the same prob ;)

[Gio~Logist]

Yup. I'm looking it over now.

[Gio~Logist]

Hm. I'm still trying to figure it out. I posted this over at the coders section so that i can get some help from our fellow coders :p. I'm probably overlooking something.

Did i mention i hate vb3.5.0? lol

[glorify]

Just lemme know :)

I am so hacked up I don't wanna upgrade if I don't have to. However, with my ad season coming up and your hack--if you can't figure it out, I just may upgrade :(

[Gio~Logist]

Heh. Don't worry, i'm sure i'll find the problem. I'm just glad it's limited to those with an outdated vb (a lot less people to worry about).

[lazyseller]

gio~logist throw me on the list too... i will most likely be purchasing it as well for 2 sites

[lazyseller]

One feature i would like to see in all these classifieds script is the option to search by city or state....

Buyers like to ask questions

Also for timeframe is there a way to disable it ? what happans when a classified ad expires ?

When an ad expires, it's closed. The closed issue and such gets more complex (much more) in the premium version.

Any idea when this hack will support the process of migrating itrader hack to this hack?

[Gio~Logist]

The premium version will probably have that feature.

[lazytown]

I don't think it would take much to add this (just mime types/etc), but I'd like to see the ability for users to upload videos to their ads if they want. Again, for me the most important thing will be the little upcharges ($x for each of 20 different options, etc).

[Lazarous]

Hi!

Great looking hack here, although I am awaiting the premium version (hope I am still on ya list).

I installed this on a Temporary board and have the problem of closing an add.

Is there away the add can be closed once a transaction has happened but remain on view?

The reason I ask is this is not being used in the convential way. What I am doing is putting this on a "game" board so items can be sold in game so it won't be using paypal etc. Long story, but basically for a corporation board of players of Eve online.

If it's very distant, I'll get rolling with the Light version until I can upgrade.

Hi Gio

Thanks for the PM

Is this premium version able to show lates ads in forum home as i mentioned
a little while back?

If so do you have a screen shot of it please?

[Tulsa]

In trying to add extra fields in the ACP, the texts says:

Categories To Include This InPlease enter the ID's of the categories in which you'd like to have these options included in, seperated by a comma. Leave this blank for it to be in all forums.
Ex: 1,2,3

In the selection box however was the names of the categories and it would only allow me to enter one. There was no option for blank for all categories. This being the case, in adding the extra field, I will have to add it for each of the specific categories?

Multiple categories per field is a premium feature. I believe that was left there as a "tease" due to the fact that you can only have one category per field in the Light version :p

[bashy]

Wow......

Ok will sort it in a bit ;)

Take a look at www.siteresort.com. It shows them just as forums :p

[djwins]

Wow this looks SWEET.. To bad I have itrader installed and hate to try and migrate systems.... Will look at this for my other site...

Maybe the author can alter it so that it uses iTrader for its feedback system.
That would be hot.

[Tulsa]

Have the edit features for the ads been turned off in the lite version too? It appears to have that option in the usergroup section of the ACP, when attempting to edit an ad, it denies access.

[bashy]

I have a wee issue :(

In the premium how can i set i fo a usergroup to view but not place an add?

Also How do i move the Classifieds to a different location on the forum home.
I have a Mall forum and i would like it in there?

Also in the forum how the SR Classifieds should really b clikable so that t takes you to the classified home page?

EDIT:

Just got this error at top of my screen

In going through this today, this is what issues I've run into from the features listed above as working in this lite version.


* Ability to arrange ads in categories Not Working

* See how many total, closed, and open ads are in each category. Unknown as you have to wait for them to expire. As an admin you can't close one.

* Add extra fields to ads Working, but you have to build the same field for each category. So if you have eight categories you have to build "shipping costs" eight separate times.

* Ability to edit and delete ads Not Working - As an admin you have no control over anything but to edit only your own ad. You cannot delete yours or anyone elses ads.

* Search through ads Working on Ad headers only not working for descriptions


As a "lite" version this is unuseable and can merely act as a sort of sneak peak. Are these items working in the version you're selling?

Make sure you have the latest version of the zip as posted here.

- Having ads in categories - Does work
- Add extra fields - Yes the light version only allows one category per fied
- Delete and edit - Does work
- Search through ads - I will make it so that it searches through description as well if you'd like. I will update the zip shortly.

As for the premium version, to take a look at what it offers, go to www.siteresort.com

[Tulsa]

My apologies, ability to arrange ads in categories meant something different to me. Once stated as having them in categories is the same thing. Yes, that does work. I understand what you meant now.

Delete and Edit do not work. They do not work in FF on a MAC and they do not work in IE on a PC. I only downloaded this last night so I assume I have the latest version. I certainly won't rule out I've done something wrong but since the templates edits really have nothing to do with this function and I do have it checked in the user groups to be able to do this, I can't imagine what that would have been.

You said earlier that edit was removed as a teaser.

I have looked at your site and you seem very responsive to your customers. I am possibly however a tweener as far as this software is concerned. While the classifieds is very interesting, the auction portion is certainly more than I need at this time.

The premium version brings a lot more then just the auction feature. Check out the feature list. As for editing ads and such, make sure that you set the usergroup permisions.

And thank you for your fine comments. I try and answer to customers as fast and helpful as possible.

Ok, I re-uploaded the sr_classifieds.php, and now it can edit the ad, but when I re-submit the ad it shows me the "you don't have permission to access this page" message.

Also, I have another language on my site besides english and when I use it, the dates show only the "Date Format Override" set in the language options.

"The image type .JPG is not supported. Please go back and upload a valid type. The supported types are listed when uploading a picture."

.jpg works just fine.

I tried to add JPG to the list, but it won't let me, as jpg already exists.

any advice?

Overwrite functions_sr_classifieds_upload.php with with the one in the new zip i updated. I made it so it isn't capitalized sensitive.

I'm very interested in this script, and I might as well purchase the pro version when I have the cash, but I must know if the date format issue appears also in the pro version. Since your demo site only haves the default language I'm not able to test it myself. Thanks for everything.

If you purchase the premium version and still get this problem i will look into it. I will try and look into it now. However, i am a bit caught up with the premium version at the moment.

Ok, no worries man. :D

[Gio~Logist]

Sure. Just let me know with a pm when you do so.

[moonclamp]

When updating usergroup permissions, they don't save, I get:

Warning: mysql_real_escape_string() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /includes/class_core.php on line 635

I am having exactly the same problem. I am still on 3.5.0 too.

EDIT: I just found your other posts relating to this ... is there any fix yet?

(I'm not really wanting to upgrade my forum just for this feature because it's already hacked to death and would take me forever and a month.)

A customer is providing me wiht a login to his site that has itrader installed so that i can make arrangements to have the code available for premium customers (the code to port itrader feedbacks to SR Classifieds Feedbacks). Otherwise, you can still install this, however, your itrader ratings are seperate than this system unless you have access to that bit of code to convert them.

perhaps ported was the wrong word to use. I made 0 changes to your code, nor distributed it elsewhere, nor is it an add-on. I simply derrived mod_rewrite conditions to add to the vbseo app, which don't even touch your app at all.

I have edited my post on vbseo.

Brian created mod_rewrite rules for your plugin, nothing more. It does not require modifying the code, nor distributing any of your code. They are just mod_rewrite rules.

[stoilis]

Hello, I am evaluating this, but I can't understand step 5 of installation:
"Step 5. Update newly added usergroup permissions and options"

What does it mean? I see no newly created usergroup. Did I do something wrong?

I do see the option admincp -> SR Classifieds and can make a category. I can see the SR Classifieds link at the navbar, but I don't have the permission to access it, even though I am logged as an administrator.

What should I check?

[Hell?]

Usergroup permissions. Those are the "newly added". You have to check each usergroup you have in your board and give appropiate SR Classifieds permissions. Including admins usergroup.

[stoilis]

Oh, I thought that the instructions meant that a new usergroup was created, my bad :)

Thanks for the help.

The feature that I would really like to see is a better connection with the forums. I have a classifieds system right now, but no one uses it, and everyone uses the "Classifieds" forum. Why? Because they know people will see that there is a new post in there and look at it. No way to know if there is a new classified up in the classifieds system unless you check it everyday, which no one does.

My suggestion would be that when a new classified is created, it creates a post in a forum of your choice.

[NSeXcellent]

Just had a thought.. is it possible to have only particular user groups be able to POST ads, but any registered user can view the ads? This would be a great start to charging a small fee to be able to post ads. The way it is currently, you cannot use the subscription service to do this as users would have to subscribe for access just to view the ads. This would never work, IMO.

[993ti]

Awesome job!
If my members start using it i might upgrade to the premium version.
One question though.
If the additional info for the ad is entered and a line goes to the next line like this:
Line 1
Line 2
it shows up like this
Line 1 line 2.
It doesn't stay on the next line.

Any idea how to fix that?
Here's (http://www.twenteracingscene.com/sr_classifieds.php?do=ad&id=1) how it looks like.

[993ti]

Also, when editing an ad, there's nothing in the additional info field.
You have to fill it in again, if you don't the info is lost.

Didn't find more bugs :)

That doesn't exactly solve the problem. There's no way for the everyday user to know there is a new classified in the system. With my forum, it shows up in the new posts search. My users who visit everyday are not going to click on the classifieds section everyday to see if there is something new.

A user could post their store banner and a short description of their "store" which is followed by a complete list of all their items for sale (preferably sorted into categories).

I have a lot of online vendors that would like this functionality.

One other thing, has anyone created a CMPS module for this?

[subnet_rx]

In the premium version, it makes the Classified category show in the forumhome along with the latest ads and such.

I went to your site and tried the Live Demo, I don't see anything on forumhome, how exactly do your users know there is a new classified without clicking the link directly?

This is a great hack and I am considering the premium version but have a few questions.

In the lite version I found 1 bug and want to know if this was addressed yet.

#1) When you create a thread title like this: 20" wheels with tires

And then go to edit the title, only the 20 shows up and nothing after it. The " is causing a problem I believe.

#2) Is there a conditional statement added to keep the "Delete This Ad" link from showing to members that cannot delete their ads?

#3) Does the member's user-group settings have to allow them to be able to delete their own posts and threads for this to work 100%? (like the Extra ThreadFields hack does) I only ask because we do not allow members to delete their own threads and posts.

#4) Is there a time limit for how long the member can edit their ad? If so does it go by the edit post time limit set in vb options?

Thanks in advance.

[Firestar.chkn]

Hi Gio~logist,

Brilliant little hack, thanks! Installed.

I have not read the entire thread, so if this was already answered, please just let me know and I'll start reading from the front (just don't have the time right now).

I have 2 questions (bugs?) for you:
1. The quick bb code buttons (like the ones right above as part of the quickreply box) doesn't work. You can hover over them, and they display the tooltips, but you cannot click them. This is the case in IE, Opera and Firefox.
2. When you edit an existing ad (either your own or if you're a mod), the discription box doesn't autofill with the text entered in previously. This causes you to overwrite everything you did.

I then have a few suggestions, or requests if you want, for new features:
1. It would be nice if you can soft delete an ad, and then undelete it again. My forums works as such that something will get deleted first, then discussed, then undeleted if required, if it's a borderline case.
2. Move the ad to another category.
3. Make the paypal field optional.
4. When giving a comment to a seller/buyer, it would be nice if it automatically filled in the ad id, in stead of you having to type it in. After all, you do click on the ad to comment on a user so the system already knows where you're coming from.

Just a few suggestions. I am not sure if you have these in mind for the full version. Also, when will the full version be available, and do you have any idea about pricing and which extra features this will include? I would certainly be interested, depending on the price you ask.

Thanks again for an excellent hack.

Group,

Something I noticed in the program is that when placing a new ad and if you fill in the title and image path and then select a different category it refreshes the screen and you loose all your text and settings. Not good.

Can we see about fixing this?

Thanks

Doug

[dcpaq2xx]

Note: The price field should not have a $ symbol. Putting a $ symbol will result in your price being 0.
Note: The "End Price" field is only applicable if you are having an auction. Also, the "Price" field will be the your starting price for bids. Leave the "Price" field blank if the starting price is 0. Leave the "End Price" field blank if you don't have an end price in mind.

There is not "End Price" box on the demo, is this a bug or isuse or is there not suppose to be on this page?

So far everything seems to have installed properly. I did the template edits in one of our styles and gave one usergroup permission to use the system.

I tried placing an ad I got this error. The following error seems to appear when I try to upload an image to the ad. If I choose not to upload an image, the ad goes through and can be read. This is what happens when I try to upload an image:

Warning: main(./sr_classifieds/functions_sr_classifieds_upload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /sr_classifieds.php on line 1268

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required './sr_classifieds/functions_sr_classifieds_upload.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /backup/TMP_HOME/corvette/public_html/sr_classifieds.php on line 1268

Please help and thank you.

Installled this yesterday for testing and finding only one bug and one annoyance, when the owner of an ad tried to delete the ad it does nothing (permissions are set to edit in the ACP for that group, even as Admin).

Annoyance; the number of items in the categories does not get updated if an item is moved (by rebuilding the tables via ACP this fixes it).

Other than these it looks like a great hack!

1) That's a java problem. In the sr_classifieds_viewad template make the following edit:
Change this:
<script LANGUAGE=javascript>
To this:
<script LANGUAGE="javascript">

2) That is done to save a query.

Thank you for your kind comments :)

Just make sure you upload the files correctly.

You are very welcome. Thanks for getting back to us here. :)

I'll go through the steps again. I am so very close. It seems to be working but I must have messed up the upload on the image upload section which causes the hack to go bonkers.

UPDATE! I have carefully retraced my steps and it appeared I did not upload one file. I uploaded it and boom goes the dynamite!!!!! It appears it is all working now. :)

I will explore the hack now and PLEASE add me to the notification list of the Premium product you plan on offering. Thank you so much!

That fixed it right up... thanks!

Does anyone have this running on 3.6?

[bandoftheweek]

This may seem like a stupid question, but what is NAVBAR and all othe other mentioned? I can't seem to find those files.

What do you mean by that? The templates are located in admincp >> styles and templates >> style manager >> edit templates.

Is it possible to use other that "GD 2.0"? My system only runs "ImageMagick"

Having a weird bug here, where new ads with images appear to overwrite other images... What's really happening though is that it never stores the uploaded image under a new filename; it always prefixes with 'phpTHSyn2'. Then I wind up with both ads (or more if I keep uploading new ads) pointing to the newest rendition of phpTHSyn2.xxx. If I try a .gif and then .jpg it will differentiate between the two, so I think it's just something in the name generation.

I saw a similar issue in here dealing with a no image ad then updated with one, but this happens on two new ads. Directory permissions are set right, since I can delete the ads and the pic file goes away, and can create it all over again.

[nabeelaejaz]

Ihave installed it successfully, but while updating the usergroup persmission I am getting this error:

Warning: mysql_real_escape_string() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /includes/class_core.php on line 635

Also later i discovered i was running 3.5.0, will it still run on this .. or should i uninstall this ?

[cdoyle]

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but is there a comparison between the lite and premium versions?

[toolblast]

Gio - why aren't you answering my pm's? Now it says your PM inbox is full. You haven't answered my e-mails as well which I sent to your siteresort email. Please respond.

[toolblast]

Update: Still waiting for a reply Gio. It shows in your profile you were online today. Please e-mail or PM me asap, I am not joking around.

[toolblast]

Hi Gio.. check your email please! And email me :)

Nope, I just tried to load it on 3.6 and the XML script bombs out with DB errors

Yep getting the same error here. Any new picture uploaded gets saved with the same file name overwritting the previous one so all ads end up with the same image phpTHSyn2.xxx.

I guess now that he has his premium version he has stopped responding to this forum :(

I'll have to uninstall this one as its unworkable at present.

[Trana]

I guess now that he has his premium version he has stopped responding to this forum :(

That has nothing to do with it, he has stopped supporting the premium owners as well. :tired:

[docvader]

Anyone figure out this image overwriting issue yet? I'd like to get this to work, but I'm having the same problem with new images overwriting all of the previous ones.

[simalert]

I was thinking about buying the premium version of this, but mention of him stopping supporting purchases concerns me. Is this true??

[simalert]

Well I've purchased the premium version of this and got it installed and I am having a problem.

I have contacted him via his website and am hoping to get a response to resolve it, I will confirm on here if that happens or not as others have suggested you don't get replies.

[simalert]

To follow on from my last post, support is extremely limited and shows a lack of interest.

I have now removed the pro version of this script from my site and am currently persuing a refund through Paypal as it's buggy with little or no support. I would accept that from a free script, but from a purchased script it seems a little unfair to take our money and run.

[BlueKnight]

quick question.. is it possible to move or import existing vbulletin categories or threads into sr classifieds? I have a huge F&S section on our board and well I can really have both so I have turned off the F&S and now use classifieds.

This is so difficult that I would say it is not worthwhile to pursue. Try both of them side by side and see if you can get people to list items in the classifieds areas first.

Gio~logist (Giovanni) no longer responds to e-mails, vb.org PM's, siteresort.com PM's (his site), nor any other communication. He was away before and said he was in the hospital, but is now away once again.

If you are having the same issue with mis-communication please PM me so I can see if it is only me or if there are others not able to find gio. Thanks all!

He made some post about how he was back and how now he was over 'stress' and able to get on with stuff he would be doing. Guess what, nothing.............!

He takes your money happily, but when you find the bugs in his scripts, and you will, you get no support and of course no refund.

To me, this person is nothing but a cowboy. I am sorry, but he's taken my money and given me a script that doesn't do what was advertised. When I went for help I got nothing, when I went for a refund I again got nothing and it appears that it's not just me that has problems with him. There are posts on his site asking about customer service and others not happy with him.

I admire people that develop scripts for us and think they do a great job. I would never put down someone that's put in hard work for others, but this person is taking money by selling scripts that don't work and then running. This is totally different and I advise people not to by the pro version of this script or give this person money in any way.

[Quarterbore]

This script has real potential but Gio is just not the person that is capable of handling the responsibility of doing it...

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=126417

It is a real shame and for the price he asks it is still likely a good purchase but buyers had best know that the script has issues that will require recoding. Quite a few customers have functional issues that prevent their use of the script and others, like myself, have had to go through and deleted huge sections of code to prevent problems...

Yet, Gio will disapear for months at a time and never log into his own website to support customers yet he finds the time to log in here and see what is going on...

Buyer beware...

[simalert]

I think to be honest it's an unfinished script at a finished price. Not good value at all.

[arossphoto]

Are you having any success with PayPal? I paid this guy hundreds of dollars for a custom project and now he has disappeared and left me with no support and an incomplete product. I also purchased SR_Classifieds Premium, so I'm embarrassed to say I've given this guy quite a bit of money.

Is there any point complaining to PayPal about something like this? According to their site "PayPal's Buyer Complaint Policy does not apply to virtual or intangible products (like subscriptions and computer programs), services, quasi-cash and all non-tangible, non-physical goods."

Sounds to me like there really isn't much we can do, besides warning others.

[toolblast]

Hi simalert and arossphoto

I paid him $300 for a custom hack, he didn't finish as agreed and dissapeared more than three times, he leaves e-mails once in a while maybe once every 1-2 weeks... saying he's busy, stressed, etc. and that he will finish it. Then I dont hear from him again.

I've posted in almost all his product threads on vb.org. Here is what i've said:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1074052&postcount=10

Would it help if i made a system that would conver all itrader ratings to SR Classified ratings?

That would be nice.

For a 15 year old, it is obvious that managing a business with hundreds of customers, paid customers for large projects, school, and a normal life can be overwhelming at the least.

When it was good, it was great. I'm sure plenty of you can agree with that. However, I'd rather take a rest now and come back even better, than continue things the way they are and jeopardize my reputation forever.

Also, to answer some questions:
1) Can i take a script and have someone improve it? Sure, you just cannot resell any of the scripts.

2) Can i improve the script myself? Resort to answer number 1.

Good luck getting a response. I've been trying to get in touch him for over a month regarding a custom project that I paid for in full, but that he has not finished.

Do yourself a favour and don't do business with this guy, now or in the future!

[powerbook]

Yeah, I also bought the Pro version of Classifieds (and liked it) and so much for support now that he's gone underground. What makes me kinda makes upset is the statement below in his code BUT he's allowed to sell us something and guarantee support and all of a sudden close his page and that's that. All of this isn't fair...

<!-- THE CODE BELOW MAY NOT BE REMOVED OR LEGAL ACTION WILL BE TAKEN -->

I say screw it and remove it anyways! Not like he is around anyways.

[Slave]

It's times like these that I wish Jelsoft would do their own mods. Same sort of thing happened with vBMS (Mail System) .. you pay your money and get no support.

sigh ...

[simalert]

I'm in the UK so some action is harder for me to achieve, but for those of you in the US, why not try legal action against him? Especially as this affects many people, you could file for action as a collective, that should get more of a response.

I would also suggest writing as many reviews as possible on this person and his site. Stick to the truth and there's nothing wrong in doing that, places like ciao are a good place for this. This will make sure nobody else is suckered by this conman.

As for his legal statements about distributing code etc. while I myself don't consider breaking the law, is someone this dishonest going to persue you through court himself? Maybe some people would want to distribute the code or do pretty much whatever with it. He's shafted you...........

As for his reputation, how can he save that? He's a known cheat and he's conned us out of money. If anyone has a home address for this person, please feel free to post it or PM it to me.

Thanks

The website is back up! In fact he's back in business!!

http://www.dopegfx.com/

He appears to have changed his business, but he's still working obviously. This is a complete con!

He's ripped us all off and now moved to a new line of business with the same web address.

I think it's time I made his customers aware of what they are dealing with.

That site had always been up... The one he shut down is here:

For those that are interested, I started a rather poor forum (Man I hate phpBB after using vB) at http://www.eazyforums.com and I have shared some of my fixes there, I have also posted the complete list of the bugs and fixes for the classifieds in the form of a PDF of his archives.

I am about ready to just recode this fng script and we we can start fresh as this is just a frustrating mess... The classifieds are working on my site but my code is realy heavily modified...

Note the lightbox for the images... Pretty cool huh?

[toolblast]

Alright guys

For the many people in this thread wanting a vb CMPS module for the classifieds script... and couldn't get one because Gio is "too busy"...

well... here ya go! I just made one myself seeing as nothing gets done around here ;)

[JimmyN]

can we please add a post reply to the bottom of the ad section?
Also need to customise the style and layout more

[UncoderMom]

Is this supported now? I see someone running it on 3.6.0, anyone on 3.6.2?

[Quarterbore]

I have purchased the rights to this script as well as the premium version. At the moment I am busy updating the premium version but when I have that reworked I will redo the lite version to mirror the other version and it will work with with 3.6.x.

I've only owned this for a few days and there was a lot to do.

[Tralala]

Woohoo, thanks Quarterbore, looking forward to it. I came to this thread today, interested in installing something like this for my forum, but my enthusiasm waned as I read each page...

This new turn of events makes me happy and I am excited to install your updated version.

[simalert]

Will this be a 3.6 only release or will it work on 3.5 as well?

And when you purchased the script, did you also inherrit all the already paid up customers database or is this starting from scratch?

Thanks :)

[Quarterbore]

Right now I am coding in 3.6.x but the code should be compliant with 3.5.x as well and I will test it when it is done. I am supposed to be getting a customer list from Gio and when I get that there will be an upgrade option BUT it will still be a fresh product as the database structure, adtype structure, and many other aspects have changed too much to really make it possible for me to commit to create an update script that will transfer the data over.

Instead, you will be able to leave Sr_Classifieds running on your site alongside the new script until your members can move their ads into the new structure.

This is taking a lot longer then I hoped but I have only owned this script for just under two weeks and there was a lot that really needed to be reworked. When I get the structure working for the advanced version I will me making a lite version which should address the issues in here but I need to do it right the first time. Progress is posted at vbclassified.com but there in no version available quite yet.

I disabled SR_Classifieds as it was too buggy for me, I was wondering about us existing customers with Gio, do we then purchase the script from yourself when complete? I don't want to discredit your work and obviously if you are charging for it that's fair enough, but in that case I still want to persue a refund with Geo as he won't own the script any longer and sold something to me that didn't work and wasn't as advertised.

I would be installing the new script as a new product quite happily and if you are charging for that fair enough, but wanted to know if I should continue to chase Neo or not.

Progress is posted at vbclassified.com but there in no version available quite yet.The one thing missing from Geo's version was a trim option, it would be nice if expired auctions were removed from the database and forum after x amount of days to save on space and make things neater.

Good luck with it :)

[Quarterbore]

There will be a discount for Gio's former customers as part of the terms of the sale. The only way to really fix the issues with the Sr_Classifieds was a major recode.

I have addressed the expired ad issues already in the new version.

Please, if you have questions about the new script or suggestions, post at vBClassified.com!

[amnesia623]

I have tried to contact GIO because I need to get my customer number to reinstall, but no answer.

Also, will you honor previous arrangements with GIO's customers for updates for a year? I bought SR Classifieds in August, now that he has closed shop and your taking the lead will I have to pay for the upgrade before August 07?

Thanks!
