With 100+ support pages, its impossible for me to follow the posts her. That's why I opened in my site:
A Thread for Installation Issues (http://www.christeris.com/forumdisplay.php?48-Installation)
A Project for Bug Reports (http://www.christeris.com/project.php?projectid=6)I'll appreciate your understanding on the fact that this is a Free product, so don't expect superior level support, but I'll try my best with the help of Bug Tracker.

Also note that even if you can suggest new features, these features will be include in the upcoming CMPS style version which will be Commercial. No plans exist for adding new features in the Free version. Just bug fixes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chris







1.- How it works
A user posts an Ad. If the user hasn't post a profile before, the system auto creates one for him, populating it with any data there are in his forum profile.
Members who are searching or browsing ads can see his ad. According the adtype (For-sale, Wanted, Auction), they can Buy it or Bid on it. The ad becomes invisible to public.
System PMs seller about the sale. Seller can accept or decline the sale. In case of accept the ad is marking as pending payment. If seller declines the sale, the ad is activating again.
When the payment is done, seller marks it as paid, the ad is removing from the server (with all related photos and attachments), and some data remain for history only.
System PMs buyer that the sale has been finalized, and prompts him to rate and review the seller.
In a time frame that admin has setup, seller and buyer can review each other. During this period reviews are hidden. When the time frame expires, the reviews become visible. Also with the help of a cron job, there is a check which activates reviews, even before the expiration, if both parties have post the review.2.- Frontend Features

Finally..

hope the next release will have an option for the auction (such as penny auction, but it now option, free auction, beginner auction, peak auction, etc etc)

btw thanks alot for the release for v4, installed + nominated :)

[Christos Teriakis]

I don't know why but I can't edit the post above to add upgrading instructions. Currently if you've already 4.8.5 installed then, the only that you have to do is to upload classifieds.php on your site.

Have no idea why the download link does not works. I faced similar problem trying to edit the text. Maybe moderators want to check if I really have got code rights from Mary, or not. This is the only that I can think right now.

As there 2 ways for contacting seller could you please specify where you met this bug? When viewing the Ad's page or when seeing the seller's profile (last tab).

Great to see it is getting supported.

How does one add and remove premium buyers, I dont seem to be able to do this and I have total admin control??

Premium Sellers/Buyers (and thus premium classifieds) are those who belong to usergroup, for which you have set "Listing Priority" 1 (its the last option on microCLASSIFIEDS usergroup permissions.

Ok, thank you. Is this maybe the reason that the uploaded photos are broken links? Also how I can inform the members who have installed the earlier version, that an update is available for download?

Thank you

[mitch84]

[Christos Teriakis]

download link don't work

Don't know what to say. As you can see the screenshots are also broken links.

[Ramsesx]

You should pm a staff member.
B.t.w. what's the difference between this release and the old (deleted) one? Thanks.

[Christos Teriakis]

B.t.w. what's the difference between this release and the old (deleted) one? Thanks.

Has 3-4 bug fixes, plus a replacement of inline blocks (Buy now, Contact Seller etc) with popup (jquery) windows. The blocks were working with the switch Show/Hide. So clicking the link the block appeared, but you had to click it again to close it. Many users were clicking lots of link and the result was ugly. Lots of block one below the other.

[clutchthese]

Still broken... :(

[ForceHSS]

still cant download

[mitch84]

all work fine this morning, now I can download

[Max Paint]

I had some Problems with header and footer of a different style/theme.

You can solve this issue by:

Edit Template microclassifieds_main

Search for:

{vb:raw header}
{vb:raw navbar}

Replace with:

{vb:raw header}
{vb:raw headinclude_bottom}
{vb:raw navbar}

and Footer/Header shows correctly. Perhaps you could include that in the next update?

Thank you. I marked it for next update. I also noticed in the code, that there is no check for loading the css from the web if user has setup it such a way. So, most probably tomorrow I'll release a new update.

Are you continuing getting this error? It comes from the Top Sellers block, but as I seen the query is correct there. Also nobody reported a problem like this, and this function is there from the first release. What's you MySQL version?

Edited: Opsss.... I just seen that you're using MySQLi, right? I've to check it.

Yeah that's the error that comes up when selecting the Classifieds Tab on the navbar. I currently have the micromembers and microclassifieds plugin's disabled in the product manager while waiting for a cure.

[bosken]

Dunno if this is a bug (Now running 4.1.5, same in 4.1.4)

As Admin, full power, Can?t get the profilepicture to show under "Premium Profiles" field, tried jpg, .gif and differnet sizes.
The picure SHOWS normal under the profile.

Also...how do i swap place on the tabs? "What' s new before the Classifieds(MotorBlocket)"

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2011/07/34.jpg

[bosken]

Another bug?

There are two choices when making an ad. New or Used.

Only NEW show up on the list, Used not. It does show INSIDE the product for sale.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2011/07/33.jpg

[bosken]

1. Lines ar partially gone under the products.
2 & 3. Only NEW shows, not Used. (Inside product shows both)

[fwulfers]

Thanks so much with providing a new life for this product!

I installed and currently testing it. It's working great so far and no errors or problems. One thing that's very important for our automotive site is being able to search/filter using the Classified Extra Fields. For example, searching for bodystyle/transmission/color and so on.

I didn't see that in the current version so hopefully that's possible in future or premium/paid-for versions?

[Christos Teriakis]

I'll add it to the commercial version, but maybe to this one too, as its not a new feature but rather an improvment to an existing one.

"MySQLi" should not make a difference. It is more than likely related to their MySQL version which is 5.5.

[bosken]

Another great feature would be to "share" or/and "like" the ads stright to FaceBook...

[bosken]

Another possible bug (running this great addon hard at the moment)...


When sending a PM via "Contact Seller" the date is totally wrong, so the PM ends up last in the inbox.
NOTE: happenes ONLY when you send message via profile contact. IF you send via the AD, the date is correct.

That would be awesome if you can search the Classified Extra Fields. I'll need to wait for this new feature before I can switch from my current classifieds system.

Do you have more info about the commercial version? I checked the link for your website but that doesn't seem to be working right now.

As I wrote, it was a temporary link. I'm setting up a demo installation, so later on today you can find the link here.

Rock on!

I know main thing is to fix bugs, but just posting this idea while in my head :)

Another great feature would be able to see the latest 3-5 or 10 ads on main forum page, for example in a sideblock window!

This already exists in the PRO version and in a very professional way as you can choose many options on what the block will contains. Finally you mark Build forum block and/or CMS widget, and the block is automatically adding in the forum sidebar. For cms the only that you've to do is to add it on the layout.

[fwulfers]

I am not sure if this is missing or it just doesn't exist in the current software. I understand the way to buy an item is for the buyer to click the link and the seller can accept or reject the sale. I imagine not everybody will go through this process or items get sold outside of the site. I couldn't find a way to mark an Active Ad as Sold. The only options are Edit, Hide or Delete.

If you choose Delete, will it still add the item to the statistics of Sales and Total Value?

There is menu option "Mark as Sold" but is only available after the seller accepts a payment.

[bosken]

Something happened when someone posted a new ad. (logged out while posting ad)
Now i got this ad, nowhere to be found to be deleted... Where does the ad go? Can I found it manually somewhere?

EDIT: Found the ads in the SQL database using CPANEL. Deleted it, all ok.

[fwulfers]

A few observations and bugs:

When sending a message, the PM is OK but there is no email notification like I have set for my other PM?s.

Wanted Ads ? Index image shows up in search results but image does not show on the actual Ad page

Got an error when posting one of the ads (same as bosken). No shows an ad entry without any actual data in the What's New listing and not sure how to remove.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=131480&d=1311966524

Random Classifieds listing seems to be broken because of the faulty ad (see above).

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=131481&d=1311966524

Condition doesn?t show when Used

Number of pictures to upload only shows 5, even with these settings in the options: max photos per ad: 10

[bosken]

One more date issue under status, sold items.

Sorry for troubles but there was a problem in the original post and the Administrator, trying to solve it, had acciddently removed the file and the screenshoots. I've re-uploaded them, so you can process to download now.

[duketxboy]

is it exactly the exact same at least style wise? & if we are wanting to just update do we reinstall all files?

[Christos Teriakis]

Yes. This version is the exact Mary's version. I've just corrected some styling issues especially in the sidebar and I've corrected some reported bugs. All others work on the same way. Only in my Pro version I've changed many things (eg moved the profile and all user's options to usercp).

[Christos Teriakis]

[bosken]

Great job! Installed upgrade. Thank you!

[bosken]

1. But can´t get the Premium Pics to show... look on my page. Getting this path for the pics. microclassifieds/photos/thumbs (even tried to clear browsers cache etc.)

2. Is there a way, so when you share the ad on FaceBook the main ad picture shows up?

[Christos Teriakis]

1. But can?t get the Premium Pics to show... look on my page. Getting this path for the pics. microclassifieds/photos/thumbs (even tried to clear browsers cache etc.)

My apologies. I've corrected the condition error (it was premium_photo instead premium_logo), but I forgot to correct the same error name on the link. Download the zip file again (I've updated it), and just import the product-microclassifieds.xml

2. Is there a way, so when you share the ad on FaceBook the main ad picture shows up?
If the Ad has more photos there are arrows below the thumb to choose which you like to show.

[bosken]

Seens that the system does not recognizes 4.9.5a as different of 4.9.5 and tried to add the installation code of 4.9.5. Please try to change it to 4.9.5 (remove a from the end).

Yes because it's trying to add again the field newbid. I was hoping that 4.9.5 will fix it to avoid any confusion in case of upgrade to the PRO version. Then change the version to 4.6.0 and it will works for sure.

You mean, change in the NEWEST downloaded version of the .xml file, 5th row? OR change in a file already uploaded..

I tested with the sale of a product which was listed for 15,000 SKR (Swedish Kronor) and it shows up as $15000 in the Statistics side bar. Unless this mod checks for the current exchange rate when the item was sold, it would be nice to be able to turn off this Total value number.

I dont see anywhere where the facebook etc buttons are for enabling sharing

[fwulfers]

They are all the way at the bottom of the ad. Example: http://saabworld.net/classifieds-6&urlid=2/

I noticed in Firefox, the icons show up vertically but horizontally in Chrome and IE.

[bosken]

But cant still get any pictures to show when I share an ad on Facebook! Tried both firefox and chrome.... Have more then one picture on the ads. Does it work for you fwulfers?

I visited your site, and I have seen that really does not shows the available photos. The only that I can think is that maybe there is a conflist with Facebook connect that you've activated. If you can turn it off for a moment, and check again the Ad.

[fwulfers]

But cant still get any pictures to show when I share an ad on Facebook! Tried both firefox and chrome.... Have more then one picture on the ads. Does it work for you fwulfers?Yes, they show up fine for me when I share on Facebook. I can flip through the ad images and select the one I want as a thumbnail.

But Facebook can be strange like that. For a while when I shared other articles from my site, it didn't show any thumbnails and I had to use a service like bit.ly to make it work.

One thing that's very important for our automotive site is being able to search/filter using the Classified Extra Fields. For example, searching for bodystyle/transmission/color and so on.

I didn't see that in the current version so hopefully that's possible in future or premium/paid-for versions?

I'll add it to the commercial version, but maybe to this one too, as its not a new feature but rather an improvment to an existing one.
Do you have a release date for the commercial (or free) version with this feature to be able to search on Classified Extra Fields? Not trying to be pushy but I want to figure out if I have enough time to wait for this or promote my current Classifieds software and move forward with that.

[Christos Teriakis]

By the end of August. Sorry but first I want to have a 100% (if possible) bugs free release. This dosen't means that Mary's code is buggy. She just had some typos causing this errors, and none of them has to do with security risks.
How many are the extra fields that you want to make searchable. If its just a couple of them I can do these for free even in this version. You don't need to buy the Pro version. Just give me time to do it during weekend.

[indreksi]

Hi!

Is there some widget code for showing latest classifieds in cms, or in forum?

Thanks,

[fwulfers]

Fixing the bugs before new features is always more important. :up:

I currently have 5 dropdown fields and 3 text fields. The dropdown fields are pretty straight-forward as only one selection per field is possible (like bodystyle, transmission etc.)

I also have 3 text fields. Two of these are actually number fields (mileage and model year) and search for a range would be awesome. For example, search for cars between 2003 and 2006 model years or cars between 0 and 30K miles. Pretty much the same as it is currently set up to search for a price range.

Example of vehicle with all extra fields: http://saabworld.net/classifieds-5&urlid=2/

I set up a test forum and imported my DB, css, etc from my online forum. I guess I messed up with some permissions, as I had to set my "Store CSS Stylesheets as Files?" in AdminCP to "NO" in order to get everything working.

So now I am testing the Classified Ads by clicking on the tab in the Nav Bar, and I am getting a "you do not have permission to access this page." But I am logged in as an Administrator. I am assuming it has something to do with my mess up and configuration with the CSS Stylesheet setting. Any ideas if I am right, or if it is something else, and how I might fix so I can continue testing? Thanks.

[fwulfers]

You'll first need to set permissions for each usergroup (including Administrators) to be able to see and use the Classifeds.

Well I want to know that whether the buyer and seller have two different login ?
No. It uses the same login that they've a forum members. Someone can post an Ad as seller but at the same time can buy a product so will be a buyer. That's why there is seperate rating in their profile: "Value as seller" and "Value as Buyer".

Small bug. When you edit an ad which has extra dropdown fields, it doesn't show the original selections but defaults back to the first value in the list for that dropdown.

Also, when you save the changes, I am directed to this page. /classifieds/approveads/ It would be nice to go back to the ad you just edited and see the results.

[dypsisdean]

I'll add my enthusiasm for a needed product and for someone who really has some energy to make this a solid application. Caution - don't burn yourself out like so many developers do. :) We need you.

Small bug, I think - before I blew up my test platform it appeared as if I could not edit an ad to make it a premium ad. I placed a test ad as an Admin, but could not get the premium status to stick when going back in and editing.

Small question - Is it possible to hide the Search Box? And do you know what CSS I need to change for the background within the Search Box?

Test platform is back up and I will do some more testing tonight. Do you wish to have an English speaker alert you and make suggestions for better English when I find something that should be corrected, or would sound better if modified? Of course I can do it privately.

[dypsisdean]

Oops Sorry - the premium edit/change now appears to be working with the new version. But probably my error - or else it allowed the switch after I also changed all photos during a test.

Also, I found the CSS to change the background, so I'll probably keep the search box, but for curiosity, can it be hidden?

One more question, can the premium ad photos in the top bar be made larger? I am trying to make them larger for ads I already created. So maybe with the thumbs, etc settings made larger before the ad is entered, will that make a difference?

[bosken]

Found this today. Possible bug?

When klicking on an ad (blue arrow) and entering the ad, only ONE Premuim Ads show on the upper banner?! All other disappear, when you go back, all there again.

It's not a bug. By entering to an Ad, on the same time you are entering in a specific category. The premium ads are coded such a way to show premium on the active category as it has more sense such a way. When you're going back, there is no active category.

This way you can have many premium ads and be sure that they'll appear at least at their own category.

Chris

[bosken]

Ok! Thanx. Then I know. :D

Please help me figure out how to have premium listings. I can't seem to get it working correctly. nothing displays.

You need to set number "1" on group rights in ACP. Then check the the Premium box in the ad.

Sorry... I've bypassed your post.
1.- I'll check it even if I remember that was working ok, preselecting the current value.
2.- I'll check it. Usally there is a urlid=xx which selects the redirection. Maybe is missing there or has wrong value.

I just installed it, and since I wanted to see what it looked like, I made just a few categories (2, both with permission 0), and when I click on Classifieds on www.pbriot.com, I get this.


"XXXXXX, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation."

I'm an Admin, though :)

I'm reasonably sure that it's something ridiculously simple :)

You have to go to the Usergroup manager in AdminCP and set permissions for each group, including Admins.

[dypsisdean]

Hope you can help. I mentioned this in an earlier post, and it is still not resolved. I must be doing something wrong.

I can't change/edit the "Premium" status of an ad. If I wish to add an existing ad to the premium list, I can't change it. Or if I wish to remove it from the premium list, I can't remove it.

As Admin, I edit the ad and I check or uncheck the Premium Box on the ad, and then click on approve. But nothing happens. The setting does not stick. I have all settings for the Admin user group as "yes."

(And a bug, if you're keeping track. You can not use an apostrophe in the photo captions. It throws a DB error when someone buys.)

[Christos Teriakis]

Hi I may have missed this in the previouse posts is there a way to have the latest ads show as posts in the forum? and is it possible to get a rss feed of the latest ads so they can be displayed on an external site?

Unlike Premium (Certified) Members where you can add/delete them, premium classifieds is an automatice procedure. When a user posts or edits an Ad, the system checks if the user belong to a usergroup which has priority 1. If yes, then mark the Ad as Premium. Removal from premium classifieds is done with the cronjob. In general you can't unmark an Ad from Premium list as long as the user still belongs to a usergroup with priority 1.

I just bought VB yesterday. I'm new to VB, I have a forum using UBB.
I'm very much interested in using this classifieds software on my new upcoming forum.

I have a couple of questions as to what is possible with the software.

This is what I have in mind:
I want to have a classifieds broken down by state. I want someone from Texas to search only in texas. And I want to break it down in regions, such as Dallas.

And lets say I have a car forum and I want to break it down by manufacturer, such as Chevrolet. Then have all the models - corvette, camaro, blazer, ...etc.

So I want someone from DALLAS - TEXAS to be able to list a CHEVROLET - CAMARO.
And I want another member to be able to search for a CHEVY CAMARO in DALLAS TEXAS.

I want this for all 50 states, and certain regions throughout the states.

thanks !!!

As you can see, we have the categories set up as Continents and Countries which is pretty much the same as you would like to do with States.

[fwulfers]

Unfortunatelly not yet. I've stacked in 2 ways. Changing all listing in Ajax tooks me longer than I was expected, and 2nd the very hight tempratures that we got last days making working a real hell.

ChrisThanks for the update Chris. As long as you're confident this will be possible in a future version, I can switch over to this software and won't bug you about this. You're doing an awesome job with answering questions and supporting this mod. :up:

Sure it will be. The funny is that it will be in the Free version and not in the PRO as I've changed many things there. Promise that you'll have it next week.

Unlike Premium (Certified) Members where you can add/delete them, premium classifieds is an automatice procedure. When a user posts or edits an Ad, the system checks if the user belong to a usergroup which has priority 1. If yes, then mark the Ad as Premium. Removal from premium classifieds is done with the cronjob. In general you can't unmark an Ad from Premium list as long as the user still belongs to a usergroup with priority 1.

Chris

First, I want to add my thanks to you for attempting to make this a viable product. And I realize how much effort it is taking you. So thanks a lot.

But I still do not understand the premium ads. What is the purpose of the check box at the bottom of the ad to make it a premium ad if it is only automatic?

But, in addition, I have made the person that posted the ads I wish to make premioum a certified member, and I made sure their usergroup is set at "1," but the ads will still not appear in the premium section.

So it appears that once an ad is posted, the premium status (or lack thereof) can not be changed by editing the ad, or by adding the creator to the certified list, or by changing the usergroup settings - is this correct? In other words, if a person forgets to check the box when creating the ad, there is nothing that can be done to make it a premium. Do I understand this correctly?

Will this work on older versions of VB? Like 4.1.3, 4.1.2?

i discovered a bug with the premium profiles at the bottom of the page. when clicking on a profile you get an invalid data error. looking at the link it appears that it using the wrong id in the link like its using ID instead of USERID in the microclassifieds_profiles table

i had to use phpmyadmin to change the premium settings for the profiles and items after they were posted.

Ah, good to know. I hope I am smart enough to figure out how you did that. I'm assuming you edited some DB tables???

I'm sure Chris will get a fix going for that in his spare time. :) Just kidding Chris. You are doing a fantastic job. I am making, and will be sending you a list of some English phrases, etc. that could be changed to make things more "polished," in appreciation and as a little help for your project.

I understand you are not looking to add new features at this time, but allowing "free" classifieds should be a easy mod to make for the product. that would be amazingly helpful to many members, incl me. Thanks!

ndahiya

I don't understand. I must be missing something. I thought "free" classified was the only way to run this as is. I didn't intend to charge anything, nor did I see how to.

[fwulfers]

When sending a message to a seller or a buyer, the PM is OK but there is no email notification like I have set for my other PM’s.Does anyone else have this same issue? This is kind of important as you'll only know about the message if you actually visit the site. I think many advertisers will want to know as soon as they have a message.

I looked in the database and the only difference I can find is in the pmtext table. Messages send through the Classifieds don't have any values in the touserarray field. Not sure if this is the problem or not.

[Christos Teriakis]

But I still do not understand the premium ads. What is the purpose of the check box at the bottom of the ad to make it a premium ad if it is only automatic?

This checkbox is visible only to those who have permission to Moderate, as a way to help them to promote an Ad which belongs to a user who does not belongs to a usergroup with priority 1. To remove such an from premiums, you need to edit and uncheck this.


But, in addition, I have made the person that posted the ads I wish to make premioum a certified member, and I made sure their usergroup is set at "1," but the ads will still not appear in the premium section.

I'll try to reproduce it.

So it appears that once an ad is posted, the premium status (or lack thereof) can not be changed by editing the ad, or by adding the creator to the certified list, or by changing the usergroup settings - is this correct? In other words, if a person forgets to check the box when creating the ad, there is nothing that can be done to make it a premium. Do I understand this correctly?

As I said before, a user can't see that checkbox. Is visible only to moderators.

I can assume the reason. Mary didn't liked to use vB's datamanager as a way to keep her mods compatible with upcoming version. So in this case just added the message in the database (but in correct way) without to use datamanager, and thus I believe that this is the point. Without to be 100% sure, I believe that adding the message using datamanager the emails will send. I'll try and I'll be back to this soon.

I think that this is a vB bug as it happen to me when I uninstalled the vB Project Tools. Seems that on uninstallation something is messing with the removal of cronjobs. Try to delete from vb_installation/includes/cron/ the file microclassifieds_cron.xml

Chris

[PBRiot]

Thanks for the reply. I went through earlier and removed all of the files that were part of the original upload, and I haven't had the error yet. I uninstalled earlier this morning (around 12 hours ago), and I got the error 5-6 times. If I don't get it again in 48 hours, then I think I'm safe.

Thanks so much for your rapid response, to myself and others, I'd love to support your other works (classifieds just isn't right for me though). Thanks again!

Don't worry, I don't believe that you'll get this error again. Only the fact that you got this error 5-6 times only, means that it was coming from the cronjob, because that file really tried to load the phrase group microclassifieds. I'm wondering why vB does removes the cronjobs when uninstalls a product.

Hi Chris
I can not find what if anything I am doing wrong. When I click to go to classifieds /classifieds.php) I get; vBulletin Message - you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

And I am the administrator!
Any ideas?

Hello Suci,

Even if you're the administrator, you need to assign the right permissions for this product (as for any 3nd party product). Goto admincp-> Usergroups and assign permissions to each usergroup.

Chris

[vb50kgpoo]

Hi Chris
Thank you, but the classifieds are nowhere to be found in ACP Usergroups :(
Everything seemed to upload, import, etc. OK
Any ideas? :confused:

Suci

The file which is related to usergroup permissions is: bitfields_microclassifieds.xml and it must be locating at vb_installation_folder/includes/xml .

Be sure that you haven't uploaded by mistake to microclassifieds/includes
If you're sure that the file is at the correct folder vb_installation_folder/includes/xml, then do a trick as most probably vB engine messed it.
Goto your admincp->Usergroups and enter to any usergroup. It's a fake action as you'll do nothing there.
When you'll see the list of the permissions, keep the page open and connect with your FTP client to your site and delete the fire: vb_installation_folder/includes/xml/bitfields_microclassifieds.xml
Back to your admincp sceen, click cancel and close the the usergroup permissions.
Click again Usergroups and enter again to any usergroup. Most likely you'll see a message "Rebuilding Bitfields" and after it you'll directs you to the usergroup page.
Now upload again the file bitfields_microclassifieds.xml
Follow steps 3 & 4. You'll see again the message "Rebuilding Bitfields" but at this time you'll see the microCLASSIFIEDS permissions. Please note that most likely they'll be a bit before the end.Chris

I would agree. It would make it easier for new users to get started. I increased my font size and changed the color in that "row" of text, but could only do it so much as it ran into the search box text.

by "free" classified means, ads with no price attached to them. more for display and contact without any buy price/bid etc...

Ah, I understand - sorry, I'm suffering from one track mind. :) I've been trying to figure out how to get a cut of sales, like eBay. Or some way to charge a little bit for Premium Ads, or for Store Ads, or some easy way to make a little money for the site.

About searchable extra fields.....

Hello,

Have you already gone live with Classifieds? Most probably I'll change a bit the functionality of the extra fields. Instead to define some extra fields as searchable, I've already added 5 empty fields in the main table, which you can setup exactly as you're doing now with the extra fields. The big difference is on the performance. Much less queries as I don't need to join tables, and thus not server overload. Also it will be easier to add them in listings.

Chris

[fwulfers]

No, not yet. I still need to move some of the existing Classifieds to this one and do some more testing. We also recently installed a site translator and had to fix a few issue with that concerning the Classifieds software.

I have done some database development myself. Less queries and better database design is always good. :)

Chris,

I am also waiting for an update w/ extra fields. is it possible for you to increase the field count to 10 or 15 ? i have a setup where i have more fields, limiting to 5 extra fields might be a problem (or is it the case that these 5 are searchable, along with more extra fields that are non-searchable? then it would be ok).

Yes you can. Goto Usergroup permissions and assign rights for each group
Goto Plugins Manager (Just below the Products Manager) and uncheck microCLASSIFIEDS Tab
In microCLASSIFIEDS General settings
From the Phrase manager, or translating the phrases at the end of product_microclassifieds.xml and then re-importing it.Chris

[Christos Teriakis]

Even if this is a temporary link, I'm very pround of the what I did with this mod. Check the demo at:
http://www.christeris.net/vb4/classifieds.php

Keep in mind that there are 10,000 active ads there for testing how fast is. Try the keyword search by entering eg pio or any word that you're seeing as title (or keywords) on the ads there. Keep your eyes on the main block to check the speed. Finally click the close button to see again the ...original content!!

Clicked the advanced search and enjoy so many filters, but still speedy. Try to change the ordering as you like.

Give a look in the effect of the Random classifieds. Finally click on Get RSS on the right top. Have you even seen so configuranle feeds?

Chris

[fwulfers]

Looking forward to the new versions of this mod. Any information on pricing and availability of the Pro version?

Set expiration time (in days) for ads. A cronjob checks the ads and removes ads that have been expired (also removes related, bookmarks, bids etc).Deleting old ads automatically is essential but it would be nice if there would be an automatic email, letting the member know one of their classifieds is about to expire. And a link to renew that classified with just one click.

In a time frame that admin has setup, seller and buyer can review each other. During this period reviews are hidden. When the time frame expires, the reviews become visible. Also with the help of a cron job, there is a check which activates reviews, even before the expiration, if both parties have post the review.
I tested a classified feedback but somehow was not showing up. I don't really see the need for the delay and it may be confusing if it is not showing up right away.

[remekk]

The same questions from my side. Pro looks really great!

[Christos Teriakis]

The same questions from my side. Pro looks really great!

The good news is that most probably I'll release it for free. I'm in discussion with Lynne here as there is a restriction to do it. Most parts are made as custom work for a Norgerian company which also bought the rights for exclusive use in Scandinavia. I'm willing to release it for free, expecting to have some income for Brand Free (as this version will has copyright noticed), but I need to protect my clients too.

That's the main reason that I haven't released it as commercial product.

Chris

[Jman423]

Any chance there will be a "Best Offer" that can be accepted by the seller without having to setup an auction?

This (Free) version yes, works with 4.0.7. Just avoid to get the PRO as that is needs at least (4.0.8). The reason is that in PRO version the Seller's profile moved to vB user profile page as sepearate tab, something that is supporting from 4.0.8 and then.

Is there any way to charge for certain types of ads? Or to limit the number of active ads a user can post? (or number of photos per ad?)

Currently the only that you can do is the second part of your request. You can limit (by usergroup) the amount of concurrent Ads, and the number of Photos per Ad.

Does it only limit photo attachments or will it also limit images inserted from other websites?

If you can limit the number of ads and number of photos per usergroup then I assume you can use vbulletin's built in usergroup subscription manager to charge certain groups? Does the system work well with secondary usergroups so we don't have to change their primary group?

Is it possible to have a new thread created in a specified forum when a new Classifieds item is posted?

First of all, as I was not clear in my wording. In total photos is not including the main photo. So if you want each ad to has 5 photos in total, then you must setup 4. After this, as you can understand that it's not possible to have an Ad without photo. Even if you set 0 to photos a main photo is always out of any restriction.

How to include photos from other sites? Do you mean by including links in the text? This is something that can't controled. But as you have the ability to approve the ads, you can easily remove any [IMG] tag from the text.

As for the usergroup. By being free doesn't means that is low quality. Yes, it checks all the additional usergroups and as Max photos per Ad, is the highest value that the system will finds, to all usergroups that this user is part of.

Not in the Free version, sorry. But even in the Pro is not currently including, but is on my Todo list.

You can use the Classifieds RSS feed to auto-post in a new thread when a new classified is added. It looks like the RSS feed is only available in the Pro version.

Thanks for the quick replies. It would be amazing if we could limit or control their insertion of external Images or videos that would appear in their ad (controlling img links, etc). It would be too difficult to moderate manually. I am definitely interested in the pro version.

[joeychgo]

For Free (here) or for Paid (at my site), I'll release the PRO version tomorrow.

Where is the pro version? The website link in the first post doesnt work

Is the "5.0.3 Restricted" the same as the Pro Version?

[Christos Teriakis]

Is the "5.0.3 Restricted" the same as the Pro Version?

Yes. There is no PRO version. I'm not good with LITE and PRO versions, as I don't agree with this type of marketing tricks. Those who can count the value of this script, I'm sure that they'll find a way to pay me for my work.

How do you setup the RSS feed pls,is it done automatically

[Christos Teriakis]

How do you setup the RSS feed pls,is it done automatically
You, as Admin, you have nothing to setup. Everything is automatic. The user clicks on Get RSS link, selects what type of feeds he wants to show, and then redirects to that page where he has to copy the link and add it on his site, or on his RSS reader.

[Mariner1]

Great,thanks.One more question pls.Do you need to ad locations manually in admin cp

[Christos Teriakis]

Great,thanks.One more question pls.Do you need to ad locations manually in admin cp

Depends on you. There are many new settings there. eg:

Use Carousel style to show photo gallery
Show the Agree/Disagree voting
..... and one of them is using location droplist or not. If you set it to yes, then you need to add the locations. If you set it to no, then you've to do nothing as the user will see an input text.

So if I got this right, I can NOT use 5.0.3R on my Swedish forum (.se) correct?

How can I?

Will there be more updates for the version I use? 4.9.6?

[Mariner1]

Ok ive made a test post.When i click on the category section where the post is made to look at the ad i see this above the ad

Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in [path]/microclassifieds/datagrid/class/phpmydatagrid.class.php on line 24

I'll check it. As it works in my installation (that's why I was able to get a screenshot from there), most probably comes from the fact that you're not (?) using locations as droplist.

Chris

[Mariner1]

ok ive created a new add using drop down for location,still the same problem

I'll wait report from other members, to see if its a global error, or something wrong with your installation. Maybe are you using MySQLi ?

Please try now. You'll still get the error, but I've setup to get an email with this error. After it post it here. As for your other error is missing the $itemid, so I believe that something is wrong in your installation.

Chris

[Mariner1]

[maineGuy72]

[qpurser]

First of all thanks so much for your hard work. I installed it and it is just perfect.
We only would like to offer the "auction" option on our site and no "for sale".
Could you give me a hint which files I need to change to get the "for sale" options not to show up?
Thanks
Michael

[qpurser]

Thanks for this great mod. Installed it and like it a lot!!
I just would like to change one thing for my site.
I only want to offer the "auction" option.
Could you point me where I have to change this in the .php files.

Thanks
Michael
