Some good questions, and I'll try and answer them one by one... :D

PS, feel free to post suggestions on our website. If you do one per thread, then it will let us individually track whether we can implement them or not, and if so, then keep you updated. :)

Yes, they can be deleted, and they can be added without issue, though it will take a lot of time to add them again.

For Example: we would only ship to the continental US, US Military locations, Puerto Rico and Mexico. Then our sellers would not be spending a huge amount of time going through countries when creating their listings. It's just a thought :)

A good idea. We have some plans in place to improve the postage system in version 2. I'll add these ideas into that where I can. :)

Can you confirm what you mean by one warning and why you are expecting/wanting two? :)
The system can and should be sending a PM and an email, unless you have disabled one or the other. I've had a report that there might be some issues with it, which I'm looking into. So any information you can provide would help. :)

For auctions, it should be by standard sending such a message out. Are you able to verify that? Has it happened more than once? What settings do you have for your messaging alerts?

So EVERYONE has to ad their screen name to each and every shipping option, Example: Spikes Coral Express FedEx Overnight $65.00 and so one... this not only gets very lengthy in the ad listing when adding several options but there has to be a better way.

If I'm following you correctly, it is already partly possible. A postage option can be created without a user linked to it in the AdminCP which is globally available. We are wanting to improve the postage system to allow for more variety in pricing, etc.

We are planning on a manual for at least the Install and basic running of the mod. The ? idea is a nice one. It might be something we can do.

It only emailed when the time was up/over for the auction. It was set for 1 hour before auction was over. Some people like the option of having 2 warnings (being busy people). Like a 1 day or 1 hour warning and time is up in 15 minutes for instance.

There was no option that I could find for an "outbid" PM or email

We tried that. The problem is that it says "all countries" when doing this. Our sellers are not able to ship to "all countries" and even if they could the pricing would be different to send a $65 US shipping cost to the UK which would be much higher. We'd have a poor seller and angry buyer because the seller would cancel the sale...

This would be fantastic!

Also I'd like to add yet one more thing...
In an effort to making our forum a little more "clean" looking, we realized that what isn't clean about it is all the boxes - module boxes that is. I know they're in use in all forums to organize and make things easily found. But in that effort, too much of any one thing is too much and defeats the original purpose. That being said, I would like to request in your next mod update is a way to turn off the module wrapper for the scrolling "featured" boxes that get located around the site. Even if it can be done in the admin settings would be good.) In the meantime, is there a way to edit this in styles possibly?

Hi everyone,

This week we have a bug fix update for DragonByte Classifieds (v1.1.11) fixing a few issues that have come up in recent weeks. We also were able to add a little change in to some styling.

Thanks again to everyone who keeps us up to date with new ideas and any issues. Version 2 is progressing and we'll keep you posted on it's development.

The full changelog for v1.1.11 can be found below.

Remember, we have installed the latest Beta of Classifieds here on DBTech. We have created some 'fake' items and have left PayPal in Sandbox mode so that no real money changes hands allowing anyone to test how the system works. We look forward to your feedback. Go here for the latest listings: View Listings - DragonByte Tech | vBulletin Mods & Addons.

To create a PayPal Sandbox account you need to head over to this page: https://developer.paypal.com/webapps...tions/accounts. Once you login with your regular PayPal account you can then create a sandbox testing account to use to 'purchase' the items on our Classifieds.

You can purchase DragonByte Classifieds here.

Bug Fixes And Issue Fixes:
Fixed: Incorrect buyer/seller phrases on Feedback listing page
Fixed: Feedback page now correctly displays the beneficiary of the feedback
Fixed: Featured and Classifieds boxes on the forumdisplay page not displaying the correct listings (missing listings)
Fixed: Randomization of Classifieds, Featured and Seller's Listings boxes now correctly is randomized

Changes To Existing Features:
Changed: The My Listings and My Classifieds page now have bold text headings to divide the sections
Changed: The term 'Unsold' heading is now changed to 'Expired' on the My Listings page

Yesterday we installed the Lite Version - but we are also very interested in the Pro. But I have some questions.

At first about the fees:

Yes, there is an option to set fees, but it does not work at our forum. How and when will the merchant be notified about the fees and to have the possibility to pay for it? In all our test-sellings, there wer alway no fees. What did I maybe wrong?

And then I have a question, if it is also possible for other user to ask questions under the normal listing of one product. Maybe a normal Forum discussion under the detail site of one product.

And question number three is: Is it possible to make different fees depending on the condition of a product that a user submits? Maybe more if it is a "new" product...

Having a issue with the page load when I have the Classifieds showing at the top of thread view.

The page loads and then teh classifieds load and refeshes/reloads the page to so that it is longer. When you are reading or typing a reply it is very annoying.

Can this be fixed so that the classifieds area stays the one size and then the ads and text are loaded into the space?

We've got a fix out tonight for some of the Insertion Fees. Regarding the other two questions, a commenting system is being added in version 2 (done in the Alpha versions already) and fees based on conditions is on the board to do as well. :)

There is no AJAX loading of Classifieds listings when using the Ads, just a cycling through of existing images loaded with the page itself. Can you point me to an example of this issue? I'll see if I can find out what's causing it. :)
