Was the image upload fixed? If yes I did something wrong.
I set the image upload to 3 but I can find where to upload.
Usergroup does have the right.

I don;t think so, but you could probably install another hack like this one: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=113583 to take care of it for you... Thats what I use, although I haven;t integrated it into vbay screens (I'm the only who posts auctions so far, so hasn't been a priority)

how can I add more group to allowed to post auctions, I only add one

[A|X]

this is still beta version right? i hope the full version you include more payment system like paypal, worldpay, moneybooker, and etc

This looks pretty nice thus far.

I have not been able to find where to upload images from or to specific what formats.
It would be nice to have a edit feature and delete option

I currently have it installed for testing only so members can give me imput about what they feel as well.

Once you have this up and going I plan on using it on my forum.

[dapoling]

Tested it out and it failed...Bummer I really like the idea though, if you do get a working copy I would be interested.

check out the previous posts by me on this page (page 30) on how to get most things working properly

Thank you darho I will give it a try.
Just curious are you still working on this project as to adding the uploading of images, paypal payment links?
I also would be happy to donate to your work once things are up and running.

[dartho]

I've only made the modifications necessary to get it working for me - haven't looked into paypal and the like yet. THIS is a pretty good add-on for uploading images. I guess a paypal link wouldn't be too hard to add in - I'll have a look into it, but it won't be soon. As for donations - it's Blaines work, I'm just a user of it, donate to him!
