hi great hack...

one question, how will the seller be notified if the item was sold and the count down for the days it is not showing... mm any ideas? i can post items but can not close an item.

and y can not use the buy it now option...

mmm

wonder if you release the update...

btw it is a great hack simply and clean...

thank you for taking the time to read this...

Also, is there a way to restrict how many listings a user gets per month? like by usergroups? Possible?

[Blaine0002]

Maybe click install so i know you guys are using my product first

What would really make this phenomenal would be the ability to add/create currencies other than USD.

Other than that, great job on this.

[Blaine0002]

thanks for your suggestions guys, i will take them all into account.

There are 2 missing "]".
But you still get an 404 error if you want to add a new category, still don't fixed that.

Anyone figure out how to get rid of The requested URL /admincp/Vbay.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
