Yeah my auctions will be added later, and it asks for contact information because it might change when you bid, so when they bid they have to give their newest info.

When your starting a Auctions you have to put contact info in there again it should already be there ,

All you have to do it tag all your own auctions and you can view them in myvbay currently

I would like to make a Dutch translation of all phrases.
But have no idea how to make a translation file.
I translated all phrases in the xml file, if interested I could send them.

Also translated the closedauctions.php to Dutch for the PM mails.

[Blaine0002]

I think what you can do is enable debug mode and enter translations via the phrase manager.

Nice work and thank you very much for sharing! Only suggestion is to add "no shipping" ... some of us sell stuff "locally" only because it's too big/bulky to ship :-)

Thank you.

Needed in translation are all pm and mail posts sent out.. I cant find them to translate.
