Major Additions - Classifieds

Removed by the Author because:

• For 7 mods, there are 1905 downloads but only 577 clicked installed.
• For these 577 installs I got 4 donations for Brand Free. Make a simple search on the net using the product name and you'll find that 50% have illegally removed my copyright.
• I found 3 vb.org style sites, offering for download my mods but after PAID SUBSCRIPTION, or DONATION

After all, I'll stop be the idiot on this market.

2. CMOD the following directories to 777
   1. /photos (inside classifieds directory)
   2. /tmp (inside classifieds/photos directory)
   3. /thumbs (inside classifieds/photos directory)
3. For security reasons backup your database AND turn your board off
4. Check at your AdminCP->vBulletin Options->Plugin/Hook System that Plugin system is enabled.
5. From your AdminCP->Plugin System->Manage Products choose Add/Import Product and import the product: product_classifieds.xml
6. If you want to add a link to your nav bar then you must edit the NAVBAR template:
   Search For:
   Code:
   <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="calendar.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>
   Add Below:
   Code:
   <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="classifieds.php$session[sessionurl_q]">Classifieds</a></td>
   ....or use any other word you want
7. By default none usergroup has permissions to use vbfclassifieds, so you need to give permissions to any group. Goto AdminCP->Usergroups->Usergroup Manager and edit any usergroup you like to give permissions.
8. If you've installed vbSEO, Login into vbSEO Control Panel, click "Custom Rewrite Rules", insert rewrite rules (attached in vbseo-rules.txt to not lose formatting) and save settings.

Got this working today after changing the usergroup permission to upload photo's.
Great mod and perfect for my sites needs..thanks

Just a quick question though, how can I set it so the ads can only be edited or deleted by the poster, obviously as admin i want total control, but dont want one poster to be able to edit another persons ads, if you see what i mean ?

[RedFoxy]

mmm I've installed it, but i've a lot (realy a larg amount) of feedback with itrader, there is a way to import it or to use itrader with classified?

[powerful_rogue]

I must have had an older version which I installed then uninstalled.

When I try to install this version I get the following error: -

Database error in vBulletin 3.8.1:

Invalid SQL:
ALTER TABLE usergroup ADD classifieds INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL;

MySQL Error : Duplicate column name 'classifieds'
Error Number : 1060

1. Set usergroup permissions to upload photos (number of photos). Please note that "0" dosen't means unlimited, but exactly 0 (zero), user can't upload photos.
2. Uploading images with classifieds is totally independed on how you've setup vB to upload/store images (eg on webspace or in database). All uploading images with classifieds are uploading at: classifieds/photos and classifieds/photos/thumbs for thumbnail.
3. Double check that directories below first of all exist, and second that they have writting permissions (777):
   1. classifieds/photos
   2. classifieds/photos/thumbs
   3. classifieds/photos/tmp

If everything of above are set correctly then you must be able to upload images. BUT!!! there is a big but.... unfortunatelly I've seen sites having soooo manyyyy mods. That's a sure way to make your vB installation upside-down. Latelly I visited a site to check this problem (not image upload) on my own. Its true that when I tried with admin's details it was impossible to upload. Then I registered as normal user to that site. Guess what I was able to upload. After this I asked the site owner to upgrade my account giving it admin rights. Voila, I was able to upload again. So the fact is that any user, belonging to any usergroup was able to upload except the user "xxxxx". Sorry but after it, you can't say that the error comes from the code. For sure is coming from something wrong in your installation.

Thank you
Mary

Check server permissions set photo and thumbs to cmo 777. Checked user group permissions even added a higher limit for myself but still no luck.

Just downloaded and re-loaded all scripts in case I was missing something... still not working.

I'm open for suggestions on where to look next.

OK, solved my problem with the photo uploads... went and edited the "Secondary" User Group permissions to allow photos and now it works!

So if you are still having problems uploading photos to the classified, check what secondary user groups you have and change the photo upload limit to something greater than zero.

Thanks Mary for a great mod!

Great!!! it now works ... thanks for supporting this mod.

I feel this is a minor bug. Shouldnt either 1) only check perms vs primary group OR 2) check the group with the max privs OR 3) provide the group name that does not have the perms to post pics.

[tteal]

Can't upload pics no matter what I do. I've tried editing secondary usergroups, etc

[Keith_]
