Classifieds System for vbulletin

[JimmyN]

Hi everyone, iam looking for someone that can help make a Classifieds system for vbulletin.

It allows users to sell items or trade etc, sort of like ebay but with no fees.

One i had got ideas of was PhotoPost Classifieds PHP vB3 Enhanced
It has all the ideas, but i was thinking of adding a few things onto it.

If you would like to join this project please let me know

If you can help i will offer a reward (will tell you latter)

Iam needing this Classifieds for my forum

some info:
Feedback System. Styled after the familiar eBay, members can leave Positive, Neutral or Negative feedback on another member. Points (which can be set by admin) determine the type of "star" a user can get (there are five stars). Positive are +1, Neutral are 0 and Negative is -1. (completed)

. Bidding. If enabled, users can elect to have their items open for bidding. This auction-style bidding will allow users to bid and incrementally have their bids raised to their max bid rate (eBay style). (completed)

. PayPal payments. A new feature which allows PayPal integration to be enabled, prices for ads (and each option) can be set individually by category. Ads go active after they have been paid for. The Bulk Actions page has been modified to show a "Payment Pending Queue" so that ads awaiting payments can be viewed (or removed). When Classifieds is notified of a payment, an email is sent to the admin with information to verify the payment. (completed)

. Highlighted, Bold and Italic Ads. Permissions are set by usergroup for which groups can use which features. (completed)

. Ad Expiration. The ad expiration has been change to not delete ads automatically, but to "expire" them and remove them from the views. In the Admin panel an "Expired Ads" seciton has been added to the Approve / Bulk Actions page which have links to and allow for the actual deletion of ads. (completed)

. Stats Update. A new stats caching table tracks the number of items sold and a "$ amount" of items sold. (completed)

. Currency Indicator. Changed in Admin Options to allow for other currency indicators other than "$". (completed)

. Zip Code Integration. Although lacking the actual zip code information which can be purchased commercially, the code has been modified to allow a switch to turn on/off this feature. By adding the actual zip code data to your database, you can get the "Distance From You" feature enabled without having to modify PhotoPost Classifieds code. (completed)

You might just want to pay the $99 for the script. I did, and it was worth it.

I would stay away from SR Classifieds. The guy who developed it has stopped supporting any of his scripts, and he has taken money from lots of people, including me, and left them with no support, as well as unfinished and buggy scripts.

There has been lots of discussions about this guy in other parts of these forums.

[JimmyN]

well if thats the case, does someone want to help make a new one?
if so, let me know

Well, I have just purchased rights to Sr_Classifieds and I will be supporting it going forward. I am in the process of recoding the script to it's future name "vbclassified" and it will be supported at vBClassified.com

I will also be supporting the free version that Gio had posted on VBulletin but I have not started the process of recoding that script to use the new name yet. I will work on that after I am prepared to support the paid script owners!

This is good news! Did he provide you with a mailing list of paying customers so you can keep us informed of the progress?

[Quarterbore]

Not yet but I hope to have that soon. Like I said, I will be working on this at vbClassified.com and I think I have already got the script converted from Sr_Classifieds to vBClassified and I have a Bug Tracker system running.

My problem is that my site where I had been using the script (Timeshareforums.com) has been heavily customized to fit my specific need so now I am looking at the standard script and the code is quite a bit different then what mine looks like anymore.

I am fixing as many of the bugs that I remember from Gio's site before he turned off the power but it will address a few of the know bugs I have been able to fix.

So, support for Sr_Classifieds is now available at vBClassified.com but mind you we just finished this deal tonight so I have not had a lot of time to get everything running.
