has anyone found a stable classified ad script that will work with vBulletin (without VBPortal)?

I'll be using 4images gallery as my classified ad system like photopost. For the lightbox, I simply changed it to wishlist and the word 'image' was changed to 'item' thoughout the script. This can also be used as a multi-vendor sytem or an online mall. "category" was renamed "storefront."

To allow only the store owner to upload in their storefront, a usergroup has to be created for each so called store. subcategory was changed into departments. So each vendor will have a storefront and departments.

I also found this hack that allows icons next to each category or storefront. Perfect for a company logo or picture.

Now all I need is to add extra tables for price and shipping. My native country doesn't have paypal, so a shopping cart is not needed. Buyers simply contact sellers the old fashioned way, either thru phone or email just like your newspaper ads.

If you want a shopping cart, there's a hack for that for 4images as well. It's in German. But I'm sure an english translation will be out soon.

And btw, it's integrated with Vb3.

Hi there! Thanks for the post. I took a look at your site www.stberlin.com and it is very nicely done!

BTW, I'm from the Philippines too! I didn't know they didn't have paypal.

Please drop me a note when you have the classifieds system up and running, I'd like to see what it looks like.

Take care!

as long as it isn't the one from atmyparty.com or whatever it was.... that one was incomplete and a waste of money since he never completed it as promised and it was not as advertised in the first place

The vbtrader WILL be finished sometime in the very near future. Better later than never.
