1. This version is 80% custom work for a client in Norway, who gots the permissions for exclusive use in Scandidavia (Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland). As a result of this legal agreement that I signed, installation of Mary's Classifieds is prohibited in domains (sites):

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

With 100+ support pages, its impossible for me to follow the posts her. That's why I opened in my site:

1. A Thread for Installation Issues
2. A Project for Bug Reports

I'll appreciate your understanding on the fact that this is a Free product, so don't expect superior level support, but I'll try my best with the help of Bug Tracker.

Also note that even if you can suggest new features, these features will be include in the upcoming CMPS style version which will be Commercial. No plans exist for adding new features in the Free version. Just bug fixes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

NEW VERSION 6.6.0

There are many new features to this version to list them now. Spend sometime to explore the new mod and you'll find them. The only that I want to mention is that the SEO rules that I've, are normal rules and not vbSeo rules.



How to upgrade:

1. Download the latest version 6.6.0. Please be aware that the regional restriction on use (Scandinavia) is still valid.
2. Upload *** ALL *** the files in your forum directory.
3. Import the product-microclassifieds.xml from your admincp, choosing overwrite.
4. Walk throught the General settinsg and usergroup permissions, as there are many new settings.

Thank you
Chris







1.- How it works

• A user posts an Ad. If the user hasn't post a profile before, the system auto creates one for him, populating it with any data there are in his forum profile.
• Members who are searching or browsing ads can see his ad. According the adtype (For-sale, Wanted, Auction), they can Buy it or Bid on it. The ad becomes invisible to public.
• System PMs seller about the sale. Seller can accept or decline the sale. In case of accept the ad is marking as pending payment. If seller declines the sale, the ad is activating again.
• When the payment is done, seller marks it as paid, the ad is removing from the server (with all related photos and attachments), and some data remain for history only.
• System PMs buyer that the sale has been finalized, and prompts him to rate and review the seller.
• In a time frame that admin has setup, seller and buyer can review each other. During this period reviews are hidden. When the time frame expires, the reviews become visible. Also with the help of a cron job, there is a check which activates reviews, even before the expiration, if both parties have post the review.

Visiting your site I realized that you're using older version or you messed the upgrade. In view ad page there are no more inline hide/show blocks but modal popup windows.

1. Empty profileid. In your case as I can see, there is profileid=2
2. If profile does not exists in the database. Please check with phpMyAdmin the table microclassifieds_profiles if there is a profile with userid=2

The core of these boards is full wood, (as used on the highest priced boards of some of our competitors), giving fast flex response, low vibration, outstanding strength and remarkably low weight. On the water the NBL features all the properties you’ve now come to expect from a Nobile board; early planning, fast upwind, unbelievable comfort and fantastic durability."
