Major Additions - vBulletin classifieds mod from Panjo

As of September 2015, the Panjo marketplace mod for vBulletin has been completely rearchitected.

You can learn more about the latest version of the mod on Panjo's vBulletin partner page.

This mod enables you to launch a peer-to-peer community marketplace that is integrated into your vBulletin forum.

Here is how it works:
1) Install the plugin.
2) Customize the categories you want in your marketplace.
3) Contact Chad at Panjo: chad@panjo.com to activate your marketplace.
4) When a seller goes to a new or old subforum dedicated to buying/selling/trading, and clicks on the "post new thread" button, the mod will load a listing creation form.
5) The seller will create a listing. The listing will appear in the marketplace. A synchronized copy of the listing will appear in the appropriate buy/sell/trade subforum.

Is this plugin free?
Yes, this plugin is free.

Can you make money with this plugin?
Yes, you can optionally use this plugin to generate marketplace transaction revenue.

How is it with mobile?
The marketplace loads with layouts that are optimized for high res desktop, tablet, and mobile.

Examples:
Porsche Marketplace <syncs with> Porsche classifieds subforum
BMW Marketplace <syncs with> BMW classifieds subforums
Audi Marketplace <syncs with> Audi classifieds subforums
Belly dancing marketplace <syncs with> Belly dancing classifieds subforums

In your prior post you asked how to delete the mod. Per the suggestion above, don't delete it, just disable it.

In the others plugins like yours, the payment is made by a Paypal plugin that the coder install in the own mod. So when you want buy something, this Paypal plugin (the more secure platform in the world for payments) make exactly what you are saying and is sure the best secure checkout process for this kind of function, also because is the most used from all.

So there are no reason to use your I frame.

All the world payments are made with this Paypal plugin, why we have to use your special Iframe?

In the end, look only a way to collect informations on our buyers and sellers and put for free, tons of panjo banners on our forums.

1) Panjo's marketplace plugin for vBulletin leverages PayPal's chained payments API. This allows a forum owner to optionally set a transaction fee on a user group by user group basis.

2) Panjo's plugin for vBulletin leverages Braintree for the optional collection of listing fees.

3) Panjo's iFrame allows buyers to sort, filter, and search listings in ways that are not possible in thread posts.

4) Panjo's iFrame integrates with Panjo's mobile marketplace iOS app for enthusiasts to optionally allow sellers to manage listings quickly and on the move.

5) Panjo's iFrame allows Panjo to ship frequent updates to the plugin without placing an upgrade burden on the administrator.

6) Panjo provides phone, email, and Skype support for the marketplace. This significantly reduces the burden of service and dispute resolution that increasingly falls on a site administrator. This helps save you time.

You didn't convince us.

I don't speak about the rest that you write...
But this one is really nice:

"Panjo's iFrame allows buyers to sort, filter, and search listings in ways that are not possible in thread posts."



Nice...

But do you really think that we are stupids??

Panjo has released an update to its vBulletin classifieds mod. You can find details on the Panjo blog.

Highlights:
- A "Your Account" link has been added to Marketplace Tools dropdown.
- This new "Your Account" page allows users to connect their PayPal account to become a Panjo Verified Seller, view/edit additional account information, and view Marketplace stats.
- The "Your Listings" page UI has been refreshed to make it easier for users to edit listings, close listings, and mark items as sold.
- Users can close or mark multiple items as sold and tab between items "For Sale" and "Sold.

Hi,

So I'm trying to get Panjo up and running but its telling me it is out of date. I have ensured its upgraded to the latest but still not working.

My only idea is that its not out of date its just doesn't support PL4.

vBulletin is 4.2.2 PL4.

Thanks

Remove the XML only then run the upgrade.php you will need to reinstall the install folder to run the upgrade.php make sure you delete folder after you have ran it. It will reinstall the plugin for you

@ForceHSS - thanks for that suggestion.

I was thinking that the issue might be that VA6DAH hadn't gone to:
vB admin > Panjo Marketplace > Advanced Settings > What version of Panjo do you want to run? > New plugin

That (annoying) setting is in there due to a transition we made in the core architecture of the plugin and the need to be backwards compatible with vB 4.2.2.

Also cant find any translation file for different languages.

Any help would be highly appreciated
