What I was hoping for as well, it the ability to select more than one method of payment.

If the item were to be sent by post, then Paypal or cheque would be acceptable. If it was a collection in person, then cash would be acceptable.


Any help on the above bugs of mine please Gentlemen~? (Ladies?).

Auction is still on my test site. When the buy it now is used - the buyer receives an email to say that that he was the highest bidder but did not reach the reserve price.

What I would love to see included in the emails is the final price that the auction went for.

I would also like to see a record of closed auctions as I can't find any at present. That combined with no end information after an auction has ended, leaves me with no way of knowing how much the aution went for.

Can you fix these Please?

I forgot to add that I have sorted the Pics problem out.

It didn't work via images/vbay/paypal.gif

so i removed the vbay out of that and all other ones and that side of it works perfectly.

(Yes - I did upload them correctly).


EDIT: --------

I have sorted out the pics by doing the above to the .js links in the templates and that works a treat too.

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


I have noticed that there is no facility for entering a "Name" on registration - can that be added too Blaine? thanks.

I can't for the life of me, find where that post is that explains what and where to adjust - to allow smaller bid increments.

Postage: ?4.99 (not show as ?4).
Just an idea on the decimal points problem. I haven't installed this mod yet, but it sounds like the SQL Table that is created for the mod is not storing the numbers as Float data types. It's probably Integer type (Which gets rounded down to the nearest whole number). Fixing that problem may be as simple as changing the data type on the column in the Table that stores the values from Integer to Decimal or Float.

Hello,

Ive tried this hack, but i have to say that like it is right now, it is totally unusable for a working classifieds forum.
It lacks a bunch of things (like for example the possiblity to add photos after have posted the auction) etc.
Is there a new version more completed and usable coming soon? thanks

I have removed the "Auction & Buy It Now" option and have no more problems with that respect.

What I think, in total - that would set this off is:

1. Personalised PM, maybe with the use of "$Hello $user_username". (both Buyer & Seller)
2. The PM to the seller would include the username of the buyer and the end price of auction.
3. The ability for the seller - Up until 24 hours or unless a bid has been placed - to be able to edit his listing.
4. A facility for the high (maybe all) bidder/s to be shown on the listing after the listing has ended. (both Auction and Buy It Now formats).
5. The main one is the ability to to be able to bid what they like (0.01 or 0.10 pence (Cents) etc.
6. The ability to view the listing/s after the auction is closed.

Mr Blaine - I think you have done a fantastic job at what you have achieved so far and I know it may have been a rollercoster ride for you. Not once have you given up on the people, even though you put this out as a freebie.

I really hope that you are able to and have the time to perhaps do some, if not all of the extras that I have added above. I am Unable to put this "Live" on my forum until there is a little more improvement on it.

AND, I tell you something... There is an above average donation waiting to make it's way to you too.

Best Wishes,

Welshy2008.

I did a listing too, of the things that are missing (a bunch to put it on a live forum like said welshy) but it was 1 month ago,

The most important thing missing are:

1) the fact that once you chose to don't upload photos when you post your classifieds, than there is no way if you changed your mind, to upload photos (the number you want)

2) there is "paypal" "cash" and "other" in payment option. It would be better to have directly the option "paycheck" and "bank transfer" + other like usual. and it would be more normal to have the possibility to chose that a buyer can pay via paypal or cash or paycheck or bank transfer or other if necessary, because give to a buyer the possibility to pay only via one method is a bit restrictive, and a seller might want to give different payment options at the same time, and let buyer chose how he pays then

3) rethink the look of the classifieds one they are online (not very "pro")

4) same thing as 1,2,3,4,6 of Welshy2008

5) a thumbnail photo front of each classifieds, that appears in classifieds listings in each category

6) in classifieds listing, 1/2 clkassified as more clear background

7) all interesting options that can be taken from ebay (without taking those which don't have real utility)

And if there is a usable realease, i'll make a donation too.
