Okay, go into your database and delete the tables vbay_categories and vbay_items

that should fix your problem.

ok excuse my ignorance. I am wondering a few things. I may have missed the answer.

1. Can I make this so only certain groups can use this or after certain amount of posts?
2. Any way to charge people once item sells, or you can charge a small fee to list items?
3. Is it integrated with the itrader ?

thanks

[forumrunt]

soory just subbibg this topic.

[Blaine0002]

None of these are integrated at the moment

The list of things im doing for next release include:
FULL phrase support,
Buy it now feature,
and extended my vbay (tagged auctions, auctions that have been bid on.)

[forumrunt]

oh great, so right now it is working but still working on integrating these things? Do you know about when this will happen?

[Blaine0002]

No clue, i like to go in order though so ill get the stuff that ive said im going to do then look into other additions/
