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

I posted how I think the seller payment details should look on vB.com here: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/forum...65#post4003765

I'd have posted it directly in this thread, but vB.org doesn't support tables. (Though, if I had known how long it would take to get them to work in vB5 on vB.com I wouldn't have bothered.)

That is what I would like to see as well..

Panjo recently switched from operating as its own PCI compliant payment processor to using PayPal as the payment processor. Now, sellers pay PayPal's standard 2.9% + $0.30 for successful transactions + any optional fee that you, the forum owner, charge.

We are removing the 'local pickup' prefix today (10/28/13).

I have been implementing this and have asked lots of questions, so here is how I understand it.
Panjo currently uses PayPal as the payment processor so the only fee the seller pays is the paypal fee's + and fees imposed by the forums. At this time the PayPal fees are immediately taken out and the seller get the price of the sold item minus paypal fee. What is a little hazy is when the forum owners get paid if they are charging a fee. As I understand it Panjo collects this separately and later from the seller to then pay the forum owners BUT they are working to have this all be part of the paypal system so that at the time of the sale the seller and the forum operator gets paid.

100% correct. Panjo is working on implementing "chained payments" right now. in the meantime, Panjo circles back to the seller post sale to collect any forum fees. Once chained payments are in place, Panjo will be able to collect all forum fees at the time of the sale.

Panjo will release support for currencies next week. (the first week of November) All Panjo partners will automatically get the currency update. If you are seeking to use Panjo outside the US or your users primarily transact in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, you can install and configure Panjo and you will get the currency update next week.

[Panjo]

Panjo is pleased to announce the release of support for more currencies in its vBulletin classifieds mod. The Panjo marketplace plugin now (or will shortly) supports: U.S. Dollar, Pound Sterling, Singapore Dollar, Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar, & the Euro.

Since in both of those errors, there is no username, I would guess that you left the file, classifieds.php in your forum root, and a bot may be hitting it. This is just a guess though.
