I believe a good item for you guys to create would be a classified program, where members could post stuff for sale, items wanted, etc. This has been something lacking big time for vb. I know there is photopost classifieds but I have used it in the past and it was quite hard to work with. And the only other one I have seen somewhat work with vb was marys classifieds but they are in the modification graveyard on vbulletin.org. Please think about this as I really believe there is a good demand for an item like this.

Thanks!
 
MY money is waiting to purchase this as soon as its available.
I also have the photopost licences... but didnt like the vb intregration.
 
I'd like to see this too, the version of Marys Classifieds thats now dead on VB.org was a decent mod, have it on my site, but does not seem to work correctly on 4.2.0, so would happily pay for a decent DBT mod.
 
It is still on the to do list, just waiting to see if a developer wishes to pick it up as their next mod.

right now im forced to use wordpress with classipress theme from appthemes.com on one of my domain.
here are some important things imho (based on classipress features) :
- ability to add some custom fields (such as vb forms)
- ability to search custom fields (such as classipress), either exact value / ranged (think price search)

Some optional things :
- ability to make guests can post ads.
- ability to make post image attachment thumbnail (if any) to be visible on forum display.

Thanks for posting some suggestions... it always helps us a lot :)

You mention custom fields, can you give me an example of the sort of fields you are thinking about?

For example if i want to make a classified forum about cars, i can go to admincp, and i can add these fields :

- car brand : mazda / mitsubishi / bmw / ferrari / etc, dropdown box, admin defined.
- car year : integer, textbox, min 1900, max 300
- Car color : string, textbox
- Status : new / used, dropdown box, admin-defined.
- transmision : automatic / manual, dropdown box, admin-defined
- price : integer, textbox, min 1000, max none
- other fields.

So that when a user wants to submit an ads, he can describe his car precisely with predefined form which was made by admin.

And on the front-end, user can search on a special form which was made by the plugin :
- find color: red, and
- price min : 1000, max 10000
So user can search specific cars that suit his need.

I hope you get the general idea :)

That's good. Thanks for posting it. We've already been working on a specifications/options system, which will work as a drop down list of options for each specification. All these are currently Admin created, but we might be able to work in a system for users to add in some of their own options, or add options for moderated approval. :)
 
Is someone actually working on this? The most important thing would be a feedback system that is tied into the purchasers/sellers.
 
Yep, I'm working on this currently. I'm actually working my way through the feedback section of the mod at the moment. :)

Exactly what I need, I will buy this addons if it support hierarchical categories or tags. that can be filtered with a drop-menu like the one we see in most Car-dealer sites.
