I just wanted to say it'd be pretty cool if your classifieds mod could also integrate with a points column from the user table.

Could be beneficial towards customers earning bonus points / rewards / coupons / gift cards

etc all that stuff.
 
Hey, your best bet is to suggest this in the classifieds forum so it gets marked as a suggestion in our tracker :)
 
Good suggestion that no other classifieds ever had example: in my area there are many "iwanna" papers and booklets in rural areas, or radio call in centers that broadcast over the air what they have in 30 secs and a phone number, they get through about 30-40 people on a swap meet radio show.

If you have a classified ads that a person can either list a car for sale, puppies, house, or services, local theme events, barn dance or church cook off.
Allow the site operator to limit any all posts to a default time of 1,2,3 or 4 weeks.
Reason, if the member does not sell the car, the ad will deactivate, or if a post is bad it will go away anyway. those could be public free posting so the site owner can establish a free large visitor user base. IF the user did not sell the item, they login in and reactivate the listing for another 1,2,3,or4 weeks default.
1. It keeps people active on the site for its uses
2. It self cleans up
3. the person does not create a duplicate listed as active, while the old one is stored as inactive.
4. bottom level users are (site user limits 1-5 posting max limit or no limit) once listing get killed they have room to put a new listing.
5. the site in a way self cleans, and self limits from potential spammers if they get past the safe gaurds.

HOW EVER, allow the site owner to have a premium member slots that can purchase quarterly, semi and annual listing slots. If the public freely uses it, the businesses will pay to be seen rather than reset there post weekly or bi weekly.

third, by category, allow (add on package) banner side footer slots to be sold via categories.

If a car dealer can choose the ford area or a higher folder listing as automobiles, the higher the folder the higher the ad price to be seen at that level into all child folder classified listings.

Not sure how far you have coded into it? but if this gives away to much ideas, then kill this post and tell me where/how to post a bunch more coding ideas:D

I like stuff coded to work and be as flexible with room for expansion and add on mod stuff.

Anyway, I knew this site was here, tonight was the first night I had no other place to be so I am really thinking of converting a bunch of my stuff to PHP :eek: had my head stuck in ASP the last 8-10 years :RpS_rolleyes:
