Well never mind on the first 2 issues.
I guess it was a matter of it propagating the info.
BUT... I still have the last problem. Sold items are not being marked as sold or changing the quantity sold.
And if I can bug you on one other issue and I know its a mod issue but is there a way to overlay a "Sold" watermark once the item sales. Maybe add it to the above issue. And can it be applied to both the ad and the ad.php for the forumhome? Maybe add it to a future relase of Classifieds as a built in option. Thanks
