Some inconsistencies

If you post a comment as a 3rd party (who doesn't own the advertised item), the script replies "you have successfully edited your ad". That's obviously not quite right.

If an sale is closed or the auction ends in a currency different from the main currency, the math doesn't quite add up. Say on the front page is says "Value of items sold £0", if a sale of a 200USD ($) item ends, the front page will now read, "Value of items sold £200". There needs to be some basic ability for the system to update it's conversion rates for the currencies added.

I haven't had a chance to rereplicate this one, but I'm pretty sure this is the case. If you place an initial bid for something the auction software reports that the bid has been made in the primary site currency rather than the posted alternate currency in the sale. A bit confusing really.

If I look at our code in comments.php for Classifieds 2.5 it displays on the forward the message string success which in my default install is this message which would be accurate for the action performed.

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

There software only reports what your global currency is. There is no exchange rate calculator or such. I can not say 200USD is not the other. The currency selector is only a designator to assign a different payment so that the user can be paid in there currency. The amount though in the stats is going to appear in your currency format.

Lines 571-574 of english.php:

['pp_lang']['success'] is defined twice, obviously the second definition stands.. which is why I get the error.

As I mentioned in the other post I downloaded PPC today from the members area for the first time ever (only just bought it), it looks like the code is not up to date.
