Supersize images for sold items

[Bryan Ex]

Chuck... not sure if this is by design or not but it doesn't seem to make sense to me. When an item has been marked as sold, if a user clicks on "supersize" for the image the "image pending approval" thumb is displayed. I think this should either continue to make the full size image available OR the link for "supersize" should be removed as a variable if the item is sold. Pending approval just doesn't make sense to me.

well it is by design I would think since the image is in a sense no longer approved since it is sold.

I can always revisit how things are handled.

Okay then. I think what I'll do given I don't use the approval process is just make up another thumb that simply says SOLD on it and swap out the image.

[Chuck S]

That would work. Ideally what I can do is if approved=0 in the code we could use the not approved thumb and if approved=2 use a sold image.

[Bryan Ex]

Yes, that would be a solution but I can't say as I understand the root of the issue. Currently when an item is sold all of the thumbs still show the product. It's only when a user tries to view the full sized image that the image pending thumb is displayed. If images are to be removed when an item is sold the thumbs should be as well OR leave all images available until the ad is deleted by the cron. Personally I prefer the second option as it shows what people missed out on by not acting fast enough. The ad has been marked as sold so I don't see any problem showing off what was sold.

Look right in the showfull.php you should see all about approved or not.

[Bryan Ex]

Easy enough. Remove the if and else statement and it works like I feel it should and looks better than my SOLD thumb. Thanks for the help Chuck.
