Trouble Making "For Trade" Ad Type

[creativepart]

I'm working on creating a For Trade ad type and at first it was easy to take uploadproduct.tmpl, modify it and then call it uploadproduct2. Then I realized I had to work with showcat2 and showproduct2, editproduct2 and then finally the language files some too.

But, one thing has stumped me. When a user selects a "Condition rating" choice in my modified uploadproduct2 (which is really uploadproduct.tmpl with the asking price removed) all seems fine. Except that in my modified Showproduct2 (which is also modified to work for Trades) The 'rating' shows up as "male seeking female".

I'd like to correct this, and have so far just removed the rating from the showproduct2.tmpl for the time being.

Where would I find the place to change this so that Showproduct2's 'rating' was like showproduct.tmpl's ratings - i.e. excellent, good, and etc.?

OR.... Has anyone already made a For Trade ad type that they would like to share???

Thanks

Remember there is already template files with the 2 extention since personals exist. I would suggest you create a new one and follow the instructions I outline here
