How Do I Have An Archive?
 

Is it possible for all SOLD items to be moved into a sold category and archived forever?

Thanks

Not without some sort of code modification as it stands now sold ads are expired and deleted after 2 weeks if not renewed.

Is it possible to have sold items always be sorted to the last? So if we leave items that are sold for 7 days, they would always show up at the bottom? Instead of intermixed with unsold items?

Thanks
David

Not that I know of without code alteration again. You can elect to show sold ads for 7 days thats fine but your sorts are these below. Anything else you would need to code in new functionality. Sold ads are pretty well marked when displaying them so its not easy to lose them

+1 for Sold Archive Request
 

When you consider new features for classifieds, please put this on the list. There is a lot of good data in the solds that is lost. With a sold archive we could have stats on things like average time to sell, average sale price, monthly sales volume, highest priced item sold... etc. As well as data on how much a particular brand/model/year has sold in the past.

Seems like archiving the solds would only be a new table sold_products that would have the same fields as products. Then a change to editproduct.php to insert the fields of the item marked sold into the sold_prodcuts table (and remove them if the item is relisted). Then the item would be deleted from the products table after 14 days as is the case now.

Once we have the sold_products table, it opens the possibility for stats and other uses.

Please consider.

feel free to post suggestions in the suggestions forum since that is where we look when it comes to new features. Suggestions in support posts will simply get lost with time.

OK, done.

Not a problem enjoy your day.
