Feature Enhancements

[gholsie]

Hi guys,

Here are a few items of feedback from my users about the classifieds:

1) Ability to require fields such as City, State, Country.
2) Add custom fields such as Color, Miles Driven, etc. About 5 custom fields is good.
3) Add custom checkbox items. Examples (for our car site) would be: Rebuilt engine, headers, leather seats, racing suspension, etc. Up to 10 would be good.
4) Add a custom introduction message to the top of the main page (easy to use via the admin panel).
5) Integration with vBulletin/vbPortal to make it look like the latest Photopost.
6) Better support for HTML-formatted ads.

By the way, the ability to comment on ads is an awesome addition. Thanks for putting that in!!

I'd love to see this taken one step further... Country, State, City

Have a drop down list for the country, a drop down list for the state and a drop down list or free text for the city.

If a user chooses United Kingdom then the State changes to show UK regions, if a user chooses USA then the State changes to show all of the US states.

This feature would be useful across all of the different products - ReviewPost, PhotoPost and the classifieds.

How about one additional feature to this which would turn it into a real shopping cart. Custom Fields can be selected and can add to the price

I too think this would be a fantastic feature to add. I have already used the extra fields provided to capture contact name, email and drop down for state/prov and country. These are usually standard fields in most classifieds sections and it would be great to see it added here instead of me having to customize and use up my extra fields.

I really needed to capture "model" and "application" but no longer have enough extra fields available because I had to use them to capture contact info.
