Hi atiuzlet,

[idea 1] I will check what you mean because I don't know this feature of wordpress, but it could be implemented

[idea 2] Someone on the forum also talked about it. it sounds great for me, added to the todo list, but don't expect it soon

[idea 3] Not sure what you want, you could now specify a time between post of the same user, so for example a 30 sec delay or longer, and it will prevent double post. OSClass is not able for the moment to check for the same title and description. If you have some hundreds of ads it will take a little time and resources to check for it, also, what happen if some users has the same product to sell? We should study this issue and decide what to do.

[idea 4] That plugin needs a lot of work, thanks for the idea

[idea 5] We're currently working on a warning page, it's not easy to make it customizable for every user of OSClass, but it will be eventually released. Also thanks for the suggestion about not showing the images of 18+ ads in the "latest listing", that's a brilliant idea.


Thanks for the suggestions

I think, no need to check each ads from all user,
just only enough checking the user's ads

check -> prevent from only upper case title
check -> same title
check -> the first sentence in description

Other suggestion: when publish a new ad will be better Categories field in two step like Regions module or like ebayclassifieds is doing, all categories in one page before fill the other fields. It will be more user friendly instead scroll down in a large list of category and subcategories.

[atiuzlet]

Yes I agree.
Realy good and user friendly solution.

1. step, choose region or location
2. step, chose category (full page with categories)
3. step, fill ads form
4. step, preview ads and choose payment methods (free, featured, or other).

[potoco]

2. step, chose category (full page with categories)

An option like this must be the first because the selected region will be lost when reload page if you put region module as first step.

But if developers choosed an categories module similar to region module (two step), the categories module can be placed in one page with all modules where ever you want.

I like the two options, categories in one page or categories in two step...

Region will not be lost.

We just have to post information between each page.

[potoco]

Region will not be lost.

We just have to post information between each page.

I mean, the selected region, sorry..., If you choose a region, then go to an exclusive categories page (like ebayclassifieds) to choose categories and return to the page where region and other modules are, then you lost the region selected because you are reloading this page again, right?, I think so...

[keny]

No we can paste value with a get

do url will look like that :

osclass.org/select_categorie.php?region=canada

I am looking now if this can be done just by making a pluggin.

[potoco]

No we can paste value with a get

do url will look like that :

osclass.org/select_categorie.php?region=canada

Sorry keny, I don´t understand what you mean, I am not a programmer/developer...

[keny]

No problem just telling you that we can have a page to select region then another to select category or reverse.
