    Lightbulb Add a "Sold Tag" to the Ad listing

    This is part two of my tutorial on adding "SOLD" stamps and icons to your ClassiPress Theme. You can see part one by clicking here.

    In part one I demostrated how you add a "SOLD" stamp to the top of the clasified ad to show your users the item has already been sold. In part two I will show you how to add a "sold tag" after the name of the item when the item appears under the "Just Listed", "Most Popular" and "Random" tabs, as well as when viewing search results and browsing categories.

    This will give all of your users the ability to browse categories and immediately know if an item is still available without having to click on the link to see the entire ad.

    Here is a screenshot of what your posts will look like after the mod is completed. As you can see, the coffee pot has been sold while the alarm clock has not.



    INSTRUCTIONS

    Step 1: The first thing you need to do is download the attached image (sold_tag.gif) to your local computer somewhere you can find it later.

    Step 2: Make a backup copy of "classipress/index.php" and "classipress/loop-ad.php".

    Step 3: Find this code in the classipress/index.php file.

    Code:
    <div class="ad-right">
<h3><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php if (mb_strlen(get_the_title()) >= 75) echo mb_substr(get_the_title(), 0, 75).'...'; else the_title(); ?></a></h3>
 
<div class="price-wrap">
<span class="tag-head">&nbsp;</span><p class="ad-price"><?php if(get_post_meta($post->ID, 'price', true)) cp_get_price_legacy($post->ID); else cp_get_price($post->ID); ?></p>
</div>

    Step 4: Replace the code above with this code and save the file.

    Code:
    <div class="ad-right">
 
<h3><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php if (mb_strlen(get_the_title()) >= 75) echo mb_substr(get_the_title(), 0, 75).'...'; else the_title(); ?></a>
 
<span><?php if (get_post_meta($post->ID, 'cp_ad_sold', true) == 'yes') : ?>
<img src="/wp-content/themes/classipress/images/sold_tag.gif"></span>
<?php endif; ?></h3>
 
<div class="price-wrap">
<span class="tag-head">&nbsp;</span><p class="ad-price"><?php if(get_post_meta($post->ID, 'price', true)) cp_get_price_legacy($post->ID); else cp_get_price($post->ID); ?></p>
</div>

    Step 5: Find this code in the classipress/loop-ad.php file.

    Code:
    <div class="ad-right <?php echo get_option('cp_ad_right_class'); ?>">
 
<h3><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php if (mb_strlen(get_the_title()) >= 75) echo mb_substr(get_the_title(), 0, 75).'...'; else the_title(); ?></a></h3>
 
<div class="price-wrap">
<span class="tag-head">&nbsp;</span><p class="ad-price"><?php if(get_post_meta($post->ID, 'price', true)) cp_get_price_legacy($post->ID); else cp_get_price($post->ID); ?></p>
</div>

    Step 6: Replace the code above with this code and save the file.

    Code:
    <div class="ad-right <?php echo get_option('cp_ad_right_class'); ?>">
 
<h3><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php if (mb_strlen(get_the_title()) >= 75) echo mb_substr(get_the_title(), 0, 75).'...'; else the_title(); ?></a>
 
<span><?php if (get_post_meta($post->ID, 'cp_ad_sold', true) == 'yes') : ?>
<img src="/wp-content/themes/classipress/images/sold_tag.gif"></span>
<?php endif; ?></h3>
 
<div class="price-wrap">
<span class="tag-head">&nbsp;</span><p class="ad-price"><?php if(get_post_meta($post->ID, 'price', true)) cp_get_price_legacy($post->ID); else cp_get_price($post->ID); ?></p>
</div>

    Step 7: Upload the index.php file and the loop-ad.php file to your classipress root folder.

    Step 8: Upload the sold_tag.gif file to "/wp-content/themes/classipress/images/" folder.

    Now, every ad you or your members mark as sold will have the sold tag added to the end of the item name.

    Hope everyone enjoys this...
