    Whats My Next Tutorial, You Choose.

    In lite of me becoming a new Mod here on the site, i thought we would all celebrate by you giving me ideas on whats tutorials you would like to see. Throw all your ideas at me and lets see what we come up with. The tutorial does not have to relate to just classipress but ill take wordpress ideas as well.

    To be honest, knowing what's coming up with the 3.0 release is there a need, right now, for another tut?
    Not saying your work isn't appreciated, just meaning that you might waste your time if the tut is redundant in a few weeks.

    I did say it didnt have to be classipress based for this reason.

    I have a couple ideas for some Tuts:

    Designing a functional footer
    Anything CSS related
    Design advanced search drop-down using Wp Custom Search (plug-in)

    Hmm what kinda footer would you like to see? I do think that CSS would be great for some tut topics.

    Tayler,

    Thanks for opening this thread. As we talked about yesterday, I'd like to see a tut on how I can create that template page for wp-register and wp-login that would mask the "wp" from those forms.

    Also, here's some other ideas for tutorials that I think could be helpful for CP users:

    1. Creating a guided browse to enhance the search functionality. How do we build an unordered list <ul> of links that connect to the classifieds in our database and will help our users find categories of classifieds on our site? See the example image below.

      [/*:3m5ggi4c]
    2. Creating a better way to search/display member profiles.[/*:3m5ggi4c]
    3. Better integration with Paypal so members don't have to leave the page to submit a payment. Once the member clicks the submit button on the post-form.php (or post-page) they're redirected to a payment page within the CP theme.[/*:3m5ggi4c]

      Any of those would be awesome to see.
