Thread: Does classipress suit my needs

Does classipress suit my needs

Hello...

I've been searching for the right theme that will allow me to do some specific tasks on a site I will be building.... I think classipress will do it but I still have a few questions before I buy it. Hope you can help...

My users need to be able to place ads from registered accounts only, no lurkers! Or is there a possibility to have a registered but unpaid account?

Does each ad equal one payment? Or can a customer buy a chunk of ad space to use over an allotted amount of time. Eg. a one off payment for unlimited/certain amount ads over the course of a month...

Can each ad be branded/coloured or have a logo added? And can each customer's dashboard be branded...?

Is there an rss feed of the ads available? Even better, can I have a feed of each ad category?

Finally, I take it that with a bit of css & html knowledge I could potentially make the site look however I like?

Sorry for the 3rd degree... I just want to start from the right place and not be 3 months down the line with a pile of customisations and a load of users and realise I made a mistake...

Thanks in advance

Yes, the default theme requires that customers must register before they can post ads. You can also set the contact form in the ad sidebar to be only accessable to registered users.

Yes, currently each ad must be paid individally as it is posted. There are plans for changes to this in a future release.

Customer branding would involve some customization on your part.

Yes, there are RSS feed options available for the ad listings and categories. You can see these on the ClassiPress Demo . The RSS icons are located at the top right-hand side of the header toolbar, and also found in the category view next to the category name.

Yes this is correct. The theme is not encrypted, so you are free to customize it as you wish.

Hope this info helps :)

Sounds cool... Consider me sold!
