many questions...
1. Can site visitors pick a region/location for ads they see? I don't want them to see everything globally.
2. Can visitors search by location? zip code? zip code radius?
3. Can ads have status flags such as: ACTIVE, SOLD, PENDING, RELISTED? and have these flags displayed next to each ad in the main listing and the ad itself? I'd like my users to be able to update these flags so everyone knows whether an ad is still valid. These status flags should be customizable; so I could call them whatever I want (not necessarily ACTIVE, SOLD, PENDING etc)
4. Could visitors search ads using Status Flags (see #3) as additional filtering criteria? lets say someone wants to see only RELISTED ads, or ACTIVE ads.
5. Can users search ads by Posted date, Expiration Date? Days to ending? Lets say I want to see ads posted in the last 3 days only. Or ads that are expiring in 2 days.
6. How can categories be customized? Your live demo of ClassiPress does not show the ability to edit categories, it looks like they're hard-coded.
7. Can you delete categories? How many categories can you have (limit)
8. Can ad posters be ranked/rated? Like ebay feedback, users should be able to rate each other using Stars and one line comments. Users can only leave feedback if they've exchanged communication (more than 3 message each, this would prevent people from leaving feedback without actually buying anything)
9. Does your software allow users to contact each other without using email? another words if I want to buy something that is listed can I contact the seller via a Form instead of directly emailing him/her?
that is about it for now!
thank you!
