Vantage vs Classipress
Having spent a considerable time evaluating CP and potential customisations, I've now turned my attention to Vantage as it might be more appropriate for some of the sites we're planning.
Also, Vantage is purportedly built on a new framework which the other AppThemes will be migrated over to, including the next version of CP 3.2
There are few fundamental issues with Vantage that concern me when compared to Classipress, they include:
* Contact Poster via listing page: Vantage = No ; CP = Yes
* Profile photo upload: Vantage = No ; CP = Yes
* Post An Ad/Add Your Business button: Vantage = error message ; CP = Login form, with link to register (much better!)
* Ability for admin to create pre-defined custom taxonomies for listings: Vantage = No ; CP = No
* Filtering of search results using Query Multiple Taxonomies: Vantage = No ; CP = No
