@Hulu I loved it. It is a feature we needed here. Just as a suggestion: a configuration option to configure the color of the "SOLD" badge. Thanks!

[Tom Irons]

I'll look at it tomorrow.

@Hulu

I found a couple of bugs:

1. For admins/moderators, the option "Mark as sold" is showing in all forums, and not only on the forum where it is enabled.

2. The plugin doesn't check against secondary groups. Users who can participate in our "classifieds" forum are enabled to use that forum by adding them to a secondary group. As your plugin is not checking secondary groups, the "Mark as sold" button is not showing up for them.

Thanks,

Gabriel.

I appreciate the feedback!

1. I added permissions for moderators so that they can do it to all topics inside their forum selection. I forgot to upload the screenshot of it... I'll attach it below. I also forgot those language strings.  
2. I'll add option to check for secondary groups in the next update.

Nice. I've made months ago similar mod too.

@DawPi I made the plugin cause it was suggested to me in a topic, I wasn't trying to remake a plugin that was already made. I had no clue yours even existed.

As somebody who looked for something like this a few months ago, I didn't see it either.

Yeah, I just searched the MP and couldn't find it.

You don't understand. I meant that devs who doesn't know each other have the same or similar ideas. It's nothing wrong. I must that it's very good for the whole community.

 

Good luck @Hulu, you're doing great work lately.

I appreciate the kind words.

I didn't know that a version existed that @DawPi has developed either and I have searched the market place...

To be honest, I find it difficult to discover iPB4 plugins on the Market Place since the new iPB 4.x website went live.

Anyway, I have purchased the Mark as Sold, but I do not see "Members" in the configuration or groups.

When I am signed in as standard regular member I do not see the "Mark as Sold" button.

Is this something you have come across?

That's a bug, I accidentally excluded that group from the list. It will be fixed in the next update.

Thanks!

I was going to PM you but I made a very minor change after you downloaded 1.0.1... so I recommend re-downloading it.  

[Lenny Warren]

Cheers @Hulu, impressive service.

[Gabriel Torres]

@Hulu sounds silly, but make your files available as .zip and not as .rar, as .rar is used by apps (and not plugins), we don't know if we downloaded an app or a plugin when the file is a .rar. Cheers.

[Gabriel Torres]

@Hulu After upgrading to 1.0.1, still not working for secondary groups. Thanks.

.tar is used for apps, I don't think I need to change how I compress the files.

I forgot about that, I'll update it tonight.

[Gabriel Torres]

Ops. My bad. I mixed up everything here... Tar, Rar, Zip LOL

[Tom Irons]

@Gabriel Torres it will now check secondary groups.

This is great, just installed and working well, just wondered if it could be made to work on records in a pages database?

I have created a classifieds database page : http://www.thewatchforum.co.uk/index.php?/classifieds/

Could this work on this?

[Tom Irons]

You can make a new field and have it be a toggle that will tell if it's sold or not. Then display a badge in the listing if it it.
