Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Adriano Faria Posted March 31, 2017 Author Posted March 31, 2017 Hi there. 1. No. 2. No but you can create your package and create specific categories to it. I mean, a category for "I buy" with a specific package tied to it.
Whiskey Bizness Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 My users claim that they aren't receiving email notifications about anything related to their Classifieds ads but that they are receiving other forum emails. I've checked and the Notification settings in the AdminCP are set to allow them to choose email as an option, and the ability to edit their settings is enabled as well. Email on my community is distributed through SparkPost. Any ideas?

Are you using spark post on your test board? I'm wondering if something in spark post settings is detecting the emails sent by classified app as spam and not delivering it. I've never tried spark post , but I did have a similar issue with mandrill sending a bulk mail once. A word in the email subject of the bulk mail triggered some kind of spam list, and only the first couple batches of email was delivered with the rest getting sent to a black hole. @Ziggs maybe try disabling spark post for a day and let your server directly send the emails and see if they get delivered. I'm my experience, any time I've tried to send mail through a third party service I've had delivery issues with anything that involves selling something. Even topic notifications for topics titled "for sale" or similar have given me problems.
Adriano Faria Posted April 3, 2017 Author Posted April 3, 2017 No, I don't use it. Probably they use some keyword filter. If so, words like "advert" should be blocked and the email won't be sent. If that's the case, take a look to see if this configurable in your setting. If it's not, then you will have to use the translation system to change whatever words is causing the issue.
Cheshir Posted April 3, 2017 Posted April 3, 2017 Now I'm writing a plugin with the functionality you'll never use in the application Classified. In a nutshell: there is a group of users for whom no information is available about the user who posted the ad (not available: name, photo, etc., all information which you could use to identify the author of the announcement) are also available able to offer a price. If the user has purchased access to the VIP group, it is available a button to "Offer your price" but the information about the author remains unavailable, while the advertiser does not accept the offer of the user. For the implementation it is necessary to obtain information: 1. How to eliminate ads from Classifieds site search. 2. How to eliminate ads and ad (answers, questions, reviews, etc.) from the activity feed. 3. How to exclude information about announcements of the activity profile. With the above you can handle, if you disable ContentRouter, but how to do the hook? Should look like the code that allows you to see information about the author of the ad Only to the user who sent the price to the author and if the author of the ad accepted his offer?
Adriano Faria Posted April 3, 2017 Author Posted April 3, 2017 Just now, Cheshir said: but how to do the hook? Sorry, support does not include those kind of requests. You better use the Development Assistance forum for this.
Cheshir Posted April 3, 2017 Posted April 3, 2017 Well, probably there is better to know. Thanks for the help

I've toggled over to Send Grid based on other feedback I've received from some of my forum-hosting colleagues and so far it seems to be sending emails. I think you're right that the Classifieds emails were getting sent into an anti-spam black hole of some sort. h2ojunkie 1

I think you're right that the Classifieds emails were getting sent into an anti-spam black hole of some sort. The word "advert" may be the problem. I had to change the FURL from ...advert/1-test-record to ...item/1-test-record because adblock plus was stopping a lot of features from working.
Adriano Faria Posted April 4, 2017 Author Posted April 4, 2017 Download it again and retry it. Two users bought it and install it last week. Probably some error when downloading.
Dean_ Posted April 4, 2017 Posted April 4, 2017 Would the sidebar block be able to updated so I could pick what packages to show? If I just wanted to show just 'wanted' adverts only for example.

If I just wanted to show just 'wanted' adverts only for example. No. Sidebar is like any other app; you have Feeds, stats, etc. Feel free to post a suggestion in the support board: http://www.sosinvision.com.br/ips4/index.php?/forum/5-suggestions/ If you aren't aware of the credentials, use your name here as user there and your email here as the password there.
h2ojunkie Posted April 8, 2017 Posted April 8, 2017 (edited) I dug around in the bug tracker and found this is a known bug fixed in a future version and applied the fix you listed. http://www.sosinvision.com.br/ips4/index.php?/tracker/classifieds/renewed-adverts-not-renewingshowing-r319/#comment-1469 I've searched this topic and I see some old, similar issues. But those old issues were reported fixed many versions ago. I'm not sure if I have a bug- or just something configured wrong. I have both free and paid packages. - both free and paid packages are allowed to renew. I'm having an issue with renewals on the free adverts (not sure if the same issue is there on paid adverts because this is a new install, and no paid ads have come due for renewal yet). General > Settings > Advert Options > Expired Adverts > Auto renew FREE adverts? (I have this set to OFF) - I don't want free adverts to stay around forever, constantly auto-renewing - so I set this off so the user would have to choose to renew the advert. Free Package Renewal Settings: Allow Renewals? ON Renew for more: 15 days Charge for renewals: OFF This user has a bunch of ads. I just logged in as the user, and tried to renew one of his many expired ads:https://www.thumpertalk.com/profile/325270-jamesm113/content/?type=classifieds_advert This is the ad I tried to renew from the "my renewals" - https://www.thumpertalk.com/classifieds/item/86-asv-clutch-lever-honda-kawasaki-suzuki-yamaha/ It seems to work - however, the ad isn't totally "renewed". The date is updated as if it did renew - however, the ad is still expired and lockedhttps://www.screencast.com/t/y6BBvDWp4https://www.screencast.com/t/b4HBf89A Is this a bug? or do I have something configured wrong?

MICHAEL GREENSTEIN Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) is it possible to set up the classifieds to also have the ability to accept CC or PayPal, etc, for those items, using their own payment processing? A shopping mall so to speak, so private sellers can sell their own items, and vendors can list as well, using their payment processing methods, without payment needing to be processed by the owner of the IPS suite? i have just purchased your software. and downloading and installing now. even if not possible, it looks great, but if it can do these things as well, it would be AMAZING, as IPS does not support multiple ecommerce vendors with their integrated commerce. Being able to let members control their own commerce is key to what I am trying to do. Even if its just a redirect to their own processing page. Edited April 24, 2017 by MICHAEL GREENSTEIN added info

MICHAEL GREENSTEIN Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) ok, so, forgetting about the IPS commerce for a second, if i enable external URL for adverts, it will allow the ability for a link to a sellers own external pre-existing processing page for the item, and other than the seller redirecting to such a processing page, it would leave sellers to work with buyers on their own for sales, such as how craigslist or Facebook marketplace functions. am i correct? Edited April 24, 2017 by MICHAEL GREENSTEIN added info
Adriano Faria Posted April 24, 2017 Author Posted April 24, 2017 Yes. You can post the advert pointing to eBay, for example, thus the whole transaction can be done there. Then the advertiser can aet the advert as completed in the app.
MICHAEL GREENSTEIN Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Beautiful. You are a godsend. Thank you so much for this add-on. Adriano Faria 1
