Got it, thanks @Marc Stridgen, please close this ticket for me. Cheers!

@Charles Thanks for your reply. So on Invision side, it would try to send out the 150,000 e-mails at one go?

Just wanted to confirm, appreciate your reply.

Hello all,

I have 2 IPS sites, one with 15,000 members and another with 150,000 members. I would like to use the Bulk Mail feature for the first time to send out an e-mail blast to update the members on some changes.

I don't see options for X mail / minute, and i presume if i were to click "SEND", this would crash my server due to the sheer number of members.

Does Invision throttle the sending of emails to something that is acceptable to the server or are there any settings that i can change/update?

I prefer not to use an external/paid mail server if possible i.e. Mailchimp, etc

Thanks in advance!

Hi @InvisionHQ

 

hope you're fine !

If you could add on next update the option "Parent category show also subcategory adverts" that would be great 🙂

Thank you !

I 2nd this! Would be a great function to have! As well as filtering by fields/options! Thanks @InvisionHQ!

I see compatibility for Invision 4.6.x has been added, fantastic! Thanks to the dev for the excellent job!

Classifieds 2.3.1 has been approved.

@InvisionHQ Just saw it, perfect, thanks!

Do you reckon it's better to update to Classifieds 2.3.1 first before upgrading Invision to 4.6.x OR update Invision first before updating Classifieds?

Thank you!

Hey @Michael.J, needless to say, fantastic app and this is one we cannot live without! Any plans to update the app to be compatible with 4.6.x?

Thank you so much!

Do you have an idae about when 3.0 might be released ? i really have no use for commerce so it maker this app king of expensive if i have to buy commerce just to use it.

I have no use for IP.Commerce as well but went ahead and bought this app with IP.Commerce anyway. When 3.0 launches i guess i will just not renew IP.Commerce.

2.3.1 uploaded now:

Thank you @InvisionHQ! Just waiting on your update so we can upgrade our entire Invision site! Cheers!

Yes. New version is IPS 4.6 only, as stated:

 

Perfect, thank you for the prompt reply!

Will wait for some other applications to be updated to be compatible with 4.6 before making the upgrade. Appreciate all the hard work!

Hi @Adriano Faria,

Am using Links Directory 5.5.5 now on IPS 4.5.x.

To upgrade, i should first upgrade to IPS 4.6 before upgrading your links directory to 5.6.01, would that be correct?

Thanks!

It works but 2.3.0 release with some 4.6 fixes is awaiting review in the marketplace.

Hello @InvisionHQ, should we wait for your 2.3.0 release before we upgrade our IPS board to 4.6?

Your advice, please.

Thank you & great work thus far!

@InvisionHQ

Also, there is another typo here:

It should be:

"You need to be logged in to see additional information and be able to contact the advertiser!"

Or is there any way to hide this notice completely? I don't really require it on my board.

Thanks!

Hello @InvisionHQ,

Been using Classifieds now for a few days, what an awesome piece of work, thank you for this.

Have a couple of questions/bugs that i would like to check in with you on:

1) In the Classifieds Menu Manager, there is an error in the spelling of "Wish List". Is there anyway that i can change the names of "Classifieds", "Wishlists", "My Adverts", "My Offers", etc?

2) Assuming i do not want to use your built in menu manager, i could create another tab to External Link by linking it to www.url.com/classifieds, but how do i do the external link for "My Adverts"? Currently the URL is: https://www.url.com/profile/146336-username/content/?type=classifieds_advert, is there anyway to have a link like www.url.com/profile/myadverts so that i can hard link it?

3) I have allowed guests to post ads without the requirement of registering for an account, however, when guests submit an ad, they face the error:

The ad however is LIVE and showing within Classifieds.

4) On the contrary, if i DO NOT allow guests to post ads, the "Submit Advert" button is still showing for guests, and they go through the whole process and face the same error as point 3), however, their ad will NOT be showing in Classifieds. How do i hide the "Submit Advert" button from guests?

5) Is there anyway to NOT show the countdown timer to expiry on the advert feed? Or is there anyway to have the ad permanently there and NOT expire?

6) When i click on "Location" to type in the address, it always defaults to "United Kingdom", is there a way to change this to follow the current setting in Invision system? Otherwise every ad there will be an extra step involved which is changing the country.

7) Another spelling error i noticed:

There is an extra "n" in "additional".

Thanks for the hard work, fantastic piece of add-on and hoping we can resolve the above issues!

Had to manually go into Commerce and find the Classifieds app but it works now, thanks all!

Ah could it not be showing up because i do not have Commerce installed yet?

I've gone through all the searches but am unable to locate this add-on.

I've also directly clicked on the link provided by @Dean_ but it shows an error page.

@Dean_ Thanks for the link Dean, but if you click on it, it shows an error page.

@InvisionHQ Am trying to purchase this add-on for a site of mine, unable to find it in the marketplace. Did it get remove? Please advise, thank you!

The whole IPB package (including IP.Commerce) is around $105US / 6mo..  Adding all of my software together I am probably around $350-400 a year.  This whole IPB platform is the best deal I've seen for what you get and less time needed to manage it.

Classifieds was one of the best add-ons for my site, hands down.  InvisionHQ is a great programmer. 

Mike

Hi @Mike Gholson, don't get us wrong, no one is denying the value of the IPB platform and the great work @InvisionHQ does. I use IPB exclusively on my sites after trying vBulletin, SMF, etc.

I'm happy paying for Commerce *IF* it is a requirement. I think what we're getting at is @InvisionHQ has in his roadmap a version of Classifieds that *does not* require Commerce, and many of us are running Classifieds without the internal transaction enabled on IPB/Commerce, so this would be a welcome addition.

Less things installed, less things to go wrong right? Either way, happy to see this add-on progressing on! Cheers!

Hi,

I am very interested in this app but i have absolutely no use for commerce, do you have a new timeline for the roadmap ?

Thanks.

I am in the same predicament. I have absolutely no use for commerce but seems like if you want to implement the Classified System for now, you will need to purchase IP.Commerce until such time @InvisionHQ has the version that has no requirements for IP.Commerce.

On 3/16/2021 at 12:39 AM, Adriano Faria said:

Sure. In the app settings, choose UPLOAD in the images settings and then you will be able to upload images instead of have them grabbed by any API.

@Adriano Faria Got it, thanks for the quick response! Will be purchasing to test out shortly!

Dear @Adriano Faria,

As there is no alternative for an offline directory, are you able to upload pictures/images with your app?

I might have to use Link Directory as i really need a directory on my website but unfortunately there are no offline directory available.

Looking through the product, it seems like address field, text field, all are available, so only thing missing would be the ability to add pictures to the entry.

Just saw 2.2.1 in the marketplace! Congrats!

And also, noted in the changelog:

Quote

• 2.1 Advert filters #1 (prices, types, conditions) (Feb 2020)

Is there sorting by custom fields now?! Excellent!!

2 hours ago, InvisionHQ said:

2.2.1 is pending approval in the marketplace with:

FIXED upgrade from 1.3.1 to 2.2.x (duplicate column) @NZyan
FIXED long titles display issue (css) @leonovich_J
FIXED classifieds submenu active items bug @numis
ADDED a new setting has been added to make buyer selection mandatory(or not) when completing an ad @leonovich_J

Finally, can't wait! Will be purchasing this as soon as it goes live in the marketplace!

Thanks for the hard work @InvisionHQ!

Thanks, no problem we will wait then 🙂

if in the meantime you could add "Parent category show also subcategory adverts" option would be great 🙂

I 2nd this!

And filter by custom fields too. We know the hard work you put in @InvisionHQ, it is much appreciated!

On 2/25/2021 at 8:38 PM, InvisionHQ said:

Final 2.0.2 release is pending approval in the marketplace.

This is the change log:

FIXED Feedback integration
FIXED minor css issues 
ADDED sort by price (low to high)

ADDED change advert condition for user 
It works only if there are no offers or pending payments.

FIXED filters with pagination issue
ADDED User can set as comple or renew 'expired' ads

Thanks for the update @InvisionHQ!

I see your post states 2.0.2 Final, but in the marketplace it's 2.2.0 Beta (currently), i think you meant to type 2.2.0 Final?

Looking forward to the approval in marketplace so i can finally install this on my site!

On 2/10/2021 at 3:52 PM, InvisionHQ said:

The final version is almost ready. Every time I give an ETA there is someone who complains. That's why I cannot be more precise at the moment. If there are bugs that are so serious that need an urgency support, I will make myself available via PM.

 

Thanks for your update.

Would you recommend i wait for the final release (so i can save the hassle of not going through the update) or should i just go ahead and purchase/install the beta version for 4.5.x now?

Realistically, i'd like to have the classifieds live on my site before 31st March 2021 so am exploring options of which would be the 'cleaner' route to take.

Btw i 2nd the request for showing all adverts in parent category and filtering by custom fields, i think those would be awesome!

Thanks again for all the hard work @InvisionHQ!
