I plan on making a simple classifieds module this summer, perhaps some people could help me with it or vice-versa. I have some basics coded already and a few plans.

I need a classified module myself.

vikasbucha commented 24 September 2005 at 20:16

I need one badly enough. The closest I could get is the directory module.

If you know of a project already going on pls let me know.

I'll add to this and say that if anyone if looking for a little earner I would be interesed in a Classified Ads module too! We have a war chest that I'm sure we could crack open! :) Sounds like we could pool resources and keep a developer fed for while... I wish I had the time myself...

johnnybejohnny commented 2 June 2005 at 21:55

it's not a module, so you can't use it in connection with drupal. You can find it at http://classifieds.phpoutsourcing.com/index.php. Lucky you, it's also open source, so maybe someone is able to port it over, lol. Hope it helps.

Do we really need a classified module ? Maybe...

I am willing to fund this if all the best features of http://craigslist or http://usfreeads.com are added

### Especially anonymous email forwarding for advertisers ####

I am willing to contribute $200 if the same reverse bounty method is used as what we see here "Reverse bounty: securesite.module" http://drupal.org/node/20301 .

We could also enjoy classifed like functionality with the Flexinode. Some customization is required. Such as
Ecommerce module subscriptions for paying members
A new flexinode form field that lets anyone add a "Buy now !" link to paypal or another payment system

I think it'd be great

sciman commented 20 August 2005 at 15:52

I think it would be great to allow members of a community to post items of interest to be categoriezed for response. I'm thinking of classified type postings, personals, volunteer opportunities seeking response, etc. I would love to figure out how to run a simple user-submits-ad site along the lines of http://craigslist or http://www.loquo.com/, and would be happy to contribute along with mpamphile. I don't need the e-commerce components so long as bidders or interested parties could make email contact with submitters. Posts would need to drop off on some sort of schedule. Any tips or developments in this or the related threads would be very helpful.

A starting point

jsloan commented 7 June 2005 at 13:43

I want to implement a classified section for our Intranet. I am looking at the AdEx DTD for a data model and exchange standard. A simple example of using AdEx is the implementation used by AdConnect

I guess the big decision is how to extend 'node' to support the data model. The taxonomy can handle the categories and the built in RSS and XML-RPC support can handle the data exchage. The E-Commerce modules can enable the purchasing functions.

Should it be through Flexinode?

All the pieces are already there...

instead of flexinode try CCK

reggie75 commented 12 July 2006 at 10:15

Try the Content Construction Kit instead of Flexinode.
I read elsewhere that CCK is the more efficient way to create custom nodes.

Is anyone working on this...

llizards commented 9 November 2005 at 13:04

Anyone still working on a classifieds module? I think this is the one major thing that drupal is lacking.

nope...Flexinode could fill

pamphile commented 10 November 2005 at 05:10

nope...

Flexinode could fill the need partially.

I think Dublin Drupaller was working on a extension of Flexinode that allowed theming. That might interest you.

Lately, I've been thinking of a possible Post-Flexinode module that could creat totally different applications based on flexinode data. It would assign functions and actions to be performed on flexinode data types. It would work by piping data from flexinode data types into custom developed functions or modules, intead of just displaying data.

Just an idea...

Otherwise, I'm looking into what would be needed for this module. I've been real busy with work and grad school lately, so I'm not sure when I'll be able to work on it, but it doesn't seem TOO difficult. It's the hooks into drupal and cron that are the tough parts.

If any of you need something a bit faster, doing it in a series of pages with external style sheets would be the quick and dirty way, but it will work. If someone wants the quick and dirty way, before I can write a module, contact me, and I'm sure we can work something out.

A better option?

Walt Esquivel commented 20 July 2006 at 23:31

Your link leads to http://drupal.org/node/58263 which appears to be a revenue sharing model with Junxter.

However, doesn't http://drupal.org/node/62802#comment-118913 seem like a better option? No revenue sharing and pure Drupal. :)

I'd be interested in hearing from anyone that may have perhaps tried either or both classifieds models, the Junxter one and the pure Drupal one. A comparison would be nice, although thus far I believe the pure Drupal one is the better solution, particularly if you aren't looking to charge folks for posting ads. It appears Junxter requires a $0.10 minimum per ad reply.

working on simple classifieds module

sangamreddi commented 5 June 2006 at 07:16

I am working on simple classifieds module. basic module has been built.
Overview of the module: users with necessary permission can submit ads. basically the add's are of 4 types,
1. Free
2. Bold listing
3. Featured Listing and
4. Highlighted listing

Members need to purchase credits to post the bold, featured and highligthed listings. a mail will be sent to the owner of the add before the ad expires. Working for a client, hopefully in a day or 2 i'll show the demo.

Details?

vincent commented 8 June 2006 at 18:02

Hello - I am keen to try your module and maybe I can help in testing it. Can you outline your development timescale for this? If this is soon then I will use yours instead of the combination of views and flexinode as I have seen around here.
I would also like to know if you will have several categories such as:
1. Offers (people having something to sell)
1.1. Computers
1.2. TV
1.3. Books
2. Demand (people looking for something to buy)
1.1 Computers
1.2 TV
...

Thanks!

I'm very intrigued by this

StevenSokulski commented 8 June 2006 at 21:58

I'm very intrigued by this feature and am in the earliest dev stages of a site that could make use of this functionality. We could actually include your module as part of our beta program to give it some mileage and report back to you on how it goes.

Please let me know how the module is coming along and if you are all interested in some testing. Be glad to help out in return for rights to use the module on one of my client's sites.

sangamreddi commented 8 June 2006 at 23:36

Take a look at...

Walt Esquivel commented 17 July 2006 at 23:01

... http://groups.drupal.org/node/785

It discusses the Job Search, User Points, and E-Commerce modules which might help you. I don't see why you couldn't use the User Points and E-Commerce modules to charge in a similar way that I thought about using the Job Search module.

Please post back here as to whether or not you were able to solve your request and what you used to solve it, i.e., which modules you used and whether or not any custom code was needed. By doing so, others can learn from your experience and it will be much appreciated.

hufferbomb commented 6 September 2006 at 23:14

I do also like http://www.usfreeads.com , it has a simple look to it. So does http://craigslist I know there are a lot of options out there. If you are going with the snazzier design layout (http://www.theadpage.com), be sure that it will actually help bring customers. Sometimes the nicer layouts may detract from the actual classifieds page.
Anyway, that all for now.

pamphile commented 14 September 2006 at 20:42

mwu commented 14 September 2006 at 22:03

wow, at first i didn't think it's drupal

Your 01Classifieds.com site looks great!

Walt Esquivel commented 15 September 2006 at 00:30

Very nice clean appearance.

Just curious, but what's your business model? That is, do you expect to do like craigslist.org and simply charge (eventually) on some of the posts? Or do you expect to make revenues off of advertising such as with Google ads? Or both? The reason I ask is that sometimes I see a challenge so similar to, for example, the eBay model and I have to stop and ask myself (because I'm anal and have an MBA!), "How is this going to work, how is this business going to make money, and what exactly is the business model?"

I would encourage you to get as many of your friends, coworkers, colleagues, family to "seed" your listings because what you need are lots of people posting to it so that it becomes "valuable" in terms of being able to find things of value (for those looking to buy, for example) as well as offer things of value (for those looking to sell, for example).

I wish you great success! Again, your site looks really nice and clean. Great job!
