68 Mods

Similar Listings

This module integrates with the listing view to display a configurable number of similar listings based on the category of the listing currently being viewed. The number of items shown (both a minimum and a maximum) is configurable via your 68C AdminCP. It also displays their thumbnails.

Stop Incomplete Listings!

This module addresses the problem of customers abandoning checkout before paying for their listing. This is done by emailing them a specified amount of time after they abandon their listing.

Feedback Module

This mod will contact your customers who delete active listings, asking them to provide valuable feedback about their experience with your site as well as testimonial material. We chose to invoke the contact upon deletion of active listings with the assumption that satisfied customers would be the most common "deleters" of active listings, most likely because they found a buyer for their item.

Scam Filter

Our most popular mod, the Scam Filter integrates with your registration form as well as listing contact (reply) requests and verifies certain parameters (admin-defined keywords, IP, location, country, etc) to prevent scams from being perpetrated via your 68C classified site. Prevent scammers or competitors from signing up or contacting your customers through IP bans, country-specific bans, keyword filtering, etc. Click the link for further details and screenshots. Compatible with both 3 & 4 versions of 68C.

Google Map Module

This module allows you to create links to googl maps, display maps inline with ads or both. Admins can set the map up to pull the address for the map from the registration field OR extra fields they create (one of the other for the whole site) as well as allow each individual ad poster to enable or disable the map for their ad.

Calculate Prices On the Fly Using Ajax, the Maffo Checkout System calculates the price of the ad as the user types, adds images, includes extra options such as Featured & Bold listings. This way the user always knows exactly what they will be spending. Two Step Streamline Checkout This System has been condensed down into two simple Steps for the user. The Listing Details, and Image Uploads. They can then see an overview of the costs and from there are forwarded to the payment gateway.

The user selects the length they wish the ad to run when placing their ad. A renewal plugin will be developed in the near future for this module Price and Value Classified Software believes this is the best checkout system there is. That means for all classified ad systems...including Ebay! The work that has gone into this mod has been gruelsome and taken many months. To the right businesses, this mod is worth a small fortune, however Classified-Software appreciates that many of the users of 68 Classifieds are small privately owned websites, many making small-profits or no profits at all. For this reason the Module will be sold at the riduculous price of £49.99 Special Offer As the module still requires a renewal plugin, I will be listing this module at the heavily discounted price of £29.99. Once the renewal plugin is completed, the mod will go on sale at its full (and still bargain) price of £49.99. Any customers who purchase the module at the reduced price will recieve the renewal plugin free of charge once released.
