…maybe i’ll start with this
I also have to say that it is a huuuge work and I’ll probably open a project page with a PAYPAL button to encourage me (need it).
I’m not a professional coder but i’m trying to do the best possible.
Today i’ve almost finished the admin part.
Proud to say that I’ve find something to dynamically (jQuery) add types/cats and edit,order (nested!!),delete,save them. It works !!!

I dont’t know which features I’ll eventually add…
As said above, I’m not a professional coder and it is a challenge for me to finish this as it is
But it’s true, it’s a good idea. I’ll see later.
No widgets planned for the moment (only maybe things like last/random classifieds) and plan to make it different from the others as it is completely build on BuddyPress, with its code & features (notifications, member screens vs site screens, etc).
It will not be a WPMU plugin but a BuddyPress component…
I plan to finish it in about one month, maybe 2.
Now almost all the big things have been done (creation, moderation, admin, display…); the big things that left are notifications and the navigation system (I mean, searches, filters; browsing…)
Then I’ll have to debug it; test it again and again, and between all that take some vacations
I don’t think I’ll add a rating feature in it; I’ll try to keep it rather simple and I don’t see the point to “rate” a classified…
the “watching” part has been implated :
-“add to / remove from watched list” works (also with ajax).
-“list watchers”
hi Grosbouff,
thanks for the update.
I’ll keep sending you PMs’ to see if we can be of any help
ciao

If I have some time to work on it until september, I guess it will be ready to test at the beginning of that month.
Hi, i’m still working on this.
Big steps have been made but there’s still work.
I think i’ll not implent a complex moderation system for the first release; only admin & authors will be able to edit/delete the classifieds.
I changed some stuff to make the plugin ‘extensionnable’; eg. for pictures (done) and google maps (working on); then your contributions
.So steps for the creation / display can be
-core steps
-plugins steps
steps can be optionnable and orderable in the admin panel.
Hope i’ll give you some more news soon !
