The standard checkout process is pretty much fixed and it is not easy to modify it. The one-page checkout module you have with TemplateCodes is also very difficult to modify beyond the modifications which it already allows (e.g. suppressing steps in the process).

I am not really understanding the need to enter the city and state each time. A seller puts the city or state into their registration. You could define them as extrafields which they would then enter during the checkout process as part of their advert submission.

The listing filter can be used to filter on either one single extrafield or the states entered into the admin control panel.

Red face huh..................

okay sir, what i mean is if you were to go to backpage.com

you will see on the homescreen all the avalible citties and states!

ex.

if i went to my site to buy a car i would first search for my:

state
then city
then display all of my categories in this case automotive

i just got a lot of viewers saying its complacated to find what they want cause mines displays listings first and most of my posts the people dont evaninclude a city and state

(F.y.I) My site is adult classifieds and plus i have a little money on my paypal could you alter this script like that and i will pay you for it please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As I said, you can set up an extrafield in your admin control panel to accommodate a location which the poster has to fill in. This will be presented to them when they filling out their description. You could call it place of work, place of sale or whatever you wish. This would then appear in the advanced search for visitors after they selected a category. You cannot do it the other way around because extrafields are tied to categories. Extrafields can apply to just a subset but not all categories. So I am afraid the answer is no.
