Default Blog Articles

Greetings,

Most of you know that I write articles about 68 Classifieds on my blog. I am interested in taking suggestions from users of the 68 Classifieds for new articles. I already have the following:
  1. Using the RSS Feed
  2. Add an RSS Feed To The Seller Store
  3. How I Reduced Most Of My Abandoned Listings
  4. And I'm in middle of a series 68 Classifieds Basic Structure For Design with parts 1 & 2 posted.
What would you like to see? Tips, Tricks, Tutorials, etc. Just reply to this thread with your suggestions.

Thank you for your time.
-Mike

Here is an idea I had:
Explain what extra field types are the best in certain situations.

To tie into field type choice you may want to expand on it to include referential integrity - controlling user input to add value to searches etc.

There is a whole myriad of things to cover......

extra fields and how they relate to ads and categories.

Users and how they relate to ads

packages and how they relate to ads and to categories.

Describe how the default search works and how extra fields tie into it.


Thats just off the top of my head.......now we just need to get people to read it
