juven14 I'm not sure about the usershare's but I'll address the upgrades. I believe you can buy upgrades and support on a yearly basis. I'll have to look back at the cart and see what the pricing is.

Edit: the pricing for upgrades/support is $29.99 though it isn't in the products area. I suspect you will need to create a ticket and the process can begin from there.

angler Another question... If I want support and upgrades after 1 year, can it be purchased? If so how much and how long will it last for?

angler Bringing my post back from the dead.... I have some questions on the php usershare mod.

1. If phpBB users can access the classifieds with same login, does that mean whenever a phpbb user registers, it creates them a classifieds account also? If not, anyone know how this is done?

2. Related to question 1, Will they still have to login to the classifieds even though they are logged into phpbb or is the session seamless?

3. If a classifieds user registers, can it be disabled so that it does not create a phpbb user?

Basically I want my phpbb users to be able to access the classifieds seamlessly. Also I want it so that whenever someone registers on phpbb, it creates a classifieds user also. I just need 1 way direction(phpbb -> classifieds not the other way.)

Chaslie Could I also add that it is wise to backup all files and archive these before upgrading your site. That way, you have working code to fall back on if something goes amiss.

When the core 68 script is updated, a changelog is provided meaning you only need to update those files listed in the changelog - not the whole set of files.

It is also wise to keep your own changelog as well. Keep you own record of files you have modified or that have been modified as a result of adding a module/custom code. Then check against this before updating your site.

juven14 Upgrades are rather painless, however when templates are updated, if you have a bunch of custom changes these will need to be copied over to the new templates. So the amount of pain involved really depends on the amount of changes you make as well as the tools, methods you use to keep track of what you've changed.

The module system for the most part doesn't get effected by upgrades unless some process is completely rewritten. Further, the hooks will stay in place and more than likely the module will still work. The module code is kept seperate from the core files and is just included, so you won't run into much trouble with upgrades.

As for support, 68 Classifieds doesn't trouble shoot custom modules, you will have to depend on upgrades to custom modules as well as support by the module maker. With every upgrade I have kept our modules up to date, being none of them were effected since 3.1.3, when we started writting them. At anycase we do go through them with a file compare and looking at specific areas of code to ensure they are compatible with the latest version. We like to provide support like you find it here in the forum.

angler I think these are my last couple questions. How easy are the upgrades? Is there a step by step process through the web interface? Also if I was to purchase a module from whoever and then I upgrade the classifieds and the module stops working, would I turn to the people that developed the module or to 68classifieds support? If its up to the module devs, how quickly do they usually fix the modules to work with latest versions?

juven14 No, this is something you have to make or hire out. I'm playing around with a module for this right now. Will keep you posted.

juven14 Yes, you just watermark the image with a sold text image after it is identified as sold.

angler Thanks for the responses! In regards to the watermarking, all I could find was a reference to a module "Lhotch" had created that watermarked an image while it was being uploaded. This is a nice feature, however doesn't allow for placing a SOLD over the image. I wonder how much it would cost to have it developed? Any ideas?

Everything else looks good. Is there any anyone out there that has switch from geoclassifieds to 68classifieds?
