I am interested in buying 68 Classified but i need some features: 1. Email alerts like: 1.a. people could subscribe to email alerts ( 24hours, weekly, monthly ) when new adds are posted intro a specific category? 1.b. people could recive email if they subscribe to an add wich suffer some modifications like the price? 2. Romanian language pack. It these features aren't available how hard it would be for me to add them and could i get suport for this via the forum? ( i don't mean the exact code but enough suggestions to help me figure things out ).
First of all you would need to translate some simple files into Romanian. No big deal if your romanian is good. There is a language file for the front end and another for the administration area. Many people do this. I have quite a few customers with unsupported languages. 1. When ads get posted emails are sent to the administrator and to the person who posted. By clicking on the link you can determine all the details you need to know about that advert (category, user, title, bla bla). You are effectively taken into the admin control panel for that listing. 2. When someone modifies an advert the administrator gets notification (same process). What you are suggesting is more complicated. It will be possible to do but you will probably need to write a module to do it. Effectively each listing will need a table of email subscribers associated with it kept in the database. These could then be pulled out using a cron job. You may find a third-party product for email marketing of this type easier to bolt on. - one which accepts a url and the email names etc. See what others think here.
