Listing Service Plugin
Want to list items for sale, like a classifieds or real estate site?
User View Components

Typically, this component can be placed anywhere, however by default we have placed it into the top right corner of this website design. Once you're logged in, the login box will dissapear.
Login
Registration Box
The registration box is an optional component that can be used if you have a potential for new web users to sign up for an account. You can use this if you want people to register to become "contributors" to your listing service.
Register
Registration is unavailable for this group. |
Search Component
The search component, if included with your package, is pre placed into the top right menu once you are logged in. This list displayed are of links to pages that you have been granted access to.
List Your Homes, Vehicles, Trinkets or Widgets
Now you can list anything you want all in the same system.
The listing service is designed so that you can list items for sale, without the aspect of ecommerce involved -- more or less just like your typical classifieds -- much like a simplified version of Craigslist or Kijiji.
You can even have "contributors" (registered users other than yourself) post up their own listings.
