$30 for this mod - Classifieds Board Mod

OK, I've asked about this a few times and haven't had anyone give it a shot so I thought I'd offer some cash to get it done. $30 via Paypal if someone can do this mod. Then you can post it as your mod and everyone else can use it for free. You'll get the credit, the money and be a hero! ;) I just want the darn thing done! :) (and I think it would be a nice mod for others)

=== Classified Boards ===

Basically this mod is to add some new input fields when a new topic is started in certain boards. In addition to the "subject" and "message" fields I'd also like to add "state" (drop down list) "city" (text field) "price" and "email".

  • I'd like those new values to be required and diplayed as the first few lines of text in the message body.
  • The value from the "state" field should also be shown in front of the subject line (ie: NY - Cool stuff for sale) so people can easily see if the item is in their area just by looking at the message index.
  • There would need to be an admin area to select which boards would get these new fields. (Probably just a checkbox in the "Edit Boards" section of Admin. Like the Announcement Board mod)
  • I'd like the code commented enough that I can go back in and add and delete fields later if needed
OK, here's the one bad part (potentially). It needs to work for YaBB 1.3. (I know, I know, I should be on 1.4, :-[ but I'm waiting for 2.0 to come out.)

Obviously there should be only one person doing this, so it will be first come, first serve. If you want to do it post here. There's no set deadline, but it would be nice if it could be done in the next few weeks.

I think that's about it. Hopefully I haven't missed anything. Please post with any questions.

Thanks!

That offer probably violates the GPU and that's why nobody's replying. though I am sure somebody who has spare time will do it for free.

I highly doubt there will be an upgrader for 1.3 to 2.0.  My guess is there will just be a 1.5.1 to 2.0 one.  This is me just speculating though.

That thought did cross my mind which is why I specifically got permission from Jeff Lewis before posting it. Personally I don't think it violates it at all. I'm not asking that the mod be mine and kept secret. I'm just trying to get the ball rolling. The mod would still be like every other mod out there and available for everyone to use and be completely open source.

Quoteand that's why nobody's replying. though I am sure somebody who has spare time will do it for free.

I've requested it before and no one has responded at all. Even way back on the Boardmod site for Yabb Gold. That's why the offer of cash, because it's obviously not working to request it for free.  :)

If people really have a problem with it I'll retract the $ offer.

It isn't against the GPL. If someone were to do it (as in me) I would only do it on a newer version as I couldn't fix any bugs if it wasn't. I would prefer 1.5.1 since it has a coding style.

Yes, the 1.3 version may be causing problems. Someone has said they would do it so I'll keep everyone informed as to the result.

Thanks!

Do you know how many mods you have said you will do, I don't think I have ever seen a finished one from you.  ::)
