Listing Display Page Template - The Listing Display Page is driven by a custom template which uses individual tags for virtually all of the fields on the page. This allows you to rearrange the default template that we give to you to suit your design needs.
Category Specific Fields - You have the ability to create your own custom fields for each category of your site. These fields also serve as searchable criteria for visitors to use on the Search Page.
Character Limits - You have the ability to specify the maximum number of characters that the user can use in their title and description fields.
Photos Display - Control the number of photos allowed and the format in which they will be displayed on the Listing Display Page. Each photo is clickable and displayed in a popup window. The Enterprise version allows for the browsing between photos within the popup window.
Visitor Counter - Each listing has a "times viewed" counter which indicates the amount of visitor traffic for that listing.
HTML Editor - This editor can be turned on for the seller to use when they are listing their item. It allows them to customize the colors/fonts/layout of their listing's description.
Standard Links - The Listing Display Page offers several customizable links that will take your visitors to several software driven pages:
Tell-a-Friend Form Contact Seller Form Add to Favorites Page Seller's Other Listings Page MapQuest Link Printer Friendly Page User's StoreFront Page (requires StoreFront Addon)
Additional Links - The Listing Display Page of the Enterprise Editions also offers the ability for visitors to vote on the listing, as well as, leave a comment about the listing:
Vote on Listing Link View Comments Link
Additional Fields - Additional fields that have the capability to be used not only on the Listing Display Page, but also as "sortable columns" within the category browsing pages. For example, if you were running a Real Estate specific site, you might use these fields for: Number of Bedrooms, Number of Baths, and Year Built. These fields would display on the listing display page, as well as, within the browsing categories tables of your site. So visitors would be able to sort listings by any one of those three fields.
SOLD Sign - The seller can optionally display a SOLD sign image for each of their listings. This allows them to take advantage of the full duration of the listing they paid for, but not be contacted for potential buyers for that item. You can replace the software's default 'sold' image with your own.
Checkbox Question - This type of 'extra question' allows the seller to check off features of their item. Consequently, their 'checked' answers will display as 'checkboxes' on the Listing Display Page. This type of question is typically used when asking questions such as Real Estate property features or Automobile features.
Lead Picture - Allows you to display the seller's first photo larger than their other photos and in a different location on the Listing Display Page.
Splash Page During Listing Process - You can optionally display a Splash Page (displays html content) when user begins the listing process. The Splash Page can be used to advertise another product, review a price plan, etc. Each User Group can have their own Splash Page.
Photo Title - The user can give each photo they upload a distinct title. For example, in the Real Estate category the seller may want to label their photos: Master Bedroom, Entry Hallway, Brick Fireplace, etc.
Vote and Comment - You can give users the ability to vote on ad. They can leave a comment and vote.
Popup Listing Display Page - You can set the site so that when a visitor selects a listing for viewing while browsing, a new popup window will open and display the Listing Display Page rather than a typical redirect to the Listing Display Page.

Auction Specific Features	CA	Classifieds			Auctions
[ Legend ]	E	E	P	B	E	P
Standard Auctions - Feature allows sellers to place their individual items up for auction.
Dutch Auctions (Multiple Item Auctions) - Feature allows sellers to post several identical items or "lots" of items up for auction.

Minimum Bid - This feature allows the seller to set the minimum starting bid for the auction.
Reserve Bid - This feature allows the seller to specify the minimum amount they are willing to accept for their auction from a bidder.
"Buy Now" Auction - This feature allows willing bidders to purchase the auction item immediately at the seller's specified "Buy Now" price.
User Feedback System - This feature allows the seller and winning bidder of each auction to rate each other and provide a comment on how well the transaction went.
Auto-Bidding - Sometimes called "proxy-bidding" or "absentee bidding", this feature allows the bidder to enter the maximum amount that they are willing to pay for the item and then walk away. The software will then automatically bid on their behalf up to the amount they specified...absentee bidding!
Final Fees - Upon successful completion of an auction, you can charge the 'seller' a percentage fee based upon the 'final' selling price of the item.
Bid Status - Bidders can view the current status of their bids by logging in to their personal "My Account" pages.

Bidder Emails - The software will send emails to the bidder when they have submitted a successful bid, when they have been outbid, and when they are the winning bidder of an auction.

Auction Start / End Time - You can give the seller the ability to set a specific date and time for each auction to begin and end, rather than the auction simply going live immediately after placing the auction.
Auction Preview Period - If allowing your sellers to specify the Auction Start / End Time, you can also set your site so that these auctions can be previewed on your site. All of the Listing details will be available to visitors of your site. However, they will not be able to place bids on the items until the seller's specified Start Time arrives.
Enhanced User Feedback System - This feature allows you to set up a rating system that uses "icons" that represent a user's favorable or 'not so' favorable feedback ratings. For instance, by default the system uses colored stars to represent each user's feedback. You can easily replace the default star images with your own if you like.
Subscription Based Bidding - You can set up your site so that each user must have a subscription to place a bid and/or even view an auction.
Endless Auctions (Sniper bidding) - This feature automatically extends the length of an auction if a user bids just before the auction was to end.
