Optional Fields - These fields are in addition to the standard listing fields (title, description, etc.) and there are several ways to use these fields:
- Sortable Columns - These fields can be set up to be used as 'sortable columns' (sort listings) while browsing the site's categories and search results pages.
- Add Cost - You can also specify these fields for the seller "add cost" over and above the 'price' field they enter. In other words, the seller can use these fields to specify additional fees (i.e. shipping costs) to be added to the "normal price" of the listing. So, for example, at the end of an auction, the software will automatically calculate the winning bid price and add the seller's "additional fees" to the total that the winning bidder needs to pay.
- Flexibility - May be set to 'required', 'editable', and you can choose the field type (text, numeric, dropdown box, add cost) to display.

For example, you could display Level 2 Featured Listings on the front page and charge a premium. You could then display Level 3 Featured Listings on a subcategory page and charge less for those listings. Each level has its own individual display settings. |
