Hello,
I was asked by a few of my users for some Auction software on the site, so I put together a small Auction Mod v1.2
The Auction Mod v1.2 is easy to install and with 10 being easy and 1 being hard, this is a 10.
The Auction Mod v1.2 is fully intergrated into Snitz and e-mails others that have bidded on an item so they (hopefully) don't miss out on the item. I have also allowed visitors to go to the first page of the Auction Mod v1.2 but no further and need to be a logged in member to view items and bid. This has been tested on and MS SQL Database and MS Access only.
I have plans to add in the next release (v2.0) to have Categories, Admin Interface and the abillity to upload images.
Please read the readme in the download and if you have issues, please post in the Help: MOD Implementation forum. E-mails will not be returned. Enjoy.  |

Given that version 1.2 has been taken over by 2.0 and avaliable at SnitzBitz, and now are 2 copies of the mod floating about, I will not be doing any more modifications, so Carefree do with it what you like as you are anyway. |

Cannot reach the server where the original zip file was stored (it will be offline until sometime in July), so I stuck a copy on MediaFire.
There is a necessary change to auction_item.asp to enable paypal link, etc. to function.

David, i have finished the feedback system. Had to weed out loads of bugs today, but it's working fine, I have learned so much when making this i am already a little bit proud on it.
I know it is probably not fitting for your mod - you said you dont want a second ebay, but i think it would make other people happy as well to have feedback in their auctions. At least my users liked the idea and i think it helps making trades a little bit safer.
So my question is - if you don't want this for your mod - can i post it as an addon or "hack" of your mod in a seperate thread? I am still sorry for hijacking your mod and now i still want to give something back to this great community but do it better than in my previous attempt. I would like to ask for your permission for doing so. |

Look guys (gals), it is over and done, had my little spit. I have got the categories working and just about to work on the admin side of it, so an Admin can go and edit/delete not only the items listed, but the categories.
I have it running here: Classic Motorcycling Australia (not the test site)
I have a test site here: Testing MySQL (you can set up an account to test if you like)
Both of these have the categories, no admin yet.

David, i can only apologize for what i have done. I hope you can forgive me, I am just a stupid noob who yet has only asked a handfull of asp questions and learned a lot by his own. I admit that i did not think enough about what you want the mod to be. I apologize from my whole heart for being such an egocentric and not reading enough around here to know how thinks work. I really didn't intend to break your mods integrity and my additions were badly coded anyways.
I also would love to see more of this mod. I have had so much fun with it, i made many additions for it with much work, i barely ever learned so much asp as when working with this mod. I still totally love it. I just finished a rating system, very very basic in 1 table as it has only a score of 1-5, a comment and displays the average for a user as seller, buyer and in total. And i made it so eneded auctions are displayed in red and saying ENDED: before the date. And i took much time to make a good function that displays time left for an auction as DD:HH:MM, this was sooo hard for me to get working as it should. I also made a fix as it displayed the wrong bid as a winner in an auction.
I am currently working to make the last 5 comments as a buyer and seller displayed on the feedback page. Next imma integrate an image uploader from my backend php site (I have a cheap php backend host for file, video and image uploads). I think i might also look into a buy-it-now button.
I must admit i am a really bad coder as i didn't use the language system, i only have english on my site anyways. I wish i was better at webdesign, my stuff works but it looks terrible i must admit. I already turned it from "MG" to "Yuck" by adjusting fonts and size, but I am not that good to make it look nice and tidy like on ebay or so.
Don't worry i will not post a zip file or so. I did not only learn in term of asp, but also on netiquette here. =) If you want i can send you the files, but i would understand if you don't after how clumsy i have been. |

Good luck with it on your forum. I'm going to take it off mine as I'm not nearly the coding type many of you are. Sorry to have upset you with my suggestions. |

When and if I decide to go back to it, I will only be using the MOD on my sites and with selected people that I think would not take it away from what it was meant to be.
The MOD was not meant to be a replacement for "eBay" as some have asked for by wanting a feedback and giving users a score and some of those functions will simply not work in "Classic ASP". Also there is a "Watch" function in the current release for MS SQL and MS Access users, as it shows Items that you have placed a bid on.
As for editing the Auction item and the time changing, it is only fair that the Auction restarts from that time as you have then changed the rules by changing the items details, be it the description or the price, but it is not that hard to add that if the time goes say an hour past it being added, it is not to be edited again. |

 It's a shame this seems to be dropped right now. I hope the author has a change of heart. I think so many people were just very very excited to finally see something like this and jumped right onto it.

Sorry if it was me who got the whole thing crashing here. I never intended to insult confuse or betray anyone. I am this kinda idiot guy who really thought it would help this mod if i showed interest and at least TRIED to be part of it and though my asp abilities are rather ridiculous somehow contribute towards it. I really thought it was a good idea and give this mod some "community" feeling like i knew it from other open source projects. Must be my curse that i have reached the exact opposite of that and even if it's too late now I'd like to apologize for that. I really didn't have any evil or malicious intentions, i hope at least some of you can believe me. |

I didn't figure you'd be too happy about it. |

Well, I am going to step away from making MODs now as everytime I do, people do exactly that, end up with multiple zips and getting confused from what I originally wanted for the MOD.
So I am going to let the others carry on with it. At least when I made changes to others MODs, it was after asking them if it was OK and not just "upset" the original person who made it. (my little dummy spit) |

I just realized I may have come off as ungrateful, I certainly didn't mean to. I'm very grateful for the poeple that write the mods.
It's just that with 3 different people now making thier own changes and zipping them on thier own... how do we know who included what and where... |

Another important info: I just messaged my lucky buyer who won an auction for 18 USD (it started at 1 USD) and he said he only did the initial bid of 2 USD. Normally i would have said "OMG LIAR, IMMA REPORT U TO EBAY", but in this case i fear it might be a bug. That possible? |
