Is it possible with the classifieds mod to get it to require admin approval. I figure I will need to be able to make this a category so I can turn on moderation for that forum. Is there any way to do this?<

No, not in it's current configuration. A number of files would have to be modified; and either two new fields added to the database or new variables to depict off/on status & moderated/unmoderated.

Either the classifieds.asp file or a new file would have to include the administrative functions (switches from above, list of advertisements pending approval with both single & mass approval choices).

Classplacead.asp would need the notification that the advertisement would be posted after approval and a notice to admin that a new advertisement was pending approval, etc.
It can be done, but it'll take a bit of time. I just started two other projects and I'm moving next week, so I cannot get to it for probably 2-3 weeks at the earliest. Maybe somebody else will write this one.<

OK, cool, at least I know that it can be done, maybe someone will help me out that maybe has already done it before. I know I seen it done on a forum using snitz when I was browsing through some posts<

The current Classifieds do have admin approval in it. It just doesn't require the admin to have approval for their own classified.<

Did anyone actually read the "readme" file? It says:
renamed pages (ie classViewAds.asp => classifieds_view_ads.asp)
You can also trash the un-hyphenated files like classViewAds.asp, classPlaceAd.asp, classAdmin, etc...
In the release:
ClassPlaceAd.asp
ClassViewAds.asp
ClassAdmin.asp

Is it me or is there something wrong with that release?<
