top-listings ?
I would like to give my users the possibility to make their listings to be above other listings when they pay an additional fee.

- Is this feature already build in into G-Links ?
- Or is there a Plugin available for this ?



Many thanks,

Erich

There is a way you can do this via GLinks by creating new Link properties, build conditions, some template edits and updating build sort order.

However in my opinion, managing paid listing and keeping up with all paid links would be soooooo much time consuming, and you might be saving yourself lot of headache and time by using a plug-in that is created specifically for this purpose.

I guess you are talking about Andy plug-in called "Priority Listing Pro" ?
Do you have this plug-in in use and does it work fine without any issues ?


Thanks a lot !

I am not using that plug-in specifically. However setting up my website without Andy's plugin would be not the same. Talking about issues with the plug-in, I am pretty sure, Andy is pretty good at taking care of any problem or bugs (if any) you might find in the plug-in.

P.S.. I am using other plugins from Andy and haven't had any problems.

Hi,

Yeah, thats the one (PriorityListingPro) ... however, if you just want it so people can purches a priority listing (not sorted into "slots"), then the BuyPriorityListing plugin will do a better job for you (and its cheaper :))

Cheers

It is built in. Ever since we had payment support, paid links would get sorted at the top of the list. Newer (can't recall which version), added the option to not do this (build_sort_paid_first).

Hi Adrian,

I am actually going to have ALL links to be paid for.
I would like to charge for "premium-top-listing" an additional amount.

Is this build-in as well or do I need to use the Plugin from Andy ?


Many thanks,

No, it doesn't do this by default.
