hello,

I have a few questions...

1) Would it be possible to turn on/off the "review" and/or "rating" features from the CP? If not, are there any simple changes in the code a newbie could do to disable these features?

2) Are paid listings highlighted in some way that makes them look different from free listings (bold, different color etc.), besides being on top of each category? It would be nice if paid listings could also have a clearly distinct presentation.

3) Would it be difficult to disable url links for free listings and let only paid listings to actually have a direct url link pointing to their websites? (for instance, free listings would be able to list only company name and contact info without any website links, while paid listings would be able to add one or more links pointing to the respective websites).

Thanks

There's no setting for it (but that's something useful that we might add in a future release), but it's something that can be disabled relatively easily by removing references to them in the templates.

No, but again, it is fairly simple to just a simple template change. You can edit the link.html template and add something like <%if isPaidLink%>...<%endif%> (eg. add a class to the div that contains the link listing, and then add to the CSS to change colors, etc).

It's possible. Again it would be a template change. You could conditionally show the URL only if it is a paid link.

Thanks Adrian... and sorry for posting my questions at the GMail forum !!!

If you really did not want to use them, at all, you would need to remove the references from the templates (so the users wouldn't try to click on them) *BUT* you should also probably rename, or delete the rate.cgi and review.cgi programs (or reset the executable bit on them). This would prevent unexpected events if you really want the feature disabled.
