    Hey Greg,

    Love the stuff you’ve done with WPAdverts and I’m always keeping an eye on your Github for additional features.

    I have a few bits of feedback and questions.

    1. Can you name all your files something similiar for the WP Plugin portal. Some are ‘WP Adverts -‘, others are ‘WPAdverts -‘ and the ones from Github are just ‘Search By Category’ for example. I rename them but any updates ovbiously change this. It’s just nice to see them in a group together on the Admin panel.

    2. Any chance you can add open-graph support which looks better for Facebook? It would be nice to see the advert with formatting like:

    Name:
    Price:
    Description:
    Posted Date:

    3. Can we have a text limit on the title which ends in ‘…’ – currently it drops to a second line but cannot show the entire field. Please see the screenshot below.

    4. Custom category icons – I know you have loads of users asking this, just wanted to add it on the list ??

    5. Sold sign, or a way to ‘Manage’ this for users so it removes from the list.

    6. ‘Renew’ button on the ‘Manage’ form, good for items that haven’t sold in the specified date.

    7. How would I hide the following:
    -Contact form (I’m using BuddyPress and only want sales through there)
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/ddc5jrywldwwwyy/Screenshot%202016-12-02%2020.05.00.png?dl=0
    -Remove the Telephone Number and Email address from the entry form, again using BuddyPress this isn’t really required.
    note: Ideally, it should just say ‘You need to login to create a sales post’ within the BuddyPress addon. https://www.dropbox.com/s/xkcbnbgytk436y9/Screenshot%202016-12-02%2020.05.26.png?dl=0

    8. Finally, I’m using the ‘Limit Limitings’ but I can’t figure out how I can have users have X amount of valid posts at any one time. One thing I’m trying to stop is retailers spamming the market-place, by having a limit it will let second-hand sales happen without retailers taking the entire board.

    Would you mind highlighting what bit is the numerical value so I can ammend that.

    Many Thanks and keep up the great work. I seriously think you should add those ‘Github’ features as optional extras either on your store or on the plugin natively.

    Hi,
    1. i am not sure which files do you mean?
    2. i am not really planning such integration anytime soon, this actually should be handled using some SEO plugin.
    3. i will look into this.
    4,5. this are all planned but as a paid add-ons i am afraid.
    6. this should be in one of next releases.
    7. you can remove the contact information box and email and phone fields with the code below

    
add_filter( "adverts_form_load", "customize_adverts_add" );
add_action( "init", "my_init", 20 );

function my_init() {
  remove_action('adverts_tpl_single_bottom', 'adverts_single_contact_information');
}

function customize_adverts_add( $form ) {
  if( $form['name'] != "advert" ) {
    return $form;
  }
  foreach( $form["field"] as $key => $field ) {
    if( $field["name"] == "adverts_email" ) {
        unset( $form["field"][$key] );
    }
    if( $field["name"] == "adverts_phone" ) {
        unset( $form["field"][$key] );
    }
  }
  return $form;
}

    Note that removing the email field might cause some problems as this field should rather be always filled.

    8. there is a bug in the Limit Listings field, i will update this snippet after the weekend.

    1. The difference in names means they’re not neatly organised together on the plugin list.

    3. Any progress?
    4-5. I’m absolutely happy to pay, it’s a feature on top of an awesome plugin.
    6. Any ETA?
    7. Since it’s filled in automatically via BuddyPress, I presume it should be fine?
    8. Did you manage to update this? I didn’t see any new commits on Github.

    Thanks once again for the reply.

    1. Ok i see, i will update the titles when updates are released.
    3. I did not had time to work on it yet, but note that a quick way to change it is to force specific height for the title 

    
.advert-item span.advert-link { height: 25px !important }

    the height you might need to adjust depending on your theme.

    6. should be somewhere in December or in the beginning of Januray.

    7. yes.

    8. it is updated but i forgot to commit, it should be there now.
