railslist.com - an open source craigslist script

[unknown888]

Today, I have successfully launched railslist classifieds: jobs, housing, personals, for sale, services and community, an open source
craiglist style classifieds script.

It is named as such to reflect the fact that it has been developed using
rails.

It will be released to open source community today.

In the meantime, i would appreciate if you could take time to have a
look, play around and let me know any issues.

More features will be added as and when the community responds with
their requirements.

This is my very first open source release, so please feel free to
suggest me with your tips / tricks /warnings etc.

Regards

Looks nice though some works appear still pending, I would suggest to add Spotlight Ads showing the latest posting and also include Safety Tips for buyer and sellers and create email alerts for those who are interested in getting latest updates about ad posting .

That's a fantastic idea Paul. I'll add it to TO DO list. By the way, it is now available for download @ Classified Script

Soon, I will setup a forum and push it to github.

The site looks interesting & quite similar to dmoz, but the work seems to be lacking colour. Adding some colours would light up the whole thing Good Luck !

Thanks Rock. Unfortunately, I lack color and visual idea . I am adding more features to it that will be released as v2.0. I will consider changing colors then.

=========================================

I would like to get a copy of that script. I run several craigslist clones.

I'm having a problem with both in that the ads are taken but I never receive an activation email - even when posting from another computer - so I expect others would have the same experience.

I have resale rights on the seocnd clone bught on ebay - so if anyone wants it free I will provide the download. It looks just like my snetworks site but that too doesnt send activation emails or at least I'm not getting hem. Thanks MajorHart

thanks

with regard to sending activation emails using railslist, please ensure that your email settings @ config/environment.rb is correct. for example

#Email settings @ /config/environment.rb

ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:address => "mail.yourdomain.com",
ort => 25,
:domain => "http://www.yourdomain.com",
:authentication => :login,
:user_name => "user@yourdomain.com",
assword => "yourpassword"
}
