User Paid Sticky [Paid] 1.2.1

[Slavik]

Dang, I want to try this sometime but the price is keeping me away...not that $50 is all the money in the world, just that I don't expect it to pull in much......

Let me add another suggestion (besides a lower price!) which may add value. It would be neat to also have it be available for "donationware" in addition to making a sticky. This would be done through the same interface as follows:

1. When someone would want to spend the $10 to advance (sticky) their ad, there could also be a separate box to add a donation "to support the site" or "for a stipend for the moderators".
2. A URL or link could also be available to distribute to the regular site users (without classifieds) to allow them to just use the donate part! Alternatively, a forum room could be set up to just post threads automatically listing the donations (i.e. - person makes a donation and post appears in forum room "supporters of the site" saying "Slavik has donated to help support the site")....

In the case of my site, I expect that a lot of people would donate just to donate...and maybe some would donate over and above the $10.....

Not to say I need the money (my ads keep me happy), but I'd give the money to the other moderators as a stipend...so called "beer money".....

Anyway, rambling on....

I don't think this modification is best suited as a source for donations, but perhaps a lite version could be coded with the simple donation aspect? Just my humble opinion *bows*

Indeed, I wouldn't look to make this a donation addon. Something like that would be much better suited to its own addon.

I'm just looking forward to the coming features, especially the styling of paid stickies and ability to allow users to choose duration. That is when I will be sending this live on my site, as I feel members need more incentive to use this than just sticky, which the styling will provide when their thread jumps out at you from normal stickies and they can choose a duration that suits them.

Hi Slavik?
Do you have plan to allow order Normal Thread stylings too? (Thread Title, thread background,... stylings) I need this feature.

Thank you.

This would be handled via the Sticky license agreement they have to agree to. Just put in their any links to pornographic sites will be removed with no refunds

I had the same argument....alright then, thanks for the reply

Thank you.

This is a pretty good suggestion, if just for the sticky thread feature. The ability to change the color of the thread title and other customizations to make it stand out a bit more.

Not sure if suggested already but the ability to setup different prices for different day lengths would be nice.

Ex:

10 dollars for 30 days
15 dollars for 60 days

and them be able to choose.

You have an issue with this Slav... I had this installed, but disabled, then when I went to create a new forum just now it wouldn't let me, with the following error:
