Post by bit on 11/29/04 at 23:20:58

Is it possible to allow user to set more than 14 days for aution. For example, 2 months.

Go to
sub check_item_data
Goto this line:

oops($txt{'You must enter the number of days your auction should run, from 1 to 14'})
unless $form{'DAYS'} < 15;

change the text and the condition ...
for instance:
oops($txt{'You must enter the number of days your auction should run, from 1 to 30'})
unless $form{'DAYS'} < 31;

open eConfig161.pl
search the script for:

'You must enter the number of days your auction should run, from 1 to 14'

edit the text and save the script files.

DONE! however on the "Post A New Item" form it still says Deadline: (max. Days = 14). it should say 30 days........ and this brings up, is there a way to change any of the other text in the form?? I'd like to change "Start-up" to something else

No problem ...
change the content of $txt{...} and change the coresponding content in %txt (eConfig161.pl)

doesnt seem to work....

on the form for listing a new item is the line;

Deadline:
(max. Days = 14)

I'd like to change it to;

Auction Length
(30 day max.)

line 1663 and 1664 of eauction.pl read;

<td valign="middle">$txt{'Deadline'}: 
($txt{'max. Days = 14'})

if I try changing it to;

<td valign="middle">$txt{'Auction Length'}: 
($txt{'30 day max.'})

where it's suposed to appear on the form is blank

Change the content of $txt{...}
(contained in eAuction.pl)
and
change the coresponding content of %txt
(contained in eConfig161.pl)

WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!! thank you.... one question still though :)

I changed it to say;

Auction Length:
(max. Days = 30)

but now the Start Time also says (max. Days = 30) ...... any way to make this different? Preferable I"d like to remove this option all together and all auctions would start immediately.

Days (from now) = 0
means: the auction of the item starts immediately
