Extensive Control Panel

e-Classifieds contains a powerful, web based control panel that allows the administrator to modify or delete any ad, review new ads before they are posted, send out e-mail notices to users whose ads are about to expire, purge old ads, view the mailing list, clear the mailing list, and send out mass e-mails to subscribers, all from a point-and-click graphical user interface. It also allows the admin to add or change the photo in user ads, run the Keyword Notify program, and purge old Keyword Notify profiles, as well as to create, modify, or delete categories online. The admin can edit and/or purge user registrations, as well as to record and view payment information through the online payments manager. Finally, the admin can edit the system variables, general variables, appearance variables, and the header and footer online. The control panel even includes pop-up help windows for each of its options. It also displays the current status of the program, the edition that you are using, the version number, and the build date, as well as a version checker.

The control panel in the Premium Edition adds the ability to delete multimedia files from ads, to view or clear the ads log, to create static HTML pages, to edit users' Auto-Notify profiles, to create, restore, or delete backups, to run the DataGuard routine, to preview uploaded multimedia files, to view or clear the logs of blocked IP addresses or blocked users, and to automatically generate cron files. The template editor allows you to edit templates online. The control panel also allows you to set system variables, general variables, appearance variables, ad banner variables, multimedia variables, fee-based options, user registration options, and system maintenance options online. It also adds displays of your Perl version, your server operating system, the script path, and the document root of your server.
