You can create extra image fields in the field definitions tab.

Not sure what is going on with the size – that might be a question for the CMSMS forum – forum.cmsmadesimple.org

Hi Luke..
i’m building a website using CMSMS right now, and decided to use product module..
do you know how to upload multiple image product for one product?

for example like this : http://www.perlunar.be/products/48/19/Groene-ketting-met-grote-kunststof-steen.html

i’ve been trying to make a new field for image uploading, but someway somehow the image didn’t come out as the same size..i wondering why..

Hi Christie,

I have the same problem occasionally. Try downloading the .tar.gz and copying the contents of it to your modules directory, and then going to “Modules” and click “Install”.

Cheers,

Luke

Hi Luke..
thanks so much for the list..
i’ve been trying to install formbuilder (ver FormBuilder-0.7.xml) for several times, and it keep saying “Error parsing XML file. Please make sure you are uploading a .xml file and not a .tar.gz or zip file”
do u know what’s wrong?

i’m using cmsmadesimple-1.9.4.1. and PHP 5.3.5

You could try open-realty.org. Not as good at managing/editing static pages as cmsms but it’s designed for real estate and has huge flexibility.

You could probably modify products->cart->orders and frontendusers for the credits side of things, and I think news is the best to modify for the real estate listing type thing (News is pretty feature rich and flexible). But I think I’d probably look at some real estate listing scripts instead of CMSMS for that type of project.

Thanks Luke, I haven’t thought about the News module.

My client needs the following feature: A real estate site with payment, where front-end users can buy credits, and upload properties with images, various descriptions and fields. For simplicity let’s say 1 credit = 1 property (can be product or anything else).

Obviously there is no such a module so I am searching the most appropriate module to fork in order to achieve this functionality.

Hi Atti,

I think your best bet for that would be to use the news module.

Cheers,

Luke

Hi guys! Do you know a module beside Uploads, where front-end users can upload and manage products?

Thank you for that tip Emilio! I’ll consider that. At the moment, I ended up using the news module as my best option.

I simply created my own summary template and changed it into a schedule-table for upcoming games. The details template is a blog on each specific game that you can find under the summary template. On top of that, I’m using a JQuery filter to filter the summary template schedules by date, or time, or teams playing, or location of the games.

It’s amazing what you can do with just the news module!
