Sponsored and Paid Listings

[mycolumbus]

Do I need to enable somewhere in my admin control panel so that users can choose to upload pics or pay for sponsored listings? I cannot seem to find where to enable this feature.

Thank you.

Here is my suggession:

1. create a new custom field, called 'picture' with field type 'image'
2. all new submission now will have an upload form to upload the picture
3. In order to display image for sponsored only, then in rows.html do not display the picture: <%$picture%>
But in sponsored_rows.html put that code to display the image

Sorry, I don't think I explained myself clearly.

When a user submits a website, how or where do they go to choose either a premium or sponsored listing? Cannot find this anywhere nor in the admin panel. I could only enter prices for premium and sponsored listings in the admin panel.

Are users able to pay at the time of submission via an automated process?

Thank you.

In 5.2.0. The user must be registered and have their listing under 'my listing' section at user panel. There they will have an option to upgrade to paid listing

Thank you. That's what I wanted. Which has more visibility - Sponsored or Premium?

Sponsored: have different color, it will be placed in top of category listing, and top of seach result
Premium: will have the different color, and below the sponsored in search result, but above free listing

So. Sponsored is the most visible for visitors.
