in more i fond a bug on ads module when you go to edit an ad is gets to modify also the second costum field even if it you not had set for this category the second costum field.

are you talking about the form in admin panel?

I am attaching two pictures to see the problem..

thanks for your help

Those two custom fields are normally a price, year or an age depending on which catagory you select. All of which are numbers. So i don't get the reason why you would need text.

Anyhow, to remove the number restriction edit modules\boonex\ads\classes\BxAdsModule.php

At about line 1025 look for this.

$sCustomFieldValue1 = floatval(bx_get('CustomFieldValue1'));
$sCustomFieldValue2 = floatval(bx_get('CustomFieldValue2'));

Change to this.

$sCustomFieldValue1 = bx_get('CustomFieldValue1');
$sCustomFieldValue2 = bx_get('CustomFieldValue2');

Is there anyway to add further custom value fields to the ads module so as to have a list of things listed on the ad? rather than just the

Country

Location

Price

Telphone etc?

Thanks
