Thank you for your blog posts .. you are opening my eyes to possibilities .. I haven't thought of before.  

I see you have 2 Marketplaces.   Amazing.    I, along with many other sngine ops, I am sure would love to have BOTH a Classifieds section AND a a Marketplace module .. they are 2 different things, but sngine makes you choose 1 or the other.   

I saw you were able to create another marketplace module.   May I ask .. How did you do this?   I would like to start creating new modules based on existing ones.   Did you copy the DB table structure etc?    What else must be done?

Hi, you will have to see and understand the whole srcipt structure. and then you can create anything you want. Juts keep following and speding time and learn bit of PHP and Javascript and MYSQL

I'm an classic ASP programmer from yesteryear ... I know mysql, and enough PHP to be dangerous.   The more time I spend with the script, the more i understand it .. I know most computer logic, but the MVC setup is a bit confusing to me .. and to the AI.   If it's supposed to make things easier .. it sure doesn't.   I have to find the complete logic in 3-4 different places for each item .. and you end up with monolithic files like class-user.php with 20,000+ lines of code which even the best AI struggles with.     

If you have any blog posts or ideas on cloning a module like Marketplace or Offers .. point me in the right direction.   I'd like to create a Classifieds section if it's possible.
