[QUOTE][u]Quote by: squatty[/u][p]I just put the finishing touches on the PHP block.  It's a bit rough around the edges but I think most GL site owners will find it of value.[p]

I created a separate php file named [b]display_ads.php[/b].  You can view the source code [b]<a href="http://www.squatty.com/classifads/display_ads.phps">here</a>[/b].  Note, the select statement will ONLY display ads submitted within the last 48 hours (at least that's what it's supposed to do :)[/p][p]

To deploy the block, complete the following:

[/p]Download the display_adds.php and save it to your /public_html/classifads directory
Add the following to lib-custom.php:[p]

function phpblock_classifieds()
{
  global $_CONF;
	  
  $path = $_CONF['path_html'] . "classifads";
  include_once($path . "/display_ads.php");
  $display = getads();
  return $display;
  
}
  
[/p][p]
You will also notice that I added two links at the bottom of the block.  The submit link goes to an additional page I created.  I removed the submit logic from the original index.php.  This was just a preference of mine.  You can see my version of the plug-in at <a href="http://www.squatty.com">http://www.squatty.com</a>.

[/p][p]
Thanks,
Squatty
