On the user´s list of adds it is possible to buy extra promotion called "top of list"
I think that ALL possible and published promotion types should be available there too
That way users don't have to EDIT their adds to buy promotions, but are presented with the suggestions to buy more promotions, because they SEE them directly at each add on their list of adds....
Many og our cutomers don't buy promotions at the time they create the adds, and never return to edit the adds to buy promotions...
Promotions are a huge part of our sales, so the easier and more visible the promotions are, and the easier the advertisers can see the promotions and BUY them - the better
Of course it should only list the promotions that a user has not yet paid for - and also it would be great if the system sends an email to the advertiser when a promotion is no longer active, to motivate them to re-buy promotions :)

I LOVE DJ CLASSIFIEDS!!!!! :)

It would be nice to be able to JUST DISPLAY the dates where there is an EVENT rather than the complete Calendar. This helps for organizations where they ONLY have events a few events in a year. So is there is one event on April 23, another one in July12, the next one in July 24, Nov 05, Dec 24, Dec 25 and so on, the scroll menu should show those dates and skip the rest of the dates. Because otherwise, it will be very difficult for the Users to see all the upcoming events of the Organization unless they manually scroll through each page.

The rest of the Calendar dates where there is no events is of no use to the Users of that site anyway.

Suggesting to implement correlation between expiration and promotion for adverts at the time of advert creation and after advert is posted.

General idea:

1. To restrict promotions based on advert expiration at the time of advert creation.
2. To allow promotion for adverts but no longer limited by expiration.

Here are several possible scenarios that lead to this suggestion:

Scenario 1 when advert is created:

If you set up multiple duration periods for ads (i.e. 7, 14, 21 days, etc.) and If you set up multiple promotion periods for different promotion types (i.e. 7, 14, 21 days, etc.). Let’s say a user wants to publish an advert for 14 days and wants to promote it as well. In the drop down menu for promotion types https://snag.gy/4yhMIK.jpg the user sees all promotion periods. This is confusing because the user can post an advert for 14 days but chose/pay to promote it for 180 days. When hes advert expires and user doesn't want to extend it a refund to the user for the overpaid amount has be issued.

We know that some users will detect it and not pay for more they need to, but not all users are tech savvy, so if users pay for 14 days they should be restricted to buy promotions for only 14 days at the time when advert is created.

Scenario 2 when advert is already created:

User published for 14 days, 7 days left and the user wants to make promotion on the advert and he knows that advert will be renewed, so he selects 21 days promotion because longer promotions are usually cheaper and this will be better for him then selecting now 7 days and later 14 days.

======================

The compromise in this scenarios is to limit users during advert creation to buy promotions for as long as they set their advert will last. However, after an advert is created and published, the user has to have a choice to chose whatever promotion needed for as long as needed.
