Country selection for selling/buying forum

[michelrietveld]

Is it possible to filter on country, for example, i want to see what members are selling in The Netherlands in case i need something urgently ;-)

I just spent an hour trying to figure this one out.

Vbulletin no longer supports full-text search, another damn thing nuked by v4, so I am unable to include meta-data like the "postbit" information like country in the search query. As a matter of fact: None of that data is cataloged anymore, at least that I can see.

There is a concerted effort from third parties to get a full-text engine like sphinx into vbulletin but progress is slow.

perhaps in v5 then

.... in case i need something urgently ;-)

If you need something then why not post a BUYING: post.
It's a two way street.

[michelrietveld]

that is of course another approach but i thought also of the opportunity to see what is currently availlable at a specific location, sort of marketplace like feature with a range setting/limitation.

Makes local window shopping a bit arduous.

Wouldn't know.
I hardly ever buy windows.

I went shopping for new windows in the Red Light district in Amsterdam with Kevski and hiw wife like 2 weeks ago.
So i knocked on a window with a nice lady behind it and asked: "What does it cost ?"
She smiled to me and said it was only 50 euros.
I answered: "That's not much for double glass panes"

Sorry, I read 'Country selection' and expected to see a Kenny Rogers album review.
