Landshop Support Forum / Can it be customized to...

Hi,
I already used an html template, customized the CSS, and set up web pages with forms the way I want them. And I set up a MySQL database with tables and fields to use with the site. So I need something to make the site work with the database. I want to be able to have php sessions on a For Sale By Owner realty classified type site that people can pay to list their own properties on.

So my questions are:
#1, is it possible to customize this program to work with an existing site, with existing forms, with existing database tables and fields?
#2, can it be customized to be able to work as a For Sale By Owner realty classified type site that people can pay to list their own properties on? And
#3, if the program can do both of those things then how do I go about setting it up that way? Thank you.

It is theoretically possible to tweak landshop to work with other templates and/or database backends.
However, this is way too complicated to explain in a few sentences here and it doesn't make much sense I guess.
It will never be easy to adapt a script to an existing layout AND database, the other way round would have been easier I guess....

Hi,
Thank you for your reply. Ok, if I were to start over and adapt the Landshop files to fit what I want, can it be customized to be able to work as a For Sale By Owner realty classified type site that people can pay to list their own properties on? And, if so, then how do I go about setting it up that way? Thank you.

I'm sure it is possible. However, it's too much work to describe here step by step.
If what you want is a c lassified ad system for real estate it will be easier to take an existing CA system and modify that...

Hi,
Ok, do you know of any open source classified ad systems that you could recommend? Thank you.
