Hi! I am planning to make a classifieds website, but not a traditional one. This one has to be more simple: less fields, less options, easy to use and easy to edit. Now, why would I want that? People are not going to sell anything on the website, they are kind of going to be offering a service or looking for a service. This is not going to be an 18+ site. I have tried Open-Classifieds and OSClass, but they don't really have what I am looking for (they are not bad scripts). So, what script/CMS should I use for this? I have some basic HTML, PHP, CSS and JS knowledge - could I make a custom one from scratch? Also, it has to be free, as this is a spare time project.
Todate, I and my other colleagues find that Open-Classifieds, OSClass and WP Plugins are OK. Don't expect too much from free version. I have tried countless free ones for 15 years now. Frankly, I am quite tired trying out free classified sites scripts. You would know what I mean if you have similar experience.
