Hello everybody! The long awaited Flynax 4.5 is here! We know that we’ve been behind all the deadlines we set and each time when we set a new release date, we hoped to meet it. Sadly, things took longer than we expected because we were integrating a totally new module affecting many functions and modules of our classifieds software – membership plans.

We could have released a version without the membership plans but we were well aware how many of you have specifically been requesting the plans. While the update can’t boast a lot of new features, we want to draw your attention to the optimization measures we’ve introduced to Flynax 4.5. Thanks to them this version of our classifieds script has become a really powerful classifieds platform equipped to handle higher load and perform better as compared to the previous version. Let us go over the new features and improvements that Flynax 4.5 offers you:

New Features and Improvements

Listing clusters on the “Search on Map” page (Real Estate Script)

Now all listings located close to each other are grouped into clusters on the Google Maps.

Apart from categories and featured ads, you may also add a custom search form to a listing type page.

Listing URLs in different languages
Now URLs of a particular listing may be generated in different languages improving geotargeting of ads.

Non-Latin URLs in different languages

The option enables you to generate URLs of your site in different languages contributing to SEO.

Hreflang tags
hreflang tags allow you to show search engines what the relationship is between pages in alternate languages.

Preferred language after logging in
The system will save a user preferred language and will enable it by default after signing in.

Listing package description in qTips
Plan description as qtip
The feature allows you to add more description to a listing package displaying it as qtips in front end making your packages look neat.

Alternative price delimiter
Following suggestions and requests we’ve added an alternative price delimiter that works like this: 1.000,00.

H1 tag on Home page
H1 tag on home page
As you know H1 tag was unavailable on home page as it didn’t fit in the design of the home page but realizing importance of H1 to a SEO friendly site we’ve added the ability to enable/disable the tag on home page and did our best to make it look good on the home of every template.

Improved HTML email templates
We’ve improved structure of email templates to make them look good in email clients and web-based email services like Gmail, Yahoo etc.

XSS protection
We’ve strengthened protection against XSS injections to make the update more secure and reliable.

Updated print page
New print listing details page
The layout of the print version has been dramatically improved in terms of data structure, availability of logo and the Maps.

Membership Plans

Flynax 4.5 has got fully-fledged membership plans that you can add from admin panel similar to listing packages presenting another good option to monetize your classifieds portal, real estate site, escort agency or any Flynax script where membership plans might prove to be effective and wanted. You can easily disable or enable the modules of membership plans and listing packages with one click. We tried to make the new module as flexible as possible and enabled use of membership plans along with listing packages.

Membership plans on registration page

A user can purchase a membership plan when signing up; he can renew or purchase a new one. When adding a membership plan you can set its duration, number of listings, availability to user groups, recurring option etc.

Apart from removing and adding new listings, a user may fully manage status of his listings (profiles, properties, cars etc) from his account area, for example he can choose what listings to make standard, featured, active or inactive from listing manager within the number of listings given under his membership plans.

Restricted content on profile details page

Every membership plan in Flynax 4.5 might have the following list of options or permissions to choose from when adding a new plan:

  • Add a listing: You can choose if a user can add listings or not;
  • View contact details: you can prevent users from viewing contact details of listing owners until they sign up and pay for the service;
  • Contact sellers: You can prevent users from contacting listing owners until they sign up and pay for the service;
  • View pictures: You can prevent users from viewing pictures of listing owners until they sign up and pay for the service;
  • Featured account: Accounts with a featured status will be shown in a separate box;

We plan to expand the list of options above; so if you have any ideas about what else can be included to the list, feel free to let us know.
