Description

Personal Ad System provides the functions to operate a personal advertising system allowing Internet users to create their own new ads and include graphic images. It provides advanced search functions of active ads. It is customizable and configurable to allow you to define ad fields.

Personal Ad System includes both user front-end and administrative back-end.

User Front-end

The user front-end supports New Ad Entry with image (JPEG or GIF) attachment and Ad Search. The search function is configurable on the back-end for specification of advanced search parameter definitions for each data field. The various pages supporting the user functions use customizable templates allowing you to match both the appearance and functionality desired.

Administrative Back-end

The administrator back-end supports Ad Administration functions for authorizing, updating, activating and deactivating Ads.
