Sellers please read -- new bbcode for your threads

Hi all,

I've added a new offer BBCODE to the forum for sales threads only.

This is an example usage:

[ offer]
ITEM: RSGP Mills
PRICE: $0.4
IN-STOCK: true
DESCRIPTION: Fast ingame delivery less than one hour
IMAGE: http://img.sythe.org/nextgen/statusicon/forum_goldex2_new.png
[ /offer]

It gets translated by the forum into a 'rich snippet' which google can understand. Which means your thread may be listed in google like this (except not food, obviously):

It's just a prototype at the moment. I'll be adding more to it once we have a better rating system etc.

I encourage everyone to start using it. Even if you just put it at the foot of your sales thread, it will increase traffic to your thread.

Sweet. Thanks Sythe.

Pretty nice addition Richard. Nice work.

Don't mean to push any buttons but I don't sell half my stuff for "$" I sell it for RSGP would you be able to take away the $ unless we choose to have it there?

RSGP is not an currency for google
Just make it for example for upgrades $9 and put in description you can pay for upgrades via 07 / oldschool gp and add rates

Nice, thanks for taking the time out of your wonderful day that you could be anywhere in the world to update this for us.

tl;dr gj.

There is a currency option in the rich snippets schema but it only supports iso currencies. If people want to sell in gbp, cad, aud or euros I'll add the option, but in-game currencies won't work -- google would just be confused.

Always admiring the hard work you put into the site Richard, thanks for everything man.
