New Province(Location) Filter and Province Field for Ads
I’ve been burning the midnight oil for the last couple of weeks working to improve the functionality and usability of Phlist.com
Now, I’m happy to announce 2 major improvements:
First. Location (Province) Filter
I’ve always wanted this feature. Unfortunately, this isn’t included as a feature in the purchased classified ads software where Phlist.com is running on. This would make browsing for ads less obtrusive as only ads that belong to the selected province are displayed.
If you’re in Cebu and looking for a Car, normally you wouldn’t want to see ads posted in Manila, or any other location.
Or, if you’re in Bohol and looking for an Apartment, you would want to browse only Housing ads that are posted for Bohol.
To change your location filter, click the “Change” link on top.
The list of provinces will be displayed. Select the province you want to browse ads.
Clicking “Show ads in all provinces” will do exactly as it says. 
Second. Added Province Field for Ads
I’ve been seeing a lot of members posting ads intended for a different province, other than the Province specified during user registration.
Examples: A member from Cebu is selling a condominium located in Manila.
Someone from Cavite is posting an ad for Batangas.
So, I decided to create a separate “Province” field for the Ads table.
When posting an ad, there is an additional “Province” field. This will be set to your home province as a default. You can change this to whatever province you want your new ads to belong.
If you have ads that doesn’t belong to the right “Province” right now, please update them.
That’s all for now.
Thank you for visiting Phlist.com!
