Making the full-fledged auction from the Classifieds #26

I'll start with a little preface why I need this: At the moment, trading in my sphere is held on sites (which, by the way, are outdated long ago) like this: https://www.staraya-moneta.ru/forum/forum24/topic315806/ You can see it using the built-in translator for sites in Google Chrome. The auction process is simple: the seller creates a topic with the item to be sold and the conditions of the auction (start, step, buyout price, etc.) People place bets with their posts. The process is obsolete and with the help of Classifieds I want to get away from this in my community.

Now how to implement it. In my opinion, there is no need to complicate / change the design of the add-on - it is enough to add the ability for participants to view the current bids(OFFERS) by lot. This can be done like this: We need a button with pop-up functionality that will be convenient for both desktops and mobiles: image As example you can see it on my site with Chrome translation if you need it: https://toplot.ru/auctions/aukcionnyj-dom-imperskaya-moneta/aukcion-1-100-monet-v-slabaх-36?sort=bid Screenshot_10 Screenshot_11 photo_2021-05-25_16-56-49 By the way, in theory, a blind bid system should contribute to a higher sale price, but I want to give users the choice of how to sell. And the choice itself between blind and open OFFERS can be given in the settings when creating a new advert. I hope you like this idea. Also I will try to think over and describe the possible rating\rep\feedback system for Classifieds tomorrow.
