Hello all,

I plan to create a travel information site where user can submit their travel plans (one day, two day ...) and others can rate/recommend/comment it.

If possible, I would like to organize it the manner of country/state(province)/city, so it will be easy to use...

Any recommendation for which module to use?

Thanks in advance!

Shhhht I'm not telling you this!

I wouldn't use XOOPS for it, there's a CMS I would use called Zen-Cart (http://www.zen-cart.com/). Not bashing Xoops, but Zen-Cart would be the best solution for you, it has a very high learning curve, I agree, but it has everything you want and even much more!

I believe there's a Zen module for XOOPS somewhere.

Like I said: nothing bad about Xoops!

zencart? i dun think that is a group cms where users can register and post comment or post their products unless they are the admin or something. correct me if i am wrong. have not update myself on zencart of quite a while.

as for the travel module.
i am assuming the target users would be travel agencies or freelancers etc etc. perhaps you can hack the article module or smartsection, news.

it allows user to submit stuff, comment or rate

Thank you all for the input. I will take a look at the zencart.

This is not a eCommerce, I started to travel recently and find it hard to find places without the help from local people or waste a lot of time. So I want to cerate a site that people can post their travel plan/recommend places (including restaurant, hotel etc)/rate other's travel plan ...

Right now, I am thinking of hacking the mxDirectory ...

Again, any idea/suggestion/comments are welcome !! Thanks.
