A Marketplace on Your Terms

The Classified Ads add-on transforms your Larapen website into a full-featured listing platform. Users can post ads with images, descriptions, prices, and contact details. Visitors browse listings by category, location, or keyword search. Whether you are building a local buy-and-sell platform, a niche marketplace, or a community classifieds section, this add-on has the tools you need.

Location-Based Browsing

Listings are location-aware, allowing visitors to find ads near them. Combined with the GeoIP system, users can automatically see listings in their area. City and region filters make it easy to narrow down results, while map views give a visual overview of what is available nearby.
