I have been asked by an online community that I am a part of to look at building a standalone website I used community builder many years ago so thought of it immediately as being a good fit, but it has been so long I just want to check out the alternatives

It's to be a community site (free no payment gateway needed ect. though might need to ad one later) I need to be able to do the following;

  • Each user gets a profile page - on which they can post images and status's
  • Each user can actively follow/friend other users
  • Each user gets the ability to private message each other
  • Any user can block any other except 'admin'
  • Any user can search other users based upon - name - classification - location +/- miles etc.
  • User's should be able to report things to admin
  • User's should be able to post 'classified ads' with geographical info
  • Classified's should be searchable by geographical area
  • Responses to classified's should be private.

Also ideally user should be able to categorise their images as NSFW (Not Safe For Work) and other users should be able to apply a filter that blocks these images - it's an artists community someone is bound to post a nude and someone else is bound to be offended by it

And if it is what would be the right 'package' to meet my needs.

    Hi
    Thanks for your interest in Jomsocial, let me share details of options you needed one by one.

    Each user gets a profile page - on which they can post images and status's

    Yes, In Jomsocial each user has his own profile that they can use to post image,video etc.

    Each user can actively follow/friend other users

    Yes users can send friend requests to other users.

    Each user gets the ability to private message each other

    Yes, they can send message to each other, depend on the privacy setting they applied on their profile to allow anyone to send message.

    Any user can block any other except 'admin'

    All users can block each other including admin

    Any user can search other users based upon - name - classification - location +/- miles etc.

    User can search member based on the location set in Google map only when they register. You can use JS Dating search : http://prntscr.com/k7c2oh (only for JS Pro and developer members)

    User's should be able to report things to admin

    Yes user can report the items

    User's should be able to post 'classified ads' with geographical info
    Classified's should be searchable by geographical area
    Responses to classified's should be private.

    There is ads included in Jomsocial, as its need a different extension for managing ads.

    Beside i suggest you to have a look on our demo site here that will show complete demo how it works with all features.

    Let me know if there is any doubt or questions.

      I have looked on the Demo site and I can't see any sort of ad-on for classified adverts.

      Which package for Jomsocial would meet my needs?

      And is there an image safety filter available?

        Hi
        Sorry Jomsocial is community extension, does not have classified advert.
        For image user have privacy option to show images to other users or only to friends.
        You can check it on demo site as well. Under Profile menu > Privacy settings.

        Both Jomsocial Standard and Pro has same version, JS Pro come with 4 JS Themess, 3 Template and free addons for Jomsocial.
        You can check the difference Here

          Privacy and image safety filters aren't really the same thing so I will assume from your response that you don't have image safety filters.

            Hi
            I am not about exact need, in Jomsocial if the image are posted, it will appear for all users, I am afraid There is no such filter on images.

            Regards
