By default the ability to add any HTML in the description field is disabled. If you would like to allow a member to use HTML in the description field, you will need to list the tags that you would like to allow in the field below. An example would be: a, b, img, font, etc.
NOTE: there is still a pre-programmed list in the source code that limits the allowed HTML tags in an entry. If you would like to see the list of forbidden tags, please refer to the /application/libraries/Engine/Filter/Html.php file. These tags were forbidden to prevent the corruption of the site's styling; however, if you would like to take any of the tags off the list, you are more than welcomed to at your own risk.
Set the maximum allowed number of Travel listings per member.
Enter the maximum number of travel listings allowed for the members of this level. The field must contain an integer between 1 and 9999, or 0 for unlimited.
When finished modifying the privileges of the selected member level, click on "Save Changes" to save any changes that you have made.
Determine what Questions members must answer when creating a Travel listing. To reach this page, click on the "Travel Questions" tab.
To create a new Travel Question, click the "Add Question" link.
You should see a popup as shown below:
Select a “Question Type”.
This field contains two types of options - “Generic” and “Specific” Question Types. Generic types, such as "Single-line Text Input" have no special features - they simply will display that specific type of field on the listing page. Specific types, however, are much more interesting! Many have special features specific to that type of field. For example, the “Twitter” and “Facebook” types will automatically link the Twitter/Facebook handles in their listing when they fill in that field. Other specific Question types come pre-populated with options (such as “Gender” or “Country&rdquo
so that you don't have to add them manually.
Enter a “Question Label”. We’ll show you how this looks on the Travel listing “add” and “edit” screen in a screenshot at the end of these steps.
Enter a description for your Question. This helps the member to know more details about this Question field and shows beneath the input box.
[Optional]You can provide an Inline CSS class that will be applied to the field so that you can style specific fields differently. You will also need to define this class either in the source code or one of the CSS files editable in the Theme Editor.
[Optional]You can add a Custom Error Message which will display when there is an error with the field, such as when the member leaves a required field blank.
Choose whether the Travel field is required or not.
Choose whether or not to show the field on the Travel listings search options. This allows members to filter Travel listings by that field in the Travel listings search area.
You can choose whether the field is visible on the Travel Page or not.
You can choose whether or not you want this field to show up on the creation page when a member creates a new Travel listing.
Once you're done filling out the form, click "Save Question" to save your new Travel Question.
You may have a few fields for which you want to add more choices. For example, if you've created a “Select Box” type of Question, you'll need to specify the options for the select box. To do this, click the "Edit Choices" link beneath the name of the Question in the list. Below, we show the Gender Question.
Occasionally, you may want to have a field dependent on a member option being selected. For example, you might have a Question "How did you hear about our site?" Your options might include "Friend Referral", "Google", "Blog Article", and "Other." If the member selects "Other", you may want a text input box to appear which allows them to enter custom text.
To do this, click "Edit Choices" for the relevant Question. See screenshot above.
Click on the label for the choice you want to add a dependent field to (for example "Other"). 
When you do this, text similar to the following text appear beneath the question: ‘These extra questions appear when "Other" is selected for "How did you hear about our site?".’ Click the link beneath that text to "Add Question." 
Follow the question creation steps outlined above to add the dependent field.
Clicking the "Hide Questions" link will hide the dependent questions - to display them again, simply click "Edit Choices" and then on the choice associated with the dependent question.
Questions can be re-ordered by clicking on the icon to the left of their names and dragging-and-dropping them up or down.
Editing a Question is much the same as adding one. The form will look nearly identical, but you won't have the option to select from an existing field. Click “edit” to open the edit popup for the Question that you want to change.
To delete a Travel Question, click the "delete" link next to the Question's name, and press “OK” when the confirmation prompt pops up.
Create categories if you want to allow your members to categorize their Travel Listings. In order to get to the Categories page, click on the "Categories" tab.
Categories allow your members to organize their Travel listings with others of similar subject matter. If you have no categories, your members will not be given the option of assigning a category. Categories can help members find similar content easier; can help with SEO; and can help make a niche site more unique for its members.
To edit a Category Name, click on the "edit" link under the "Options" column for the Category whose name you want to change.
It will open a popup just like the one used to create a Category. When you have finished making your changes to the Category Name, click on "Edit Category" to save your changes.
To delete a Category, click on the "delete" link under the "Options" column for the Category that you want to delete.
It will open a popup asking if you are sure you want to delete the following Category. To delete the Category, click on the "Delete" button.
