Question!

Hey! How do you find location id's and category id's? Thanks!!
@hassanshaikley You can find the locationId/categoryId values you want by performing a search and looking at the POST request parameters or the URL you are redirected to.
For example, after setting my location to Ottawa and selecting the "cars & vehicles" category, Kijiji redirects me to http://www.kijiji.ca/b-cars-vehicles/ottawa/c27l1700185. The last part of the URL (c27l1700185) is formatted as c[categoryId]l[locationId]. So in this case, categoryId is 27 and locationId is 1700185.
Perform your custom search on Kijiji and then check the URL for the corresponding Id values. Someone else has asked this question as well (issue #2). I can add something to the readme about this.
