bplinson 30th November 2005, 09:22 That is where you put in the information about what you are selling. Give it a try.
Rawhide 17th September 2006, 03:57 I tried to puy a for sale ad and a wanted ad in classifieds, said I didn't have permission. Please explain. Thanks!

Well....I know you need 15 posts to post pictures so perhaps it applies to the classifieds also?
punkmxcn 1st August 2007, 07:27 i tried to post some things on the classifieds and it said i exceeded the maximum of 5 ads??? why's that limit? I've got a lot of extra parts to get rid of....

Why'd you necro this, it's more than a year old. You could try combining classified ads, i see that often, just sell multiple parts under one ad.
tobbilla78 25th September 2007, 09:15 I think they need about 10 to 12 post for picture posting.................
tobbilla78 25th September 2007, 09:16 Have you get the permission or not
Pulchritude 7th March 2008, 18:38 Trying to put an item up for selling in the classifieds, but when I go to the Classified section, I cannot find any button or selection that gives me the option to post. Am I missing something?
ScreamingEag1e 7th March 2008, 18:41 The function could be shut down for the big server switch this weekend. Try again on Monday and see what you get, then pm Bert if it still doesn't work.
Pulchritude 7th March 2008, 18:41 Ok. Forgot about that. Thanks!
karlkcfi 18th June 2008, 11:58 I am trying to post pictures with my for sale ads. Nothing happens. What am i doing wrong?
hog wylde 21st November 2008, 02:37 Am I the only one that has this problem. When I go into the classified section and click on next page at the bottom, I get the same ads. It doesn't matter what page # I click on 1-49, I get the same 9 adds. If I change the setting to 18 ads per/page, It works fine?. I have been visiting and always thought there was very little posted for sale. Only because I have my forward control; extensions listed did I realise this. I couldn't find my add, so I started screwing around until I found it!
Likemlouder 21st November 2008, 04:16 yes i have the same problem. i have to click on each one twice before it works. i will try changing to the 18 item thank's:doh

I get it too. It's so annoying I rarely use the classifieds. I'm pretty sure it's been reported before.

I'm glad its not just me, I was starting to think that I'm on crack or something

I just went into the classifieds and I think its not doing this anymore. Nothing changed on my computer so maybe it is fixed?

Click 'Place An Ad': far right of menu bar at top.

The forum is awesome but the "Classifield Ad" section really sucks.
Mac
Folkie 19th May 2009, 00:22 In what way?
The forum is awesome but the "Classifield As" section really sucks.
Mac
Why do you say that? I've posted several items there and have not had a problem.
If there's something you are unsure how to post, please ask rather than saying the section sucks.

Sorry if I hurt your feelings, maybe you should start from the begining and read some of the reponse members have posted. This section (The Classifields) of the forum needs some work, it's all I'm trying to say. The phase "It Sucks" it's just a figure of speech, again sorry if you (or anyone else) took it personally.
Mac
You didn't hurt my feelings at all.
Most of the complaints you are reading here are
a year or more old. The bugs have been ironed out
afaik. I posted an item last week and had no trouble.
So, I'm here to help and if you or anyone has any trouble
posting or navigating in the section then nows the time to speak up.
Likemlouder 19th May 2009, 02:30 i tried posting picture for my ad could not get them to take. so i posted them in the ebay and classified section. then i went back and worked with it awhile and figured out the images just needed to be resized. after being on here for over a year. i am beginning to get the hang of it. but for a first time user it can be pretty tough. i think that is why so many adds don't have images. either the section has improved or i have not sure which :)
KillJoy 19th May 2009, 02:43 I dislike the Classified Section. I, PERSONALLY, like having a Classified Forum. That way, it can be bumped and folks who use the "New Posts" Link would see them as they were created / modified. Also, comments on items for sale are fun! :D
KillJoy
Thanks Likemlouder for posting that.
I understand that some people may have difficulty realizing
that a pic needs to be resized, or where to click to post an ad,etc.
Exactly why I say if an individual doesn't tell us exactly what
trouble they are having then we cannot help.
Anytime anyone has a problem using a feature here, contact a
Moderator and ask for help. Thx

If I can make a suggestion... when one is trying to sell/buy an item the opposite of resizing a picture is what needs to be done in order for the buyer to see in detail what he/she is buying/selling.
