A while ago I mentioned some new software that we would be installing for selling instead of using the forums. Well a test has been installed and we would like you to use it for all your new offers to sell.

There is only one ad in it, but it is fake. Please DO NOT add any more fake ads, just real ones. We need to see how this works in real situations.

If this test works well, we will switch to it for almost all our buy and sell needs and the forums that used to support that will disappear.

Please give as much feedback in this thread as you can and please do give critical feedback

What Roger said, but let me add that you can have multiple ads per add. Only one will show up in the bar, but all the pictures will in the actual ad.

Linking pictures?????? Have to talk to photopost

Steve,

I like the concept and from what I understand this has has been out there a long time as a request from the user community as well. I agree that having the button right on the top menu is a better way to take users right to the For Sale area. I'm not too sure about the left hand panel, the old message board layout worked pretty good for me- except that there were no thumbnails to see what was being sold.

Anyway, good idea and I know you are working hard to make this the best.


Thanks,

-david

I guess the "hot deals" will have to go in member's announcements now. This was one of the best features to me of old forum. My two cents worth, adjusted for inflation. Bruce

Or the Found for Sale/Hot Deals forum. http://www.ncwoodworker.net/forums/f...splay.php?f=77

I think it's back

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

How many ads can a guy have? I don't want to hog up the display area most I've seen displayed was 4.

Thanks

As many as you want The display area will show the 12 most recent. Don't worry about hogging up the area. The system can handle 10s of thousands of ads if we want.
