Thread: Disappearing classifieds

I'm probably not smart enough to place an ad. I've re-added the same ads 4 times as of today. When I hit submit - it displays the ad with the following errors:
Quantity = 0 - I see no field to edit for this.
Price = best offer. integer numbers entered, integers w/ decimal have all been tried.
Conus = unchecked (was checked when submitted.

Then, the ads simply disappear.

Perhaps someone has seen this and can let me know how to prevent it from continuing?

I cant help, never placed an add for myself, but you will probably have a better chance if you place your question in Site Help, Comments, and Suggestions - Straight Razor Place Forums . Good luck.

Good idea. I moved the thread into that forum. Can't help with the problem though. Someone who may be able to will be along.

I had the same thing happen. You need to start the ad from the top most level. Do not go into a sub forum to place the ad.

From:
http://straightrazorplace.com/classifieds/

click place an ad:
http://straightrazorplace.com/classi...oadproduct.php

If you do it from that link it will work.

If you do it in the sub-forum it will give the results you mention.

example:
http://straightrazorplace.com/classi...duct.php?cat=3
See the ?cat=3 that means I am in the straight razor sub-forum when i click place an ad.

It's a bug.

Let me know if it works for you using.

They're gone again now - will try the new method.

This is a recurring problem that we are aware of, but haven't sorted out yet. Thanks for letting us know it's happening again.

If you ever place an ad and all the fields go to 0, they seem to always be the ones to disappear. Please let us know right away, so we can try to look and see what's happening before they vanish.

It is quite frustrating. I have had adds with quantity 0. I have had ads that leave the price area blank or at 0. The classifieds seem to be quite broke at the moment.

I tried adding the ad from the classified header page - not sub-forum. They're gone again. This is the 6th time.

Yeah I had two ads for hones that supposedly had 8 days left before they were to expire and they are gone as of this morning. The classifieds need some TLC.

Sorry that didn't work for you. It must be getting worse.
