    New classifieds

    New classifieds section has been added.

    Anyone with a classified in the old one will need to add their listing again, sorry.

    You can go there via this link http://www.ausfish.com.au/vforum/dbtclassifieds.php

    Or click on the Classifieds link in the blue navigation bar.


    Ads for trades and services should be put in the existing "Members Business Directory" http://www.ausfish.com.au/vforum/vbyellowpage.php


    If there are any features you feel should be added or have any problems or questions please feel free to post here.


    Here is a quick video on how to add a listing - best to watch in full screen in HD. To do this click on the Youtube Logo and go to Youtube and select Full screen

    The ad page is only for editing.

    To manage your listings you need to go into your Member control panel. Link at top right of all pages.

    Then in there you will links at the bottom left

    Classifieds Settings

    My Classifieds
    Addresses
    Postage
    Payment processors setup

    Go into each of these and setup the info required.

    Having said that, there seems to be a bug at the moment that is not displaying members classifieds once you click on the My Classifieds link. I am working on that now.

    In the mean time, if you need a listing deleted just send me a message and I will be happy take care of it for you.

    Good luck with your continued success in using the classifieds here on Ausfish. Trust you will continue to have good business from our members and guests.

    Not a bug

    Your listing just says

    I make and sell dropper sinkers 2oz (50c), 3oz (70c), 4oz (90c), 5oz ($1.10), 6oz ($1.40), 8oz ($1.60), 10oz ($1.80), 12oz ($2.00), 16oz ($2.50), 24oz ($4.00), and 32oz ($5.00).
    Phone 33541771 and ask for Barry
    You are not selling a particular item with this type of ad.
    This type of ad, not classified for sale, should be in the members business directory.
    The new classifieds are for actual individual items for sale.

    For example
    For sale - 10 x 10oz sinkers $18.00 plus postage
    Or
    10 oz sinkers - $1.80 each and buyers can buy however many they like.

    You need to make an ad for each size or bundle of sizes, etc. Otherwise you are just selling a description of the range and promoting your business, as per the description above.

    I have removed the general business ads for you so you can put up the individual items for sale.

    let me know if you need any more help

    Re: New classifieds

    Steve, I have been supplying sinkers and jigheads to Ausfish members at wholesale prices for years with similar classifieds under your old system without any problems. If I had to list each individual sinker and jighead size I would have to place over 40 individual notices in your classified section. Most of your long time members no longer use your site and now place their fishing reports in Nugget Outdoors so I will offer their members my sinkers and jigheads at wholesale prices.
    I don't run a business for profit as I am retired but only make sinkers and jigheads as a hobby and only charge the cost of production.

    Cheers
    Barry

    No problem Barry, up tp you how you want to sell them. I was just trying to help you out with info on how you can use the new system.

    Glad I was able to help you out over the past 10 years to sell to our members and guests and help you establish your business and contacts.

    Re: New classifieds

    Have just logged in with this test account that has the same membership levels, etc as you, and I can access it fine. Will check some more settings. Every member above free memebership, to stop spam and dodgy ads, should be able to view them and post on them.

    Can you go direct to this listing?
    http://www.ausfish.com.au/vforum/dbt...ng&listingid=9

    Do you see the Classifieds banner at the top of the pages, showing the listing for the "OMC SST Stainless Steel Left Hand Propeller" ?

    What error message do you get when you try to access the Classifieds here - http://www.ausfish.com.au/vforum/dbtclassifieds.php ???
