For Sale & stuff

[Shewie]

Is there any way we can have the new "For Sale" tags enabled for editing after a sale ?

It would be nice to be able to change it from "For Sale" to "Sold" if possible ?

[Humpback]

Misread the title, I read it as you had stuff for sale and thought I'd get in quickly! Anyway I agree.

Not really mate, BB members only

[Ahjno]

You're not into knives than? Shame on you mate!

Copy of the post by Martyn:

Go to your thread/advert in the portobello road section, on the first post of the thread/advert click on "edit post" click on "go advanced" and you should see the option to change the prefix here...



Select the option you want from the drop-down menu and click "Save Changes".

Done.

I don't get the same prefix box on this forum as I do on BB, when trying to change said prefix.

Me neither Tam (not that i use BB, I just don't get the option on here)

If you start a new thread in swaps the prefix box is there for me.

glad it isn't just me then! - I spent a fair few minutes trying to change the prefix on my recent sales thread..... you get the options when you start the thread but not when you go to edit after the item/s are sold

I'll have a look at the settings, it's not going to be for a few days though so feel free to prompt me if I'm not commenting back on this by next week.

[Shewie]

Any news on this one Tony?

[Toddy]

I'll flag it in the Mods too, Rich

cheers,
M

[Shewie]

Thanks Mary

It seems to work okay in the FM classifieds but not in the open forum

[Tony]

what's it like now?

[Shewie]

Still the same for me boss

[Dogoak]

Any update on this please?

[Stew]

Bumpety-bump. I've got a few to change the status of now and getting messages from people not realising stuff has gone.

[Tony]

ok, I'm testing this and have no problem.

Going through the stages...
You create a sales thread that has the prefix 'For Sale'
Thread progresses and you sell (swap etc) item and then you click on the OP edit button and you make sure you're on 'advanced' for the editor.
you then have a drop down for the prefix's and select one and save the changes.

Can you guys tell me at what stage this isn't working for you? Cheers

[southey]

I found I couldn't change it either after a few hours or a reply in the thread.

[Shewie]

Still the same for me Tony

If I go into edit and then advanced, the only boxes I get are the "reason for editing" and "thread title"

The drop down prefix box is there for me in the FM classifieds, just not in the regular classifieds.

Maybe I should start a new thread and see if the changes take place?

[Shewie]

Nah, still not happening

[Stew]

Presuming it should run in the same way as British blades, I can't see it.

This is the advanced edit page I get Tony:

**nudge**

[Tony]

he he, i've looked at this a few time sand the problem is escaping me, it might be something that i've missed but i've been through things quite a bit, we've got an upgrade due soon so i'll see what happens then, it might resolve itself and if it does great, if not, I'll go at it again Sorry for the inconvenience, anyone that needs me to I can change the status (comes up for me fine)

[WULF]

Is there any update on this matter??

[Tony]

Can people please try this again for me, thanks

[Dogoak]

Hi Tony, I have just tried it on an old post of mine and.................it works!

[Dogoak]

Just tried it on another and I am glad to say THANK YOU Tony.

Just have to wait and see if folks can be bothered to change it when their items are sold!

UPDATE:- Third time unlucky, the change prefix option didn't appear

[Tony]

was it in the same forum?

[southey]

Yup, works for me Tone, Briliant, cheers chap
