Trading Post Page?

[Doyle Phillips]

Bill, would it be feasible to set up a page for buying selling trading?

Of course each notice would have to be posted individually. But it would be nice if it were possible to somehow find all items and then sort them alphabetically. Thanx, Doyle

Hi Doyle,

That's an idea worth considering but there is a draw back as well as items on a new 'forum' may never be looked at - readers would have to actually switch to it in the General tab

General

Trading Post
Items for sale/trade/barter/wanted

Perhaps there is someway I can make a blinking icon when new items are posted - I'll look into it.

In the short term you can use the Search box at the bottom of the message page and search for "sale" and most posts come up.

Bill, when one logs-in, the General tab is automatically displayed with Guanajuato Forums below it, clickable.

Could there not be a second clickable link just below Guanajuato Forums reading "BuySellRentTrade Guanajuato" or something like that? With only two choices a logged-in member would be pretty certain to sometimes check the second one and/or post to it. --d

There is a simple solution. My GTOlist bookmark is set to:

http://www.gtolist.com/forum/mybb1/searc...n=getdaily

That shows me all posts from that day, regardless of which forum they were posted to.

For people who don't check daily, setting a bookmark to:

http://www.gtolist.com/forum/mybb1/searc...ion=getnew

will show all unseen posts, regardless of which forum they were posted to.

lol...I'll take the job!

There are links to "View New Posts" and "View Today's Posts" near the top of each forum page. I just took the targets from those, which are not date-specific, and used them to create bookmarks.
