Guest V64 Posted July 1, 2008 Share #1 Posted July 1, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Is anyone responsible for 'maintaining' this section - or is it entirely up to the advertisers to remove their entry? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Hi Guest V64, Take a look here Buy and Sell Section. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Ivar B Posted July 1, 2008 Share #2 Posted July 1, 2008 I don`t know, but you have a point. I have on numerous occasions asked sellers about advertised equipment which, it turns out, has been sold a long time ago. Sellers should remove their ads when the item is sold.

biglouis Posted July 1, 2008 Share #3 Posted July 1, 2008 ...maybe the ads should be for a fixed term, say 30 days at which point they should elapse unless they are actively continued..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter_n Posted July 2, 2008 Share #4 Posted July 2, 2008 On the photo.net classifieds you can select the length of your "for sale" posting and the forum software takes care of the removal on the date you specify. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest V64 Posted July 9, 2008 Share #5 Posted July 9, 2008 Hello there - would anyone from site administration care to comment? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted July 10, 2008 Share #6 Posted July 10, 2008 I am a moderator, not an administrator, so do not have the means to adjust lengths of adverts or even delete old ones. The administrator and moderators cannot read every post, so it's best to drop admin a PM if you need specific advice or have a functionality issue. At present, it is down to the individual posting the advert to remove it when appropriate. I will "report" this thread so that Andreas is alerted to this issue.

LUF Admin Posted August 27, 2008 Share #7 Posted August 27, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Better late than never... I found the reason why old ads were not deleted - I had to activate a special script that cleans up once every day. Now you'll find only current ads in the Classifieds...

imported_peter_m Posted August 27, 2008 Share #8 Posted August 27, 2008 Andreas, Is there a way one can renew an add when they expire? Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spylaw4 Posted August 27, 2008 Share #9 Posted August 27, 2008 I just got a special PM saying my ad had been up for 30 days and would go unless I clicked on a link to renew. So something seems to be happening ok. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUF Admin Posted August 28, 2008 Share #10 Posted August 28, 2008 Is there a way one can renew an add when they expire Now that the script is running you should receive an email before the ad runs out that allows you to renew the ad without further costs. If this doesn't work, please let me know! Best regards from Bonn Andreas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
imported_peter_m Posted October 2, 2008 Share #11 Posted October 2, 2008 Hi Andreas, Seams like something isn't working right yet, I didn't get a notice that my add is about to expire. Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
