Popular Post The Computer Audiophile Posted May 25, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2020 Hi Guys, I created a little classifieds section in response to some requests for additional capabilities and a number of people emailing me over the years to mark their items sold. The classifieds section can be accessed from the top menu on desktop or the mobile menu on a phone. It's pretty simple now because I don't want to make it overly complex. It's also free, for everyone, forever. A really cool part is that listed items also automatically appear in the Buy & Sell forum. Browse the Classifieds or browse the forum, you'll get to the same stuff. Post questions, feedback, or whatever in this thread. Here's a link to the new area - https://audiophilestyle.com/classifieds/ kennyb123, auricgoldfinger and bobfa 2 1 Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment

It would be good in this scenario so mark it as Pending or Under Offer in the same way I can when the offer comes via the Classified. I trued to make the classifieds as simple as possible. Adding complexity for edge cases is something I won't do right now. In the days of the traditional buy & sell forum, you could add a message at the bottom of the thread saying Sale Pending or whatever. You can still do that now or just ask the person who PM'd you to use the proper Offer button in the classified. 10 hours ago, BigAlMc said: When a Classified is updated as Sold or I guess even No Longer For Sale, then it would be good for the forum listing in this Buy & Sell section to be updated accordingly. I will see if I can make this happen. Ideally, one would browse the classifieds and only use the forum area for questions and answers about products s/he is interested. This would remove the need, but I still would like to make this happen. BigAlMc 1 Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment

I assume so, but “sold” seems to me to be a more straightforward way of expressing that than is “completed.” Completed can mean sold, item not for sale anymore, or nobody purchased it in a certain period of time. Completed items will list the reason on the top of each listing. Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment
The Computer Audiophile Posted June 29, 2020 Author Share Posted June 29, 2020 I just created a view for Classifieds in the activity stream. This should remove the issue of people unable to easily browse the Classifieds without entering each section. To see this, use the link pictured below, from the Activity menu.

Some of the items I see show "Sold" at the subject line, but I failed to find this feature in my recent post that were post by the Classifieds after changing status to "Completed". There isn't a simple way to do this for now. I added this to your listing for now. elan120 1 Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment
The Computer Audiophile Posted August 19, 2020 Author Share Posted August 19, 2020 Hi Guys, I enabled comments below each item for sale in the Classifieds section. Please use these comment sections to post questions or whatever you wish, about a specific item for sale. I will disable comments in the Buy Sell forum and eventually hide this area. The new Classifieds section offers all the functionality of this sub forum, I believe, and more, so it doesn't make sense to have two areas. In addition, we don't have to deal with marking threads SOLD after the classified has been sold etc... Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment

For some reason, the pictures of the DALIs show up in the SVS ad! I've tried deleting them, but that didn't help. Can you do anything on your end? Thank you. Done.
