I find it interesting how the threats to leave seem to infer you're going to get a better platform by leaving, Where would that be??, The RCG Classifieds that guys are threatening to go to has virtually the same format is this new one,

The old system is Gone,,, Use PMs to communicate like you have to everywhere else,, Jeez boys get over it,, Flame away

Admins,, Please add a PM link button to the ads,, that would help

What problem are you having communicating with them?

You can click on the sellers username and send them a private message.

We're aware of this and a fix is on the agenda. There's just higher priority bugs to get to right now.

Although this issue will likely be fixed soon, it is possible to Right click on the image and select "open image in new tab" and you will see the full page picture.
Hope this helps.

I am sure this has been mentioned before, but I couldn't find it.
  • I am still not a fan of the Market Place Ads ending up in the Forums. Truly need to be separated out. If we (RCU members) want to look at Market Place, we look at Market Place. If we want to only look at Forums, we don't want to see Market Place ads that we already looked at in Market Place.
  • I was on this Forum and clicked on a Members Profile Name to look at his Profile. I clicked on the "back button" to come back to this forum, but instead went to the list of ALL of the Forums, car, plane, boats, etc. Should be able to come back to where I was on this forum.
  • I was looking in Market Place today, clicked on a picture with the enlargement magnifier glass image comes up on the picture, yet can't zoom in on the picture.
I am sure there are many many more items and bugs that still need to be addressed by you and the IT techs.

The ads appearing in New Posts has been reported.

On your issue with the member name/back button, can you give more detail please? When you say "this forum" do you mean the marketplace? Can you tell me what device/browser/forum skin you were using, and step by step what you did? When I use the back button it works for me.

The magnifier issue has been reported.

Thank you

It's there. Go to the marketplace, into any category (such as the one where you posted your ad), and check the MY LISTINGS box.

Can you post a link to a post where this is happening? I see photos in all the marketplace ads. We do know we have a bug on the thumbnail zoom, but I have not seen any "blank" pictures. Also let us know your device and browser and skin.

looks like we got sub categories now.
next, someone needs to go through all the adds since the change, and keyword them to the sub category.
a job i neither want, nor will apply for.

now, if we can just set preferences we want to keep for default, and not have to do it each visit...

Good idea on the default search.

As to adding KWs to the ads... there's no way to do that. The data doesn't even exist.

Over time the new ads will have it though.

Now that they have the sub categories, any new ads will be able to choose a sub category.
Old ones will still be where they were originally posted until they expire.

yeah spidey, that is what i was referring to with the "keywords" comment above.
i guess that the original add poster will have to relist their add with the new category selected.

now that we have the categories, can we get the sub forum selections for like, jets, where it has jets classified, to point to the new market jets listings, instead of the old marketplace adds?

also, can it be set so that the listings are ONLY sorted by listing time/date chronologically, not the "as long as no one replies, it stays where it is", which allows days old stuff to be interspersed in with the newer posts.

CAN NOT list my item in buy and sell section. I have tried this on my mac and my PC. Both on FireFox and Chrome and all I get is a spinning circle. Can someone please help. I have tried many variations of listing my item and none of them work on the new site. Thanks in advance. Daniel

When people with very few forum posts try to post a link, it won't work. Perhaps that's happening to you.

Go into a category and filter by MY LISTINGS.

Default What the hell?......

What in hell have you done to the Marketplace??? It totally sucks compared to the old old which was very user friendly and easy to navigate. If it isn’t broke don’t fix it! You have totally ruined this site now! A lot of you so called “web designers “have no clue what people like and this is one prime example .The once crown jewel of RC sites is now a mess, thanks for nothing!

Hello;
The "back button" seems to be working this morning when looking at someone's profile. "This Forum" means the one we are currently chatting within and how I am communicating with you. Window 10, Internet Explorer, and I have also done with the iPhone. I Googled "Forum Skin" for definition, but not really an answer. I was in this current forum that I am chatting with you. Anyway, the problem seems to be gone.

Thank you for taking the For Sale Items out of the Forums.

I don't really understand, are you saying that the categories are taking you to the old marketplace?

I can bring up sorting by original post date to see if that's something we can do.

Edit: You can sort by "last created" in order to see the most recently listed ads, as opposed to the most recently replied to.
