Simply identify yourself by typing your Username and Password and all of your profile information will appear on screen. You may edit any information (except your Username). |
Censoring Posts |
|
The Site does censor certain words that may be posted; however, this censoring is not an exact science, and is being done based on the words that are being screened, so certain words may be censored out of context. By default, words that are censored are replaced with asterisks. |
Lost Password |
|
Changing a lost password is simple, assuming that e-mail features are turned on for this classified ad forum. All of the pages that require you to identify yourself with your Username and Password carry a "lost Password" link that you can use to have a code e-mailed instantly to your e-mail address of record that will allow you to create a new password. Because of the Encryption that we use for your password, we cannot tell you what your password is. |
Can I be notified by e-mail when someone responds to my ad? |
|
Yes, the Subscription feature allows you to subscribe to the entire Classified Board, individual Categories, Classifications and/or Listings, depending on what the administrator of this site allows. You will receive an e-mail notifying you of a post that has been made to the Category/Classification/Listing that you have subscribed to. There are four levels of subscription:
- Across the Classified Board Wide Subscription
You can subscribe to the entire Classified Board, you'll get a notification for any posts made within all the classified ad forums inside the board.
- Category Wide Subscription
You can subscribe to an entire Category, which will notify you when any posts are made in any Classification of the particular Category as well as any Listings in all the Classifications.
- Classification Wide Subscription
If you don't want to subscribe to an entire Category, you can subscribe to a single Classification. This will notify you of any Listings posted within that Classification as well as all replies, within a Listing.
- Listing Wide Subscription
More conveniently, you can subscribe to just an individual Listing. You will be notified of any post made within that Listing. This is where most Subscriptions are made. Once you post an ad in the classifieds, this is the level of subscription that you will be notified by email when someone replies to your ad.
Each level of subscription is optional. The administrator can turn On/Off each level of subscription for each Category/Classification/Listing.
To Subscribe or Unsubscribe from any level of subscription, you can use the "My Subscriptions" link, located near the top of each page to manage your subscriptions. Or you can click on the subscribe/unsubscribe icons ( ) for that Category/Classification/Listing you want to subscribe/unsubscribe to/from.
