In Process: Closing classified ads?

[diversteve]

I'm looking at my watched threads and I don't have the edit button.

You might have to look in the forum list view itself - that's where I copied that from.

You can't edit a post after a short period of time, a day or two. Wish we could.

The edit window for all users is currently set to 24hrs.

You can only close a thread you started.

That's what I'm trying to do. None of my threads have the edit button.

Then this really isn't a solution to the original question that was asked. More often than not it's going to take longer than 24 hours for something to sell.

So can we or can't we close our own classified threads, like we used to be able to do?

I wasn't replying to you on that but DIY which is why I quoted his post. The 24hr. edit window is to make changes to your post content.

You can close your classifieds threads anytime in the future like you could on the old site.

Turtle, help me test this out. Go post a test thread in one of the classified forums. Need to see if we can change status after 24 hours on a new thread.

Can we still close threads in the Classified section? Thought on the old site design it was under Thread Tools. Can't locate similar function with the new design. Maybe I missing it?

Thanks in advance...

We're working on it/it may be resolved now. See this thread for details: http://www.scubaboard.com/community/threads/closing-classified-ads.520689/

Sorry I didn't catch that.

How do you close your own classified?

I don't see anyone to do it on any of my old threads or on a new test thread that I just posted.

Just posted a new one. I can confirm that even on a new classified post, there is no way to close it. Thread tools is there, but close is not one of the options.
