Why does my ‘Wanted’ post keep disappearing?


Recommended Posts

On two occasions, I’ve placed wanted ads (for spare alloy wheels) in the ’Parts Wanted’ section of the site and on both occasions, the ad has been removed in under 24h.

 

No warning. No PM telling me I’ve omitted a critical detail. No obvious rule break.

 

 What’s happening please, admin?

Hi Ben

 

From what I can see you’ve to date, submitted only one advert in the Car Parts - Wanted section which was submitted yesterday.  All adverts have to be approved by a moderator once they’ve been submitted and we do ask you to be patient and allow 24hrs for approval although usually it’s much quicker.  The advert will not show up live until approved. 
 

If an advert doesn’t meet the requirements (mostly applies to For Sale adverts lacking key photo info) then it won’t be approved and the moderator can just delete it without any warning or notification (read our Classifieds rules in FAQ section for this info), however I do always take the time to PM the member to advise.

In your case your Wanted Pretoria advert was simply awaiting approval so it hasn’t disappeared.  If you look under the 3 lines menu (top of forum header on any page) you should see Classifieds in the menu and that has a sub menu to show you your adverts (My adverts).  You should see any adverts you’ve submitted listed there.  


Yesterday I was on a long haul flight and travelling so offline for much of the day (and with a -6 hour time difference) so the advert wasn’t immediately approved.  It’s that time of year! lol. 
 

I’ve looked in your submitted adverts and there is only the one so I’m not sure what happened to the other advert you mention. Perhaps it didn’t get submitted properly? 
 

Anyway, the advert you have submitted is now approved now and live.  So it wasn’t too long a wait.  
 

Good luck sourcing those Prets. 👍

Thanks Neil. 😊   Currently enjoying a cup of tea in the serenity of a very very early morning (adjusting to time difference) in balmy Mexico.  

Where in Mexico?

 

Had some great hols in Riviera Maya and back in Tijuana/Mexicali and Guadalajara on a business trip in a couple of weeks

We’re in Playa Mujeres.   Been to Mexico a few times over the years, including same place we are now and and also Riviera Maya and Tulum, amongst others.  All really fab hols, love Mexico!  
 

Any time to enjoy some downtime in your upcoming trip or is it all business?

Got the weekend in Guadalajara, but been there before so will probably work at the hotel with a couple of hours by the pool.

 

Visiting three Tequilla distilleries the second week, still work but will be trying a few decent ones at the end of the site visits 😎
