Great Site - Guys Love It... Keep Up The Good Work...

Could I suggest this as an Option;

As a structure for the classified's why not have a

Global Setions for; Cars for Sale, ICE, Wanted, Alloys & A New One For Non Specific Items, Or Items That Dont Fit In any of the others...

Sub Section for MK1, MK2, MK3, MK4, MK5, MK6, Passat If You Must!!    :grin: Etc Etc

And If Demands Require's - Then Do Sub Pages For The Mk's But Make Them Simple - Body, Interior, Engine.

It Adds a few more pages but will make it much easier to find the relative parts that people maybe looking for...

HTH

....and even more of a nightmare to moderate etc. Some people can't even put the correct adverts in the main sections, e.g. wanted ads in the for sale board, so how are people going to get the correct section, in the correct sub board of a global section ! :grin: Would be funny to watch mind.

All this is easily avoided and simple if people just put what the part and mark it's for in the title heading. :wink:

Now that's a couple of good ideas that we should think about doing. :afro:

I agree but some folks are just Dumb and at least if it was split the way I suggested there is no need to put the Mk's in the title as they would at least have to pick the correct section to list in the 1st Inst....

There maybe some confusion if the Dumb ass dont know what Mk it is.... But I think it would improve it over what there is currently... Not that I have any issues but it does Pee me off when you have no idea what some Pi11ock is selling at least this way if I want Mk2 parts I go to the MK2 section....

The other option could be to list the Relevent Classified MK's with in the Forum sections... Then existing Mods can keep an eye on it....

It does make sense... If you think about it Logically....

Sorry if it seems that I am trying to teach you guys how to suck eggs...

Appreciate your ideas, I agree that it could do with some work. I have an idea to do the whole golfgti classifieds thing in a much better way entirely, the current forum layout doesn't really have enough flexibility to do it really well.

No worries dude, no offence taken. I didn't say it was a bad idea, just not that workable and easily solved if people selling just thought about their adverts a bit more. It would be down to jv and/or toph anyway as they have the power, not the lowly globals or mods.
