We're going to do some quick fixes based on folks' suggestions in the next couple of days hopefully:

  • Members can only post an ad or on an ad thread if they signed up for CATs
  • For sale and wanted will both link to landing pages with further links to categories
  • Threads to be listed by date/time of OP so aren't bumped up list even when new post added
  • Forsale and wanted threads won't appear on active conversations

We'll make these changes in the next few days and see how we go. If they don't improve things then we'll look at doing something more fundamental/ drastic - either a tech solution or a pull it altogether solution.

Cheers,
MNHQ

Will check with Tech but don't see why we shouldn't be able to set this up.

Hi, SL, at the top of this page there's a "contact a mumsnetter" link in the blue bar. If you click that, you get to the signup page.

It means for sale and wanted will be split into subject categories eg pushchairs, cloth nappies, so it's easier to find what you're looking for.

Thanks for the offers of moderation - we're not going down that route right now but may do in the future if these changes don't make a difference.

Yes agreed CD - we'll make that a rule so if folks do it more than once we'll get tough.

twoplusonemakesthree this won't really work if the for sale items belong in different categories and in away maybe it would be better if each item were listed as a title which would make the list easily searchable?
