Spoon_tuned Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I thought maybe splitting the for sale threads up like... Wheels/Tyres Interior Parts Chasis/Suspension Engine/Gearbox Exterior/Lighting Electronics/Audio Miscellaneous Makes it easier to find parts you maybe after maybe to much hassle but just an idea cheersaidan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jimmymac101 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 And if you have loads of random items for sale you can tag each item to come up in the correct section If that's even possible to save writing up loads of ads the different sections James Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Socks Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 So if I have 5 items for sale... of different types.. I have to make 5 different threads instead of 1? Im all for ideas, hence discussion.. Its easier from a buyers point of view, but from a sellers point of view its more work...? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Thats where this suggestion comes in. "If its even possible" And if you have loads of random items for sale you can tag each item to come up in the correct section If that's even possible to save writing up loads of ads the different sections James Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FreedomCore Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 (edited) Maybe you could set it out like a form. So add the relevant details like price, condition, name, postage and category (Tick box) of item. Then have two buttons at the bottom to post the thread or add another item. So that each item is like it's own thread. But the page would essentially be a summary of all the items your trying to sell. Then each item would be posted in the appropriate area. I know you can do this in Microsoft Access. I forgot to add that each detail would have it's own text field. Edited March 12, 2013 by FreedomCore Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arnold Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Happy with it the way it is personally Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spoon_tuned Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 This is just a suggestion guys but if it doesnt happen it doesnt happen. Maybe there could be a bundle section which means if you have a lot of things to sell you throw it up in that bit but if you only have one item to sell you categorise your item ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
redz11 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Remember there will be more posts for admins/moderators to moderate/view/review etc nice idea though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mini1.3 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I think it would be a good idea it would make life so much easier for us buyers, as for the sellers side of things it may take longer to put the items up for sale but it i easier for the buyers to find them so might help sell items aswell Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Simon Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Don't see whats wrong with the current system tbh if there got to be 3-4 pages of new posts in the for sale section every day then maybe it's needed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If the forum keeps getting bigger and bigger by the day then is it not easier to get a system running and in place now rather than later ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I think the idea is good. It helps if people forget to bump up their item as I only tend to look at the 1st page on the forsale section as Im on here daily so I should have seen everything from the day before. I can also think of times when I have seen something I wanted but did not post it on the thread then later on went back to look at it again an struggled to find it. Plus if people are selling multiple items then I dont think its much more effort to do multiple threads you need to copy and paste the template anyway. If you could do it in a format where you enter a number of items to sell then each item has a drop down menu for what section it goes in. We could also have a sold button for the owner of the thread that locks it and automatically deletes a few days later. Saving mods having to close them and also making it easier to identify what has already sold without having to go in and out of the thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spoon_tuned Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Some great ideas guys i mean it works as it is now but i think this kinda system would be good too ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Got.boost Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I think it's a great idea and if its a lot more for Admin to review than there is a lot of people on here that would love to be admin/help the club out Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JayJ Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Would it be good to limit "bump" posts to one per week on sale threads, so the recent threads would stay on the top/first page a bit longer? There's no need to bump your thread up everyday, right? :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
