How to re-post?

Post by greenhornet »

How do you re-post after 7 days? Just start a new post? Do I have to delete the original post first? Is there a re-post button?

There is no spiffy re-post tool.. start a new thread, and copy/paste any valid information from your old post to the new.

You do not have to delete the old post at all.. it will fall off the boards in 21 days or so.

2+2=5 for sufficiently large values of 2.

If you don't have your Location listed in your User Control Panel, why not take a second and update it? It will let your trading partners know where you are from the beginning.

I use the Unofficial Porkuslime Trading Guidelines - if you have way less refs.. you ship first.

Folks I am awaiting a ref from.. Zack

I do find it useful to edit the text of my old post with a link to the new one though. Eliminates confusion and people trying to trade for things I no longer have. :)

My suggestion is type the ad in word pad if you have links to pics, or notepad if you don't.
Then edit the document as things are sold or traded.

Then, just copy & paste.

It helps out when B-town hiccups and you lose your entire post and have to retype the entire ad.

If you only have the original post, just highlight/select it, and copy it to a document, then post it again; with any changes.

Hope this helps.
