    Not really necessary...if people just complete their "location" field on their account...it will solve a lot of issues :sex:

    Is there no way that this can be made into a mandatory field that has to be filled in.

    I don't really like the idea of a forced pop up reminding members to enter their location, but it can be done I guess. Perhaps we should try a mandatory template for classifieds first? Will see what I can come up with over weekend.

    Hi RC
    A mandatory field / Pop Up when posting a New thread just in the "Trading Post" would help.
    Thanks for having a look.

    I think the Template might be a good idea.
    another form uses the one below and it seems to be working very well for them.

    the good thing about APSA is most things are not mandatory, so lets keep it that way.. however it makes sense and a given to give your address or rather the area.

    I dont like the idea of forced pop ups...each to their own I guess.
    Why change something that aint broke...the classifieds section has been running smoothly for ages.

    Anyhow...guess my old stock will from now on only be available at swop meet...or Gumtree :p

    I think this is a better suggestion for the classifieds. Some people just don't want others viewing their profiles and sometime set them as private to certain set members, you know. Just saying.

    Why not make it a simple template, the rest can be discussed over PM to the seller.

    Agreed. Previous list is a tad too long.
