Yeah, Barry. You knew my feelings on it too. And I have to say that should work perfectly. A snapshot of latest adverts will also prompt people to have a quick look at what else is around.

Great idea Barry
Only one question, can the ads be randomly rotated ? Seems a little unfair that a non-member may pay a £1 and have their ad on display up there for maybe several days or more.....and the older ads placed by members don't get shown unless peeps go into the classifieds.
just a thought
yeah, they can be... but then its not the latest items which kinda defeats the purpose of doing it

I think this would be a good idea toOriginally Posted by Spirit
Reason being is, i know it's displaying the latest ads . But if i place an Ad now ! And then in the next 10 mins 3 others place Ads, mine will no longer be displayed Rotation sounds like a great option !!
1 more thing ? If it is done on rotation, and someone hasn't placed a picture in there ad ! Will a description still be displayed or will it be Blank ?
it would be a still image Glenn, im might change the wanted image to a "no image" image.
im in two minds about this random vs latest thing.
I know the hits the classifieds gets from the outside, although i will have to review this after this month/week to see the correlation between hits from "search" (new posts) and hits from outside (google). (In other words i need to see the usage this new feature gets)
This new feature under new posts is really only for you guys, and you would be surprised at how many people don't actually use new posts! (which is something im adding to the "site-guide") So if you guys want it, fair enough but again if you see the latest ads it will still prompt you to go take a look, and while your there, like any website/search engine you will browse that area. Additionally there is a random ads block on the classifieds main page anyways, which i could change or add so that some random adverts are shown on the side block (currently only one)
so yeah, /shrug personally i feel it needs to be latest, even if i made it the latest 8 adverts (i will be removing the images so that it only shows the name, date posted and who by... kinda like how new posts currently looks.)
That may be a good compromiseOriginally Posted by BraindG
