Post subject:  HOW TO SIGN UP FOR CLASSIFIEDS (STEP BY STEP)

Hi folks!
In the last few weeks I have been asked by several people how to
sign up for the OLF classifieds section. I admit, its a little cumbersome so I am
going to post a step by step here.

There are 5 simple steps.


Step 1
Click on either of the classifieds banners found above on the forum header.
I circled them in RED below to show what they look like.

Step 4 Click (GO)

You will be directed to a Paypal page. Complete and submit and you are DONE!

You will now automatically have access to the classifieds section which can be found in the
Luthiers Forum board index page.

Thanks!
Lance

But, how do you know when subscription is up?

You should get Email reminders automatically.

To my knowledge, I've never received such an email. And I want to support this site. My suggestion would be to cut off acsess to classifieds as a sure reminder. Wouldn't offend mean the least. Then I'dknow for sure to get it taken care of. Or, fix the email thing, or, send PMs (much better idea)

I have always received emails in a timely fashion before my subscription was up.

Good to know Bob. The classifieds program was a custom made add on to the phpBB forum software.
Its always been a little glitchy. I have been able to keep up with it though just by going in to the back end of the forum and adding it to a user if its not automatically added. Why some don't get the email notice I am not sure. A guess might have something to do with the email address for either the User OLF email and or paypal email. Just a guess tho.

I followed all the steps and still cannot open the classified page. I just get looped back to the confirm payment button, which I have already done. I. Got the notification from PayPal of the transaction. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
BradHall, new member.

UPDATE: all is working this morning. Thank you.

Here is a dumb question. I just signed up in the classified section and when I looked through it I didn't see any guitars for sale, just builders stuff.. Am I missing something?

Luthiers = stringed instrument makers/repairers.

Seems like a reasonable question. Do people sell some of the guitars that they build?

Description of this section includes
Quote:
for members to find great deals or sell items that are no longer needed


Cant recall ever seeing any finished guitars advertised in the classifieds.
Occasionally some part built, unfinished/abandoned projects.
Rarely, if ever, heard of luthiers buying newly finished guitars - most couldn't afford to!
I hate to remind you, and its probably not fair, we have probably all been a bit hasty and not read something properly before jumping the gun. but was it not you who said "Here is a dumb question"
