Improvements to Castanet classifieds

A veritable potpourri. Everything but the kitchen sink goes here. Sometimes even the kitchen sink.

first off - LOVE Castanet, (*uh... don't like those editorial style cartoons tho...) but as for the classifieds, I find I almost always have problems getting AND STAYING logged in. Not sure how to diagnose that, but there's a huge problem for me, and frustrating. Also I'd love the option to return to my last page I was looking at, rather than having to go through the menus again...
Other than that, great job!

Thanks!

I +1 this for sure.

Rental catagories would be more user friendly if they were listed separately by location. Penticton, Summerland, Osoyoos.
Thanks for the opportunity to send our feedback. Cheers

Love using Castanet... every city should have one. One small change I'd like to see is being able to put a 'wanted' item in the applicable section rather than the Wanted section down below. I know I never look at them and I also never get responses to my wanted ads..
I also dislike having to backtrack to the beginning after logging in when I find something I want to respond to. Its very annoying going back and looking for the same ad all over again.
Kudos to Castanet for looking to improve!

I love Castanet classifieds! For the most part, everything is fine.

I would like to see a ski/wakeboard boats category under boats for sale. Makes it easier to search and most of the ohter types of boats are already seperated.

Thank you, and keep up the good work Castanet

Hi Troy!

I'd love to see an option to view items from all 3 cities all at once.

In real estate, put farms and acreages separate from lots. Farms and acreages more often have buildings or improvements and are rural. Lots are usually bare and urban.
Thanks

I have noticed this as well. It happens quite often.

Hi! I LOVE the classifieds on here, I have bought and sold loads and loads of good deals! My only special request right now is, in the sport section, under alpine skis, also in snowboards, can you put a child's option. We are currently looking for gear for our kids, so going through all of the adult equipment, trying to pick out what is kids and what is not is sometimes tricky. just an idead, keep up the GREAT work!!!

I see 662 ads right now in the adult clothing section for the Kelowna edition. Perhaps you are looking at Penticton or Vernon edition of the Classifieds.
