It has been tough getting the thing back to look professional - I think I have it - there are two ads up now. Sorry for any inconvenience but the it was (and still is) a problem with these guys from Pakistan posting stupid work at home things.  I hope they can read English and get the point that I will not let their ads go through.  The robot ad postings seem to be stopped by the new software version.

I registered and the system worked. All categories for ads were empty, no ads. Maybe later.

Thanks for setting this up and bringing the classifieds back!

I had a big problem with the installation - if you created a user ID, you will have to do it over again - I could not get back into the database myself this evening and had no choice but to dump it and start over, there may have been two entries, I will try letting people post ads without my intervention - I hope I have it back tonight.

Mark wondering why I am doing this.

I am testing the latest version of Noah's Classified ads - the registration and login is a little harder, you must register and wait for an email with your password in it.? You also must type a scramble - de-scramble at the bottom of each page - Also I will not let anyone post ads directly, they will wait approval from me - so this may mean that your ad does not go up right away but when I have time to approve them.? I hope this does not make too much trouble for those who want to use the ads but it looks like the only way we can keep spammers from covering the ads with crap.

Remember - you must wait for an email with your password before you can post or login.? You register - wait - get password in email then login - got that!

Let me know how it goes if you try posting something.

The ads are at this LINK for now
