Hi Rod,
I feel your pain…been there before. First “Log in,” which can be found toward the top of any page listed at the top of the site:
home, marketplace, forum, calendar, registry, jobs, listening room
You want to get to “My account.” You can find that link on each of the pages of the main tabs at the top of the pages:
home, marketplace, calendar, registry, jobs, listening room
Notice I did not list “forum,” because for some reason, it ain’t there.
So you click on one of those main tabs at the top of the main trumpetherald.com page and look toward the top of the next page and click on “My account.” Notice that it replaces “Log in” on all of the pages, except for the forum page (where “Log in” is merely replaced by “Log out.”)
More specifically to find “My account,”…
home, marketplace, and registry have “My account” link in the middle of the page toward the top;
calendar, jobs, and listening room have “My account” link close to the left side of the page toward the top.
I’m not sure why the differences, but they is what they be.
At this point, notice that the left side of the page remains the same as the home page and does not change, but the right side of the page displays links related to your account. To place an ad in marketplace, click on the bottom “Click here” link.
When you get to the next page, notice the information toward the upper left section of the page. It has a link “Place a new ad,” which is kind of small, but it’s there. To the right of that link is another link, “edit your security information,” where you can enter a security phrase. I can’t recall if having a security phrase is mandatory or not to actually place an ad, since it’s been a few years since I first placed an ad, but that's where you'd add it. So when you click on “Place a new ad,” you’ll notice the new page is labelled toward the upper left as “Place a classified ad” and is pretty self-explanatory from there. Try to always select the “Category” directly below those words, so you don’t overlook that step. I don’t know what the marketplace manager has to do when we (I) don’t select the right category, but he/she seems to catch it and change it when necessary. Maybe they have some administrative web page settings to make these adjustments automatically when necessary. I’ve personally seen the category change with my ads when I’ve overlooked this step. I would imagine the manager would appreciate it if we would kindly observe all steps. Notice the specific link for reducing your picture size, which I’ve had to do with some ads, but not all.
Hope this helps! |
