I just swapped over to the new classifieds system. Any old link to a classified ad will no longer work because the ids all changed.

I tried refreshing ever page as i went to the classifieds. starting at the home page.still having the same problem. no thumbnails asnd unable to open.Is this about the registered thing posted at the top of the site page?

ok found the problem.it has something to do with my firewall.

I am also unable to view the classifieds, The layout comes up fine, and the text portion of the index, but no pictures, or active link to the ads themselves. Is this what you were experiencing humfrydog? If so can you be more specific in your solution, I have Norton, but nothing in the firewall settings is jumping out at me.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Make sure you are going to http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/ and not some subpage.

this may be a bit late, but since the classifieds section is being revamped, how about sorting options? things like year or price instead of just by date posted. just a thought... maybe i spend too many hours a day hunting through classified ads for my bus. it has to be out there somewhere...

with my nortons firewall i needed to reset ad blocking. you may need to do this.
Quote: bring up the main norton page.find the one that says ad blocking and click on it.click on the configure button in the lower right corner.uncheck ad blocking and leave popup blocking checked.then go back to the classifieds and refresh the pages.that should fix it.

hope this helps! :D
