What would you like me to say in the descriptor when it prompts me for a reason for flagging it? "Thread needs to be closed because I believe item is sold"? Or should I send a message to the OP to see if they've received payment/sent it/etc. first? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/feature-tweak-closed-classifieds-now-moved-to-the-back-of-the-classifieds-section#post-862039 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 22:08:13 +0000 mrbee 862039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NaturallyCathy: We don't have any moderators yet on Hellobee... I'm thinking we have another year or two before we'll need to start building a moderation team? But once we do, we'll definitely post about it - and if the Classified get overrun before then, we'll move that timeframe up, for sure!!</p> <p>In the meantime, could definitely use help flagging listings that are mis-categorized or need to be closed... if you have time to help out on that front, that'd be great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/feature-tweak-closed-classifieds-now-moved-to-the-back-of-the-classifieds-section#post-862006 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 21:38:42 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 862006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Ensure items were properly placed in the correct categories; resolve issues with spam/repeat posts/flagged problems; make sure that when an item is sold/spoken for that the threads are closed in a timely manner (say two days and after checking with original poster) instead of being left open. That sort of thing. It would probably be an evolving job since the classifieds are so new. It would be a fun challenge. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/feature-tweak-closed-classifieds-now-moved-to-the-back-of-the-classifieds-section#post-861999 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 21:28:41 +0000 mrbee 861999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NaturallyCathy: Thanks! What would a moderator for the Classifieds do? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/feature-tweak-closed-classifieds-now-moved-to-the-back-of-the-classifieds-section#post-861994 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 21:20:53 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 861994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: If you ever need a moderator for the classifieds, I volunteer! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/feature-tweak-closed-classifieds-now-moved-to-the-back-of-the-classifieds-section#post-861969 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 20:58:02 +0000 singingbee 861969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I just realized I could close out the topic. I flagged a comment so it could get closed, but now I just went and closed it. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/feature-tweak-closed-classifieds-now-moved-to-the-back-of-the-classifieds-section#post-860702 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 20:17:16 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 860702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Awww thanks Mr. Bee :) Glad I could help. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/feature-tweak-closed-classifieds-now-moved-to-the-back-of-the-classifieds-section#post-860561 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 17:48:19 +0000 mrbee 860561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Once an item has been bought or sold on the Classifieds, the person who made the listing can close it out. This been a really helpful way to clean up the classifieds section, but we've noticed that there are now a bunch of "closed" listings cluttering up the classifieds section.</p> <p>So NaturallyCathy had a suggestion to clear this all up: "I think it would be helpful if the classifieds that were closed would be automatically be moved to the back of the classified section."</p> <p>It was a great suggestions, so we went ahead and implemented it! Now we first show all of the open classifieds, in the order they were posted:<br /> <a href="http://classifieds.hellobee.com/" rel="nofollow">http://classifieds.hellobee.com/</a></p> <p>Next we show all of the closed classifieds, in the same order (newest listings first). You can see how it works here - as of today, the closed classifieds start appearing near the bottom of page 3 on the classifieds:<br /> <a href="http://classifieds.hellobee.com/page/3" rel="nofollow">http://classifieds.hellobee.com/page/3</a></p> <p>Each category of items (e.g. "Kids Clothes") also uses a similar sort... first it shows the open listings in order of date listed, then it shows the closed listings:<br /> <a href="http://classifieds.hellobee.com/board/kids-clothes-for-sale" rel="nofollow">http://classifieds.hellobee.com/board/kids-clothes-for-sale</a></p> <p>We hope that makes browsing the classifieds a little bit easier! Thanks to NaturallyCathy for the suggestion!! </p>
