I entered an ad 1 hour ago and it has not appeared in the classified.

INSTANTly

$5 says you didn't finish the ad by clicking PLACE THIS AD

Are you sure that there is not a problem in the queueing mechanism?

Usually I can look at other folks ads via their profile page and see if one has not been finalized with the "place your ad" button and even used to show me the option to actually finish the ad for someone (and I have no special access that I am aware of).....I do not see a pending ad for you though.

I did report the above several months ago so me being able to see someone elses pending ads may have gotten addressed.

What I can tell ya is the last ad I see for you was posted 7/18/22.

Thanks Greg!!! I will take a look when I get home.

It posted the second time. I will try the test case again after waiting several hours to actually "place the ad." Until then, the best assumption is that somehow my memory is shot and I clicked somewhere that did not post the ad.

It will update if I have other information. Thanks again Greg!
