Could anyone give me an idea as to why my for sale ads are not being posted, i have checked that i have started the title with "for sale" , i dont see any other requirements on the for sale wanted page?

If you haven't donated to the site and gone from blue to purple, adverts are moderated, and it can take a while Hugo.

Thanks for the info Dave, i didnt realise i had to donate to post ads, where do i donate and who to ?

Hugo, Donate button is on the top toolbar extreme RHD, some folk have started posting adds in the Malvern Arms which bypasses this and seems to work and of course people can comment then too.
