It would be somewhat ironic if they pulled this thread in a forum called 'website feedback' biggrin

Good work on the poll though smile I think the results will be interesting.

it feels like the autotrader site which I used until the new version and the same here. I am not a big ticket spender but ebay and gumtree will be where i will buy 5k cars.

Now you have to click 3 times and scroll down tiny lists instead of scrolling down the page, finding the brand and model and the clicking once. It's totally not user friendly as it stands and is even worse on a mobile device with a touch screen.

You have enough traffic and forum marketing to take your time to get this right.

If building classifieds was a premiership football managers job you would be Spurs when you could quite easily be Arsenal

No you can scroll down the page, find the brand and model and click on it. If you want to use it that way. In all the revisions that's never been taken away. It's always been there, and is still there.

Page layout is:
New Search tool
-
Random Adverts
-
Listing that you are looking for

The thing is the old one was much better! Easier to navigate, easier to find what you wanted and just generally better. I can hardly use it at all on my ipad.

I voted for use to use it but now cba as this is very true. I use to browse PH classified a few times a week now I really don't use it at all.

Its not there when I go to access it on my iPad or phone and I've certainly had it on some PC screen sizes where it doesn't do it either.

Ok so just the mobile site.

And the tablet should be using the same as the PC. My android tablet does. And you phone you can scroll to the bottom and click on "Use Desktop site" if you wish. But then you'll be back to how it was originally with tiny text and not designed for a mobile display. I prefer the mobile site on a mobile myself.

Nah it was better before. As everyone else says.

I tried switching to the mobile site on my iPad (which most people will be using, so presumably having similar issue) and it said there were 70 results of what I wanted to see, but only showed me one, and kept doing that. So I don't and won't bother in future, as per plenty of others looking at the poll.
