Hi Daz,

There are quite a few people having problems finding thier standard adverts at the moment, so i have added the answer to the FAQ at the top of this forum

Me neither! Submitted my ads a few times over the course of the past week, also using another email address and they're not appearing yet saying 'live' in the 'manage my ads' section. ???

As said in the FAQ at the top of the page.

We have just launched a new classified system featuring two levels of advert, standard adverts and premium adverts.

Premium adverts cost £7 and feature 9 pictures and placement at the top of the listings.

Standard adverts are free, but are placed after all the premium and dealer adverts in the listings. This will include any ordering you do to the adverts, for example price where the standard adverts will appear out of order.

In addition to the two categories, we also still have some old adverts on the site which were submitted before new system went live on the 3rd of July. These adverts are being treated as premium advert until they expire (which will be within 30 days).

All of this means that if you have recently submitted a standard advert then it is likely to appear several pages back in the listings, especially in a busy category which still contains a lot of old system adverts. As the old adverts expire this will balance out, but in the mean time your advert can be easily found by using either the advanced search or filter tools.

We are looking into better ways of showing where the advert is for standard adverts so that you can see the advert on the site.

Hope that helps.
