I went through the pages on this thread but didn't notice this bug posted before.

The results/page function doesn't seem to work if I search by body style. At times, it shows 10/page and multiple result pages, other times it shows all results on the first page e.g. 52 or 73 all on page 1. if I select some other paging option from the dropdown then it just doesn't display anything at all.

Another small gripe is the same as the one posted by Ghodlur earlier i.e. If I search by my zip code - 400601 (Thane) I get results from Pune as well. I actually find the search by city/ x kms radius of city available on carwale as the ideal way to search.

Thats an interesting idea prateekm....

Though, as Xehaust mentioned, only TBHP members are allowed to view forum member profile pages, so for a lot of viewers this link could be a dead end (no permission to view this page).

Nonetheless, have made a note of it. Perhaps we could include a very small link or find another workaround.

Gomzi,

I've tried to re-create this on 3 browsers and in a bunch of categories but i could not get it to happen. It worked fine.

I realised later that this might be caused because you are jumping between tabs / running multiple searches and then using the "20 ads/page" dropdown on an older search?
See the problem described by Xehaust in post #64.

I replied to that saying :
This is actually a shortcoming of the software being used. We're looking into workarounds at the next major overhaul.

In your case, if you stick to using tabs only to open individual ads (and not multiple searches) this might be a good workaround for your problem for now.

See my reply to ghodlur here : https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/2129233-post72.html

It has a simple solution for this issue.


Thanks,

Thanks, I missed this one when I was skimming through the thread

Gomzi,

umm, not quite.

Ok, so I tried it again after seeing your post. I run Firefox v3.6.12.
I browsed to the classifieds homepage
- this time did a search on zipcode as 400601 no other changes to the search criteria
- I got 63 results, all on the same page, even though the default paging was showing "10 results/page".
- I changed the paging to "20 results/page" and
- viola! 0 results found

I tried the same steps using IE 8 and yes, it works fine there i.e. 63 results are displayed 10/page. If I change the paging to 20 etc the display works as it should.
I then tried the same thing using the IE Tab addon in Firefox (which I guess redirects page parsing and rendering to the IE engine) and guess what, it works fine that way too.
So i'm guesing its some sort of incompatibility with this particular version of firefox.

All the times, I had only one browser tab on the classifieds site. No opening results in new tabs (ctrl+click) etc as is my normal browsing habit. So its not a gripe as I can browse via other means described above, but just something I noticed and thought you guys should know.

Hope this helps.

A small suggestion. There are quite a few adverts for Scale Models in the Gadgets section. Now, being a portal for cars, perhaps these can be given a seperate section for themselves like Phones, Cameras, etc. under gadgets.

And also be displayed on the home page under the Accessories & more section.

I am actually using the exact same version of FF (3.6.12) and have never encountered this problem! Perhaps an add-on is causing it?
I suggest you clear all cookies and cache and try again if you wish to pursue this - that might help.

Done!

We had enough scale models on sale to warrant this. Here's the section :

^^ This can happen at any time with any website.

Usually when a web page is not fully loaded due to slow connection/timeouts and we press the stop button, the partially loaded webpage is displayed by the browser.

I'd strongly suggest you upgrade from IE6 to IE7 or IE8, or better yet, Firefox, Chrome or Opera.

These days a lot of major sites (gmail, youtube etc) no longer support IE6!

How do I know, whether a product is Sold or not?

[Rehaan]

Hi Mashmash,

The way things are at the moment - Once a product is sold, the ad is removed from the Classifieds.

If you see a sold product that is still listed once its been sold, please use the REPORT AD button on the bottom right of the ad to alert us of the same.

[mashmash]

Ah alright. I had contacted a seller for a particular product and never got a response, thought maybe its sold. Hence the question.

A lot of you requested an easier way to browse recently added listings.

Well, here it is!

Clicking the link highlighted below will show you ALL listings, across all categories (cars, bikes, gadgets, parts etc) - in the standard newest-first list format - making it easier to browse and navigate the most recently added ads.
