I found a place to click but when I get to my ad title I can't find any method for editing the ad.

When you are logged in and the classified tab is highlighted directly below the tab (button) is the link to edit. You should be able to click on it and it will bring you to the edit, delete, etc. option on the lower rh side of the screen.

@steve-d It takes me to the title of my ad and some other info but I can't see any opportunity to actually see the ad or change the ad. I realized that it was screwed up when I posted it. I entered a price for front and a price for rear and got the goofy price info that you see. Sometime during this process I saw a button to mark it sold. I clicked it so I could start over and it did not respond. I haven't seen the sold button any of the times when I attempted to edit.

@35mike Well it appears you will need a "TINY" bit of assistance!

@35mike Here you go Mike. When you're logged in and click the Classifieds button, this is the page you see. The top arrow shows I'm logged in, the bottom arrow shows the link you need to take to edit your post(s).

@tiny This is what I get when I hit the edit link. I can't see any way to edit from this page.

@35mike Interesting. Can you do a screenshot of the browser screen showing the whole page? I created a test listing and did a screenshot that shows Edit and Delete at the lower right. See below.

@tiny My Wife did the screen shot for me. She always insists on cropping so I let her shrink it to eliminate the "previous page" and "next page". The Edit and delete buttons have never been there.

I'm wanting to verify that you are indeed logged in. You can see at the top of the image I posted that it shows me to be logged in (Howdy Tiny with a thumbnail of my avatar). If you want to crop the address bar and tabs across the top, that's fine but I need to see the black bar across the top of the forum page and including the previous & next page links would show I'm seeing the whole thing & the Edit button is indeed gone. If you are logged in and don't have those options you'll need to call Peter, the Mods don't have the permissions to mess with those settings. I'd recommend you be at your computer when you call.

@tiny It has my name and the words Sign out at the top right but no black border or Howdy Mike.
