  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

No approval for Marketplace?

Hi,

i don´t know, but i have the same problem. Posted something for sale in the marketplace a few days ago, but it still says "Awaiting approval before being displayed publicly."
 
We seem to have some new, more stringent approval processes for new posts. I'm not in and out of the forums a ton these days, but I look at the message approval queue when I stop by. Seems about half the incoming posts are just spam.

As of this moment, nothing is pending approval, so your marketplace posts should be there unless I'm missing something....If you guys are still having issues, best to ask Phil.
 
It's still not there so I contacted Phil. Just waiting for a response now.
 
My comment on my marketplace post - a price reduction - is "Awaiting approval before being displayed publicly."

I have been on Reduser since 2008. I understand spam posts, but it could be worth considering the post's authors history before locking them down.
 
Hi Jeff,

I tried to renew one of my Marketplace ads withe "BUMP" that was posted earlier and received a reply that said "This post requires moderator's approval" or something. You guys may want to automate this process and a few others with a script. Otherwise, you folks are wasting moderator's sanctity and time as well as unnecessary delays of a process that used to work in the past. The original advertisement or the listing was already approved. Therefore, I see no reason to go through a re-approval process again.

Even this post had "This message is awaiting moderator approval, and is invisible to normal visitors."

after I posted.
 
I have had a post waiting for approval for over a week.

I am posting this at 4 Nov 10:42 GMT. I know it will take a while to be seen if I seen at all. One other post disappeared!

I have been an active positive member since pretty much the beginning (2 early numbers Red 1). Feels like I should take the hint this is not the party for me ;-)
 
Hi Jeff,

thanks for the reply!

My marketplace post is still not showing up...
 
Hi! It can sometimes take a little while for marketplace posts to be reviewed and approved. If it’s been more than a few hours (or a day, depending on the platform), it might be worth checking the following:
  • Make sure your listing follows the marketplace’s guidelines (clear photos, accurate category, no contact info in the description, etc.).
  • Double-check that your account is verified and in good standing.
  • If everything looks fine, you can reach out to the moderators/admins to ask if any edits are needed for approval.
Usually, it’s just a short review delay and it’ll go live soon. 👍
