I drop by the Classified Ads forum every so often, and today I noticed something that I think I've seen before this summer and meant to ask about. At the bottom of the forum page, it looks like there are 3 pages of ads listed, but when I click to go to page 2 or page 3, there are no more ads.

If the post from Classy Groundcovers is the last ad in the lineup, then I'm at least seeing them all. I was just curious about what seemed like a glitch (albeit minor).

There aren't any other ads on the subsequent pages.

The classified ads work using the "open" and "closed" thread feature (same as you find in the ID forums, co-op forum, etc.) The difference is in those forums, you can choose to see only the "open" threads, or all threads, open or not.

But with an ad, when it's finished its 2-week run and goes to "closed" status, it is no longer visible. If you could opt to see all the ads, including the "closed" ones, then you'd need the navigation to those other pages.

My guess is it isn't easy to hide that navigation on one forum, while displaying it in all the other forums with open/closed capability.

OIC! Thanks for the explanation. That makes sense.
