How can I actually delete an advert? I have a bunch of old completed ones but the only option I can find is to "Hide" it.

Should be a drop down menu somewhere, under "thread moderation" maybe ?, failing that, send me a pm with the URL's of the ads you want gone and I'll delete them.

That is the option to delete them

That literally hides them from view, its not a "hard" delete unfortunately. 

I'm happy to delete some for members (lol, im probably gonna regret this😱), just send me the URL.

So the solution is replace "hide" with delete and fully delete adverts and save Tackle being bombarded with messages 😂

[Lozart]

Thanks all, I'll get to hiding them then.

 

An odd choice of nomenclature all in all. Why not just call it "delete ad"?

I have marked all my adverts as completed even though they aren’t, added no new adverts for weeks, and still I can’t add new adverts as I have reached my maximum ?

I've just properly deleted all my old wanted & sold ads, it allowed me to post a new wanted ad.

How did you do that as I can only hide.

Probably mod privileges give me delete options, send me a few urls of ads you want rid of, we'll see if it works ?

I can’t see them anymore, and I checked back 20 pages on the parts section and they aren’t listed, but still tells me I have reached my maximum for the week.

I'm not sure how far back the automatic renewal system is pulling ads from, so if someone has had say 90 ads, will it keep drawing from that historical pool ?, would 81 have to be deleted before it allowed a new ad to be added ?.

Sorry, im not much help, all in can say is Proffrink is pulling his hair out over the issues, but is working hard to resolve them for the benefit of all the forums members.🙏
