How do I post a classified ad? A business listing? A friend/events ad?
First, if you haven’t yet joined the social networking site for your organization, go to the Member Login section below the welcome banner. Click Join Now, enter the required information and click Join at the bottom of the page. Once you see the login window you may log in and begin using the site. Hereafter the home page will open with a login window for you.


To Post a Classified Ad:
  • Select the Classifieds tab. A display of options will appear.
  • Click Add Classifieds and begin entering your information, starting with category.
  • After you fill in the category, such as For Sale, a second drop-down box will open with more specific categories, such as Bikes. Select the category that fits best. Use General if nothing else seems suitable.
  • Fill in price, subject (what you have for sale), life time (how long you want to run the ad) and tags or key words that will help people search for your listing.
  • Type details in the message section. Text options are similar to those in Microsoft Word. You may choose font style, size, color, and more to make your text attractive and easy to read.
  • At the bottom of the page you have the option to upload a photo, which is highly recommended. If you don’t have one now, you may upload a photo later using the Edit function.


To Edit Your Ad:
  • Select the Classifieds tab. From the display of options click My Classifieds.
  • Click the title of your ad to see the entire ad
  • Scroll down to the Actions window and click Edit.
  • You may change any aspect of the ad, including adding or removing photos.
  • At the bottom of the Edit page, click Apply Changes.


To Post a Business Listing:
Select the Business Directory tab. Click Add Business Listing. Follow the same basic procedure as for classified ads. Keep the message simple, with key information that potential customers will want to know.


To Post a Friend/Events Listing:
  • Select the Friend/Events tab.
  • From the display of options click Add Event.
  • Fill in a title, tags and details.
  • To set Event Start time and date, click Choose at the bottom of the form to see a calendar and clock function.
    • To set time, click the up and down arrows for both hours and minutes. To avoid confusion, military time (24-hour clock) is used.
    • To set date, click on a day in the current month shown, or arrow ahead for a date farther in the future.
