You may now sort your have, wish, and keep list tabs by description and value.

Also your trades tab only shows matches.

Now if we can get that notification system to work....... have patience. LOL

I just "initiated" 3 trades with the new coupon database. I have a few questions:

-How will the other person know I sent a request? Do I need to send a PM also?
-How will I know when the other person responds?

A message board will appear under the Active Trades column beside the coupon that you are enquiring about in the other trader’s incoming or outgoing trade list, depending on which their end will be. This message board will give your member name and say Recipient Initiated or Sender Initiated along with any message you may have submitted. The trader will have 3 tabs at the bottom of the message board giving them the option of accepting the trade, canceling the trade or to just submit a reply message. You should be able to view all options and messages they submit in your own message board beside the coupon on your end. If the other trader routinely checks their possible trade lists they will see the pending trade. If there is no response within a reasonable amount of time, a PM probably wouldn’t hurt.

I think this is quite possibly the best invention since sliced bread. I have made and received more trade offers than I would have on the old system and have completed or in the process of completing a few more. It has definitely increased my activity. The only dire request I have is to enable the system to better handle multiple trades with one person. After I had finalized one offer, and sent addy's, I realized that I was trading for other Qs with the same person. Almost cost me 2 stamps! LOL

I am still getting this message too. It is very frustrating!

I'm having problems updating my WL. I can add things, but when I hit "Update Post" I get "We are unable to create your forum post due to an internal error. Please try again later or contact an admin" I've tried several times since this wonderful tool was put out. Other than that.....All I can say is You Guys are sooooooo AWESOME!!
Thanks!

I don't know why some people get that message...really I don't. I know that I get it from time to time when the database is full of people. (I look at whos online and where they are and can see lots of you in there...)

This also seems to happen from time to time when you post your list grouped by category. Since some coupons are categorized by multiple categories it seems to have a hard time posting the post grouped this way when the DB is really busy. My work around has been to choose another way to group my post. Of course you could be having a problem posting grouped by other ways too...LMK and I can see if I can help (no promises but I can try)
