Apparently something has changed with Firefox, as its not working as well with RFF as it once did.

OTOH - the new Microsoft Edge browser seems to work great with RFF right now, NO PROBLEMS with the classifieds that I can tell

Best,
Stephen

Whenever I try to go to the classified section, I am logged out. If I log in, it sends me to the Home page, and when I click on Classifieds, I am logged out again.

So, I cannot use the classified section at all, besides looking.

Any suggestions? I've tried deleting my history/cache.
 
use firefox browser

log in from the home page
click "remember me"
then switch to classifieds
to place ads

-- works for me
 
Similar problem here. I only use Firefox.

A few minutes ago I finished composing my multi-item ad using the Classifieds web interface, I took me over 30 min to compose it. When I was done, the interface logged me out and I think the ad is gone, never posted (I was never asked to pay but I was asked to login again). Does the draft of my ad exist and can I access it? It was a lot of work putting it together.

Is there a time limit on how long it should take to compose an ad? Or is there a time limit on board inactivity?

At this point I am rather afraid to even begin to place and add, for fear it will be lost before it is posted.
 
Works OK on my Ipad Safari and my Dell Windows 10 with Firefox BUT even thought I have "remember me" turned on it will randomly forget me and I have to log on again (both machines).

I've had this happen to me a few times, and not just because of possible problems with RFF site problems. Sometimes its just me fumbling. So now I compose my ad on my Mac, using the simple TextEdit software. Once I get it shaped up, a copy and paste into RFF ad.
 
One more question. If I post an ad to sell one item, that's $7. But if I have 10 items listed in the ad, that' $70? Am I reading it right? I haven't been able to find any help on this yet.
 
Andy,
You can post more than one item in a $7 ad. As items sell, you can delete them, but no additional items may be added to that ad. Hope that helps some.

Firefox latest version seems to be less friendly than before to RFF software.

Try the EDGE browser. For the time being, it seems to work better.

I'm on Chrome and I can't seem to post a WTB. Very strange, keeps logging me out when I head over there.

Looking for a GF670 if anyone is selling. *Shrug*
