There appears to be another problem that some people SEE the contact info (phone # or email), and others do not see the info. This appears to be random, the same as the ability to read or post PMs (Private Messages). I do not know how, but I suspect the "security update" has trashed the ToTV database. I am guessing this is going to be while before if is fixed, unless they have a backup.....

Could also be that some people are looking at classifieds and not logging in first. Some people also aren't aware of the Show Contact Number button to the right.

I have to agree. The magnitude and duration of these problems is no longer reasonable.

Yes, it's getting frustrating.
I wish Admin would comment on the above two posts.

I'm trying to buy mom a transport chair that was listed and can not contact the seller even though I posted on the thread.

You have to log in to the classified ad section to see the persons phone number (I had to log out then log back in). On the right hand side of the page they have 2 boxes. One says "Show contact number," that is where you will find the phone number if the seller has posted it.

I have tried to contact Admins a number of times and ways to purchase ad space - no replies.

TOTV Team,
I am hoping that you have seen my email reply, as well as my reply on the other thread regarding site problems, but just in case, still having all of my original problems, including, I saw you sent mt a PM, I cannot open it, and I cannot reply to it. Also, only the first 2 items on the user CP are clickable.

I appreciate that you are looking into the problems and hope you find a solution soon.

PS, I just went into the classified ads, and there was only 1 (one) new item, yet there were several "items for sale" in the home page of the messages. There does not seem to be any correlation between the items showing in the home page and the actual items for sale.

ToTV team,
A big thank you, my access to read and write PMs is back, :wave: and it looks like all of the items in the user CP are working. :wave:

Glad you were able to find the problem.
