PM button on classifieds

[Dan]

Unless im missing it there is no easy way to PM the seller of an item directly from the listing. You end up having to search for the user and go from there. Maybe put the PM bar at the bottom of the listing like it does when somebody puts a comment?

well you have the email option

Yes i know, but id like a PM option too. I just like to keep forum contact within the forum. Only a suggestion.

While on the subject, it would be useful if the e-mails had the users name within the e-mail. Seeing how trustworthy/ how regular the user is can be very useful.

i think a PM button in classifieds would be a good idea, would be less faffing to search a person to PM then

Members can put a PM link it their ads if they want to.

I have this in my ads. https://www.fiatforum.com/private.php?do=newpm&u=48514

So if you use this in all your listings why not have a button.

Good idea though.

Because some people may not want to trade via PM. This way, they can choose whether or not they want to.

I think it would be a good idea too, it is rather annoying to have to search for the user just to pm them about something you want to buy
Could there be an option to turn off PM's from classifieds? then if someone doesn't want to trade through pm's they can turn it off to give a hint

Agreed, I'd much rather use the PM system over email for convenience. I only use the email system because there is no other option. I feel the comment idea is fine for getting information not for making offers. And under Email you can't tell which user is contacting you.

Been able to chose between PM or Email is the best way forward.
