    I’m getting a “you don’t have permission to start a new post” message when I try to list stuff in the classifieds. Anyone else run into this? Really bumming out my parts clean-out. View attachment 4935615

    Looks like that.

    I’m not sure that screenshot posted either....
     
  3. You need to post ads using a browser, not the HAMB app. Might that be the problem?

    APP doesn't work with the classifieds.

    Use your Phone Browser or PC

    I'm 72 yrs old, all of this computer jumbo is all Greek to me. What's the hell is the difference between a browser and an app.
    I'm having a problem posting a photo ' it wants the URL what the heck is a URL or how do I post a photo what happened to the copy and paste method?

  8. A browser allows you to 'surf the web'. Some of the most common are Chrome, Safari, Explorer.

    I hear you, Mouse! Shoot me a PM if KJSR's link doesn't help you out for the photos. I'm generally pretty good with this stuff, but get snagged every once in a while...

    Browsers are the programs that let you access the internet - think Windows Explorer (I think it's microsoft Edge now), Google Chrome, or Safari on macintosh/apple stuff. There's some other ones out there too, but they all do pretty much the same thing - let you access the web.

    Apps are the confusing thing, because they're the new kids on the block. Think of them like a shortcut to get to a specific site on the internet. So if you open the HAMB app, you're on here straight away (but can't post photos to classifieds I guess...), where if you use your browser, you have to open that first, then go to the HAMB. Browsers let you do more things usually.

    As you get older dealing with the new fangled shit....

    It’s kinda like mixing Alphabet Soup with a laxative ......
