Approving Residents' Classified Ads

We would like to pre-approve classified ads residents want to post to prevent illegal or illicit ads from showing up on our site. The administrators should review and approve submitted ads by residents.
While the current program allows an administrator to delete and ad, the ads should be pre-approved before posting.

As an administrator I would like to be able to review posts in classified section prior to it going on the site. Without this control the postings may be inappropriate. Thanks

We have not yet implemented the classified option because we would want to be able to approve listings before they are posted. Until this is added, we won't be able to enjoy this feature. Thank you for considering this

Great feature but approval is necessary to prevent from inappropriate post, many post of same item/subject. hope you implement soon

Leaves the door open for someone to post something nasty disguised as an Ad

Kevin Doane: I'd like to point out that, as an administrator, you're currently able to moderate this page. Meaning, if you notice something has been posted on this page that shouldn't be, you have the ability to remove that listing.

Meredith Owens: Thank-you Meredith, yes I realize listings can be removed. My thoughts are that it would be better to catch a problem before it is posted. Communities to have Trolls.

I'd also like to see some sort of general alert or notification to all members when a new ad is posted

Amy Lewis: Thank you for sharing this! We have a separate post related to this feature request, which you're welcome to add your vote and comment to. I've linked that for you here: https://feedback.hoa-express.com/feature-requests/p/instant-notifications-for-classified-listings.

Again really like the idea, as priviously posted on February 18th of this year. "I really like this ability. We have created a classified BUT the board of directors seem to think the worst about members and don't want listings for everything, they want to limit what can be posted. Right now we just have a header with rules and then monitor what is added".
