    Equipment Exchange and Business Forums - Adding Location to your ad

    CGN has a "tag" system in place through which you can "tag" your post if you are the original poster. If you are the starter of an ad in the equipment exchange forum, you may "tag" your ad when it is first created. Business members can also tag their threads in their own business forums.

    When you are looking for an EE ad in a specific area, in the search page you can select whatever EE forums you are interested in and enter one of the following geo "tag"s. ONLY 1 TAG CAN BE SEARCHED AT A TIME. If you are a team member, all you need to do is entering the geo tag.

    Thank you. But perhaps you could fix it as even though 303 and enfield are supposedly tags, NOT one ad comes up when doing a tag search, yet 82 & 25 threads come up when searching for the words 303 or Enfield. Or, is it because the people posting the ads do not tag their ad with that tag?
    Cynic: Simply an optimist with experience
    Cynic: a blackguard whose vision sees things as they are, not as they ought to be
    Cynicism: Just an unpleasant way of stating the truth
    Cynicism: The power of accurate observation
    It's hard to argue against cynics; they sound smarter than optimists as they have much evidence on their side

    People have to tag their own threads, not us. We do not tag threads.

    Cool feature but I’m not optimistic...seems like the majority of posters can’t even figure out how to post a picture, tagging is going to be like quantum mechanics to those people.

    If we are being picky in Ontario it's Kitchener-Waterloo, not Waterloo-Kitchener.
