Question Removing photo attachments in expired marketplace threads

mtansley · 08-10-2011, 07:13 PM

I'm looking for how to remove photo attachments from marketplace threads (my own of course!!) that are marked 'expired' or 'sold'.

I can remove any other attachment but the checkbox for these attachments is not available. When I go to the thread to edit it I can't find any way to edit it.

I had a search around this site but can't find this answer.

Thanks

Just let me know where the photos are located and I'll take care of it

Be sure to remove your photos prior to withdrawing an ad if you'd like to free up space in the future.

Hi Adam,

These are the links for the threads in question:

https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/expired-listings/141814-sale-withdrawn-ol...k-can-aus.html

https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/expired-listings/142300-sale-withdrawn-ha...nt-us-can.html

Any reason why we can't delete these ourselves or is it a permissions thing?

I didn't notice that restriction in the stickies for posting a marketplace ad unless I missed it somewhere.

Thanks for the help.

Whoops, one more I forgot.

Thanks again.

Yes, the archive forum is completed closed to both posting and editing. I'm deleting the photos now.

BTW, did any of those items end up selling? If so, they should have been marked as sold, not withdrawn.

mtansley · 08-10-2011, 07:37 PM

No, they didn't sell. I'm still stuck with them for now. I'll try again another time. I did make sure that several things that did sell got transferred to the sold section.

Thanks for deleting the photos. I'll be more careful next time. Promise.
