Site Maintenance Note
HI all,
We've been doing some necessary site maintenance for the past couple of days. The site will be unstable in the next couple of days, while we work with your feedback to restore full functionality to the site. Our apologies for the inconvenience.
A very important change to note, "My Menu" has moved from the right side to being part of the horizontal menu as shown in the red circle. Hover your mouse on top of it to access functionality like adding Classifieds, Forums, Questions etc.
Some functionality like Private Messages and Friends List are not back up yet. I'll try to have those restored in the next day or two.
Use the Contact form to let me know if you encounter any bugs and I'll try get them fixed a.s.a.p.
Thank you all for your support and patience.
Ahmad, Qatar Living

I don't think more Qlers will be interested to post a topic. Imagine, after posting for just five minutes that post will be in the 5th page.

*Signature line should be there
*Sender information should be on bottom not on the top.

Can I give a Suggestion? ...As you are already working on the maintenance & changes...please do change one more thing. When we click on the "new posts" against any thread...it navigates us directly to the new post in that thread...but once the thread enters the 2nd page or multiple pages, it doesnt work and only shows the initial post. Kindly make it possible for every 'new post' if possible. Thanks :-)

It is better if your could ...It is better if your could add "two options" under the Recent Posts bar.
Like this:
Recent Posts
* Forum Topic
* Classifieds
The above will simplify the Recent Posts and will surely help the users.

CLASSIFIEDS maintenance ...Could we program RETENTION PERIODS for postings under classifieds to atleast have the automatic regular maintenance of it.Then, we can unload the database for faster browing I guess. Anyway 1 week of posting could be enough. If unsold and still have the intention to post, just REPOST. It wont hurt you. Also, for those who doesnt care once their item was sold, QL automatic deletion/purging shall do the task.
One thing more, provide a LIMIT on the number of postings per account. Atleast, for those who love posting, reposting, reposting & reposting of the same item just to make their ad on top or in the recent list, they will be forced to delete first their previous AD under their account prior to reposting.
Isnt it good????

changes is for the better ...ebut I don't think most of us like the new QL.We want to see the recent post on STORY ,FORUM but not the recent posts on CLASSIFIED ADS.
We will go to classied if we want to see something on it but other than that we prefer forum topics all the time.Not all of us check classifieds section.

why the Classifieds posts in the RECENT POST??? ...all I could see are accommodations, ads and whats-not?
Where are the topics?
Xena said
Ahmad, please can you make the recent posts ...Forum Topics only...
This things with the classified being added to it is frustrating, cause all I see are ads and no topics...
I think Stories (group topics) Should also only be seen within the group, not on recent posts too...
Sorry, my two cents worth.
Thanks.

thanx Ahmd- classifieds look great ...I used to avoid the classified section here on QL like the plague, but now it's sooooo much easier to navigate through them and there is such a HUGE selection! I hope this is going to make my home-hunt much easier. I still can't believe some of the deals I've already found.
Looks great, before I couldn't make heads or tails out of the classified section.

New QL ...Oh dear. Don't fix it if it ain't broke. What have you done to QL?!
* Where has the recent questions posted box gone from the right?
* I don't like having recent topics, hot topics and recent comments - it's all the same thing to me
* Why is everything suddenly the same font and size? It's boring and confusing - especially the "submitted by" and date before the message - can it go back to the bottom please.
The rest is just a really wierd layout and I guess I'll get used to things but at the moment the classifieds look like there's an error on the page and it's all stretched out because somethings missing.
Please put it back how it was :( I haven't found anything yet that's actually an improvement.

I dont want a "submit a restaurant" option under "my menu" i just dont like seeing that there if I'm not going to use it everyday. When has QL turned into a restaurant REVIEW ONLY website? When did that happen? Also all the comments are showing out of the pink boarder. the reply and edit are all messed up. Waiting for the proper fixes :) Thanks

This site is doing an excellent job. It would be better to have some restriction on classifieds section. As if one person will be allowed to post one or two advertisement in a section for 24 hours or so. I feel many are misusing this part of the site very much. expecting comments in this regards from fellow Qlers.
Thanks
