    Hi - What page are they leaving from?

    Do you get many people leaving from the login/register page when they try to post an ad? (In other words is this step in the ad placement sequence driving potential customers away from the site?)

    I am curious because I am considering hiring somebody to code a work around so that customers are not asked for a username / password until after they have entered all the information for their ad, but I'd like to know if it's really a problem that causes customers to leave before I spend any cash hiring somebody to fix it.

    Thanks.
    (Nice site by the way - the grid layout works well)

    The login is not a problem, it is quick and easy to register to post an ad. I would suggest that a 'fix' is not necessary.

    Check out mr_green on here for the grid mod, he is v. helpful and the mod is only a few bucks, well worth it

    Good luck with your project.

    it could be intelligent because it causing in some point of view a waste of time

    1°)but it could be more secure for the content of the site
    2°) login is needed to allow the user to change the content of is Ad depending the during (time....saison...option) and of course if the Ad is sold

    so to get back
    same opinion has Howie
    The login is not a problem, it is quick and easy to register to post an ad.
    login after or before but is needed
