Jeff asked me to start a new forum and he moved all the old classifieds that were sold there. I think it will help keep the active classified section tidy. It’s located right under the classified section.

Re: Old Classifieds New Forum
Whoa! Looks like Jeff moved almost 2600 posts over to the new one.
You're the man, Jeff. How long did that take? Were you able to batch them with a keyword search or was this, gulp, a one by one eye strainer?

Re: Old Classifieds New Forum
Lets just say, "it took awhile", I did it in batches during my spare time over about three days. I was able to move some by the page and many others had to be sifted through because they never got marked as sold, there where also many where the seller never responded if the knife was sold. I moved everything from 2020 and older regardless of how it was marked because I figured those posts where dead anyway. I think in time we will move anything that is at least a year old regardless of it's posted status.
There have been a few occasions in the past where a request was made to do something like this to help make it easier to browse the Classifieds. With Mark's help we've tried to accommodate that request as best we can.

If this is done (bolded, italicized sentence), I'd mention it in the instructions, just to keep people informed.Jeff B wrote: ↑Sun Apr 30, 2023 2:51 pmLets just say, "it took awhile", I did it in batches during my spare time over about three days.

Oh, by the way, good job! Hope all the extra work didn't banish you to sleeping in Big Red.
