Generalchaos Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 (edited) 4 Months we have waited for the new Thai Visa Classifieds! Now the ads have started to appear there seems to be only one slight problem.....you have to tick a box agreeing that you abide by the conditions. This really would normally not be much of a problem except that YOU CANNOT TICK THE DAMN BOX!!!! WIN 10 X64, EDGE. Who writes your code? Who checks your code? Who signs it off as WORKING? They need to be sacked! If there is a mod out there with a bit of nouse, please let Toby know I want to buy his keyboard, but the horrendous Classified Ad site doesn't allow me to check the box to reply to him....his keyboard will remain unsold and in the ether! Unbelievable, just pure sloppy coding. Maybe these are the same guys that wrote the code for the 90 Day immigration report online site? Another HORROR that is not fit for purpose!

DepDavid Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 I bet most people bailed on the classifieds and look elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemonjelly Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Gave up on classifieds already. Try Bahtsold. Com.Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henryford Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I tried to use them for a condo sale ad and they required me to pay exactly 149.28 baht. A bit difficult as Thailand doesn't have a 28 satang coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tech Doctor Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 @Generalchaos - Can you let me know browser and screen resolution you are using classifieds on? I can check the box with no issues, but would like to help further. TD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Doctor Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 @Henryford - You could have transferred 149.75 THB. or 149 THB, or if you were around Pattaya pop into the office and pay 149 cash. :) TD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can check the box with no issues, but would like to help further. TD It cannot tick the box in Win 10 X64 using Edge and Explorer, the box will tick using Chrome! Useless junk! Screen resolution is 1920 x 1200, not that I would have though that made a difference as I can tick the box in Chrome with exactly the same resolution - it is just down to SHIT WORK! For a site like Thai Visa to put this junk out after a 4 month break is ridiculous, they should be ashamed as should the fools they employed to code this garbage! Who on earth is going to pay for a Premium Ad on this site after they have made it patently clear they do not give a shit about their users. Did it really take 4 months to setup a classifieds section that doesn't work? As I said before, they couldn't code this worse than the Thai Immigration 90 Day Report if they tried. Maybe the guys they employ are using Windows 3.1? Edited December 8, 2016 by Generalchaos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gave up and went to a usable site. Trouble is, there are people out there selling and people out there wanting to buy. The sellers think they have placed a decent ad. that they can get a bit of cash for and the damn buyers cannot even get in touch! And a lot of us on here moan about the Thais for being stupid and incompetent....well if the shoe fits! 4 months and they cannot even build a simple web page with a database...the original offering had all of the adverts arse about face, all the new listings were at the bottom of the page! How dumb can you get? Edited December 8, 2016 by Generalchaos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit difficult as Thailand doesn't have a 28 satang coin. You could use a pair of tin snips and clip off a little from a 50 satang coin! As a side question, does anyone know how to turn off the ridiculous audio that bleeps and annoys whenever you open a post here? It really is an unbearably stupid addition, and so pointless. If you leave a page open every few minutes you get this stupid BLOOP sound announcing someone has made a reply! Surely it can be turned off? Strangely, it only effects the first open page that you keep open. Probably another Wet Dream Circle Jerk from the fools that encoded the new site. I hope George didn't pay these fools more than 20 Baht for the destruction of the new Thai Visa Web Site...if he did he was robbed!

Like I say it can be made to work in Chrome, but not in Explorer or Edge...and Chrome has just pissed a lot of people off by dumping Flash, so the audience is obviously limited.

Tech Doctor Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 @Generalchaos - I cannot get the check box to be unclickable in any browser, i tried edge, ie, opera, chrome and firefox. The only thing i can think of is it could be down to screen resolution and css breakpoints. Can you confirm your resolution for me please?

As I said earlier, the resolution in Chrome is exactly the same but it works. Explorer and Edge do NOT work! No idea what "CSS Breakpoints" are but whatever they are, along with resolution, you would have though someone would have tested it! Surely I am not the only person running Edge X64 at 1920 x 1200 who also has no idea what a CSS Breakpoint is? Well, there is definitely something amiss, tried again today, even using my laptop which is 720 resolution and Edge and IE do not allow you to click that dumb box!

wayned Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 I still use XP and whenever I had an issue George would respond that they do not support that old platform. I'm sure that someone will be along soon and tell you that they do not support that new platform! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If "this" in your statement above means XP, it should it should be obvious that I'm the crazy one as I stated that I use it. You can click on my Avatar to see who I am since my login name doesn't seem to be enough . I live in a remote area and it is still the preferred version used by businesses and private individuals mainly it works and no one wants to pay the cost of the upgrades necessary to run later versions. Where I live, last house on a dirt road in the middle of corn and sugar cane fields, my internet connection is ADSL and if I get 5M download it's a good day. If "this" in your statement above means this forum and Thai Visa, then me, you and a lot of others are crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
