Given how many times this is being asked, it's best to have a single place to post all the queries. Simple answer: there are some menu changes being done in advance of an upcoming site upgrade. There will be all new systems in place at that time. For now, the Ham Gear for Sale forum is alive and well: https://forums.qrz.com/index.php?forums/ham-radio-gear-for-sale.7/ General Merchandise is here: https://forums.qrz.com/index.php?forums/general-merchandise-tools-pro-audio-lot-sales.24/ All that has changed is the menu structure. We are sorry for any inconvenience. This is an open thread for commentary and discussion - all subsequent questions on this topic will be merged into this single thread. Thanks for using QRZ Dave W7UUU Director, QRZ Forums
Are there intentions to return the format that used to be in the Swapmeet where the items for sale are displayed there instead of just a list that you have to drill into to be able to see the items. I see a similar look on the main landing page, but it was nice to see them on the for sale page. Thanks!
Not at this time. There's a major site revision in progress and that sort of functionality will be a part of the revision. There's no firm timeline for that right now. Dave W7UUU
You're very welcome - I've seen previews and I think you and many others will like the new look Dave W7UUU
When clicking on a for sale item, sure would be nice to have the new tab open like it did before. Old habits are hard to break and I've closed the QRZ page a gazillion times by closing it's tab thinking I'm closing the viewed item. Otherwise, I'm just glad it's here. TU 73
On a related (but a different) subject/issue: Used to be, when one just "pointed" at the "Forums" Tab (on the main QRZ page), a drop-down would appear (similar to other tabs, like "Resources", "Store", "Database", etc.). This allowed you to select one of several options to click, to then direct-open some of the various sub-forums (like "Amateur Radio Amplifiers", "Antennas, Feedlines, Grounding, & Towers", etc., etc.), without actually having to click the "Forums" tab and then scroll. In this QRZ site's current iteration, that functionality is gone. Is this a permanent change, or is it perhaps coming back as part of the "big" future system upgrade? Not the end-of-the-world... but it was a handy, quick feature. Anyway, thanks for all you do! 73, ~Alan
There's a big site upgrade going on in the background. Things will be in flux while this is all going on. The final homepage overhaul will address all of these things once it's all complete Thanks for your patience Dave W7UUU
When I'm on my logging page and click on swapmeet it asked for login. It's annoying at the least. I find myself not looking and just moving on. Any plans on fixing that. It's been happening for months.
