    Hi Wes...it looks like the link to your page is dead...I'll wait till you update the link and then I'll take a quick look.

    Hmm that's weird, I clicked on the link and it worked but here it is again and hopefully it works for you

    http://selloffroad.com/viewlisting.php?view=32

    If it decides not to work just go to selloffroad.com and the one that is supposed to be sold is the "driveshaft out of a linked ranger" and is a featured ad so it should show up in on the homepage.

    Thank you!

    Hi Wes, the first thing I noticed was that the URL location in your CSS file to your "sold" image is incorrect:

    http://www.selloffroad.com/public_html/templates/purplicious/images/sold.png

    The public_html folder would be where all of your web files are stored....but even using the following doesn't work:

    http://www.selloffroad.com/templates/purplicious/images/sold.png

    Find out where you have your "sold" image stored (test the link in your browser to make sure its correct) and then update your CSS file...that may be the fix :)

    The second link you put worked in my browser. So I updated the code:

    slimage {
    border: 1px solid #fff;
    margin-right: 25px;
    width: 200px;
    height: 160px;
    float: left;
    text-align: center;
    position: relative;
    }
    .slSold {
    position: absolute;
    background: url('http://www.selloffroad.com/templates/purplicious/images/sold.png') no-repeat;
    }
    .slSold a {
    width: 200px; /* make sure this matches the thumbnail size in the admin settings */
    height: 160px; /* make sure this matches the thumbnail size in the admin settings */
    display: block;
    }
    .slSold span {
    display: none;
    }
    .sl {
    display: none;
    }
    .slAvailable {
    display: none;
    }


    But it still is not showing up..

    To show the "Sold" item as a featured item on the home page, you would need to apply the same technique and it should work.

    once you get a lot of listings how do you sort though them in the admin panel?
