Bit of an interesting issue this...

If I go into my admin section and click 'listings' then sort by 'Expiration' to see which adverts are expiring soonest, I can see 5 listings that are a few days old, yet are still classed as 'Active' (though they aren't on the site.

Can anyone explain why that might be? If a user was to log into their account, the listing would appear to be active, although the expiry date has passed, removing it from the site.

My worry is that people aren't going to renew, thinking there advert is inactive.

Cheers

Tim

Hi Tim,

That is actually the way it is setup. From the admin expired listings will still display the original status even though it is expired. In the frontend an expired listing will no longer display and in the user browse listings it will show as expired with the option to renew.
