What is a "Conversation"?


A conversation is our forum's private messaging system, sometimes called DM (direct message) on other social media sites. It enables you to send a private mesasage to one or more forum members and it won't be seen publicly anywhere on the forum. Click the letter icon in top right to view Conversations or start a new one with one or more members.


How do I delete or edit my post?

To change the title of a thread or post content, you need to select "Edit" at the bottom of your post.
Editing is only allowed for a certain period of time after the post.
Normally, you just add on a new post to your original thread with your updated info like price change or new contact info, etc.
If there is a serious issue with a post you may use the "report post" feature or ask for a moderator's assistance.

How do I add an image to a post?
File upload size is limited - use this easy, free tool or similar to downsize your photos: TinyJPG – Compress WebP, PNG and JPEG images intelligently

In the new message box, or reply box, click the 'Image icon on the menu bar that looks like a little photo, then either click to browse photos on your computer or drag and drop a photo file your computer. Or to hotlink a photo on the web, on the same image add popup click on the link tab and add the URL to an image address for an image already on the web somewhere - like "http://www.website.com/picture.jpg".

You can also attach a file and then insert into the message full size or thumbnail. To upload from your computer, underneath the message editor is a button for "Attach Files".

You can also insert images from your SoWal Media Gallery / Albums of photos you've uploaded. Just copy the code from the "Share This Media" Box.
