How do I edit my ad photo order and set my featured or thumbnail image?

I’ve had this question asked a few times over the years and figured it was time to build a how to. Please ask questions and comment in the comments below so that other users can benefit. If you like what you see happening here and want to help fund this site, please Feature your ads, Donate or always Shop through the Sponsor Shop when you buy online to help fund this Made in Montana gun site.

Users who upload more than one photo can have them display in whatever order they want on their ad photo album. They can also set which image displays as their thumbnail image on the Classifieds page. The featured image also displays as the photo that displays when your ad is shared on other websites like Facebook and Twitter and even at this site in the Community News Feed.

#1 – To edit your uploaded image order or to change which of your images are featured, log in and click Manage Ads from the main menu.

#2 – Click and drag images to the same order you want them to appear in your ad. If that’s all you want to do, simply click Update at the bottom and you’re done. Your images will appear in your album in that same order.

#3 – To change which image displays as your Featured Image, click Edit on the photo you want to make the featured image.

#4 – On the edit image page, select Use this image as featured image. The click Update Description. The close the edit box.

#5 – Once back on the edit ad page, click Update again to make the changes stick. That’s it.

Visit the Classifieds page to make sure the Featured Image is the one you wanted. Repeat as necessary. Visit your ad to make sure that your photos appear in the order you want. These two functions are separate. Just because you upload in a specific order, that does not mean they will appear in that order. Simply click and drag them to appear in the order you want them to appear and reset the featured image however you want. Only ONE featured image per ad is possible.

Ask your questions about this function below. Send me a private message if you prefer to keep it private.

it would be wise for all of us to clearly understand what liberals, social democrats, communists and American Democrats actually are (because they are not)...

American Democrats are a unique catagory... they are not democratic socialists or communists... they exist mostly to battle Republicans... they also advocate for really stupid shit but that comes primarily from the asshole doners who pretty much controll both parties...

democratic socialists... think denmark, sweeden, findland, norway and by extention, iceland... the happiest people in the world according to years of studies...

communists... think china and russia...

what we as Americans need to deal with is fucked up influence of special interests and money in our elections, over reaching tyrants, two parties focused on screwing us over and fighting each other and keeping us unfocused and divided... our greatest flaw is not paying attention to the scoundrels... how many times have we heard or read about completely rogue law enforcement destroying politically incorrect people... we see images of Americans being brutalized just as horribly as anything you'll see in china or russia... i'll bet y'all can come up with 50 federal agencies that do not provide a damn thing an in fact, are focused on destroying us individually and socially... in a coule years (if not sooner) we'll all be safer because big brother will see and hear everything you do...

i admit to being especially harsh on our country but thats because i live here... i do not give damn about the aweful 2-party propaganda, the crap comming out of the white house or the biased talking heads... i see the horrors ahead and either our elected monkeys can not or will not act...

so who actually runs this land of the free...
