Ad approval

Some admins might prefer to manually approve each ad before the ad becomes visible to the public. If you prefer not to allow ads to become publicly viewable as soon as they are submitted then you will need to turn on ad approval by going to your classifieds admin options page under Ad/Listing Settings and checking the option:

Disable ad until admin approves

In some earlier versions the text that accompanies this option might be different from “Disable ad until admin approves”. It should not be too difficult to locate the option that relates to disabling ads until approved by an admin. If you installed prior to the wording change to “Disable ad until admin approves”, simply look for the option that relates to disabling the ad until the admin has approved it and check that.
