Hi everyone,
As evidence that sometimes we do actually listen to your feedback  , locations are coming back in ad titles. We are going to start this test with just Cape Town, but if all goes well we can do the same type of implemenation for Johannesburg and Durban.
Please let us know what you think.
Bye for now,
Gumtree John |

By the way if you've already posted an ad, you can add a location by editing it.

What about adding these 2 locations as well.
Helderberg (Somerset West, Strand, Gordon's Bay, ect...) and
Winelands (Stellenbosch, Paarl, Franshoek, Wellington, etc...)
I reckon a quarter of the posters are from these areas. U have Cape Town covered, yet no Eastern Suburbs.
Heck why not Overberg as well (Hermanus, Grabouw, Gansbaai, etc...) At least we'll know where the ad is coming from.
Atlantic Seaboard
Cape Town City Bowl
Northern Suburbs
Southern Suburbs
Southern Peninsula
West Coast
Other Western Cape ?????? very far from CT
Eastern Cape ??????? very far from CT
Northern Cape ?????? very far from CT
Other ??%$???
Thanks |

Very true! Especially with respects to the "Jobs" section, these locations are a must. A job in Stellenbosch is not nearly the same thing as a job in, say, Durbanville or Swellendam, which seems to be the closest options?
When will we see this very necessary update? |

| Locations are fine for knowing where there item is situated, but when post an ad or looking for an item, it should be a NATIONWIDE search or posting....... |

It would be nice to have the Northern Cape as part of the locations, because you can not advertise in Johannesburg which is about 7 hours away from us ... PLEASE PLEASE put more options in your locations ... say for eg. al regions, like Western Cape, Eastern Cape, etc and a option where you can type in your own town and not a part of a drop-down list ...  |

|

Very glad locations are coming back.
deosyl, thanks for thinking about the Overberg. There's quite a few postings from towns located in this region, especially the ones like: Hermanus, Kleinmond, Bot River, Caledon, etc. Listings for these areas are currently being spread among the following regions (Cape Town, Other and Other Western Cape).
Please give this region a place of it's own.
I'd like to lend a hand by supplying a starting list :
CAPE OVERBERG
- Arniston/Waenhuiskrans
- Barrydale (Although Barrydale should also be part of the Overberg, I think they'd prefer being listed under Route62.)
- Betty's Bay
- Botriver
- Bredasdorp
- Caledon
- Elim
- Gansbaai & Surrounds
- Genadendal
- Grabouw & Elgin
- Greyton
- Hermanus
- Kleinmond
- L'Agulhas
- Napier
- Pringle Bay
- Riviersonderend
- Malgas
- Stanford
- Struisbaai
- Suurbraak
- Swellendam
- Villiersdorp
- Witsand & Infanta |

It's getting close to a year now since this very good suggestion was posted... will it ever happen?
How difficult could it be? |
