Wantedz

Swapz.co.uk is about turning things you no longer want or need into something useful or desirable to you. Sometimes you may need to be more pro-active in finding someone with what it is you want.

WANTEDZ is where you can list exactly what you would like and show what you can offer for it. Wantedz is fully integrated with the SWAPZ section. This way you can have listings that generate both exact and general proposals from other site users.

All WANTEDZ items are managed in My Wantedz, and the features are explained below.


MY WANTEDZ > Add Wanted — This is where you add new wantedz listings.

Once you have completed all fields and clicked on the PREVIEW button you will see what your wantedz listing will look like to other members when browsing the site.

If you are happy with its format you can either click on SUBMIT which will complete your listing or SAVE TO DRAFT which will put it on your MY WANTEDZ > Draft section where you can finish the listing by activating the swap at a convenient time.

If you wish to change your listing you can click on EDIT and then make the changes you want before either using the SUBMIT or SAVE TO DRAFT buttons.


MY WANTEDZ > Active — This is where you can monitor all the "live" wantedz you have listed on the site.

The PROPOSALS column shows what offers you have received and by clicking on the view text link you can be reminded of these offers at any time.

Within MY WANTEDZ > Active you have 3 icon options: Info, Edit and Delete.

MY WANTEDZ > Active > Info shows you the details and contents of your wantedz listing.

MY WANTEDZ > Active > Edit is where you can amend your wantedz listing at any time. Remember that to save any changes you have made you must click on the SUBMIT button.

WANTEDZ Troubleshooting

Occasionally you may have a problem uploading a picture with your wantedz listing. The usual cause is the size or format of the picture you are trying to use. We recommend that you size all pictures to a maximum of 200Kb and, ideally, save in .jpg format.
