NEW FEATURE: Your Trade Is Now Listed Next To Your Posts


As you know ContractorTalk.com is for professional contractors only and is not for homeowners. We have another site dedicated to helping homeowners which is www.DIYChatroom.com.

When I use the term "professional contractor" I mean anyone who is in the BUSINESS of contracting. This can include sales, marketing, tradesmen, students, retired, etc..

Anyways, to help make it clearer as to what trade each member is involved with we have added a new field that lists each member's trade next to their posts.

Example:




If you wish to change what you have listed as your trade you can do so by going to Edit Profile in your control panel and editing the field that says "My Contracting Trade".

We hope you enjoy this change and feel free to post any feedback in this thread... THANKS!

I just noticed that. That will make it easier to determine what people posting do. Instead of looking up there profile.
