  ADDING YOUR EDITED PERFORMANCE PEDIGREE TO YOUR CLASSIFIED AD OR CATALOG PAGE:

TIP:  To make your work easier,  you can have two windows open at the same time by resizing them to fit side by side or one above the other.  (The latter is probably the handiest.)  Resize windows by dragging a corner with your mouse or dragging top or bottom borders with your mouse when you see a double ended arrow.  Reposition the window by clicking on the top border and dragging the entire window to the position you want on screen.

You can also minimize your text editor window and open your browser,  then maximize and minimize the two windows to move between the two.

With your browser open,  log in to buyhorsesonly.com and enter your user name and password.  You can click  this login link  now if you wish.

Click the "Edit Classified Ad"or "Edit/Update Catalog Horse"on your manager toolbar.  (It will depend on whether you are working on a classified ad or a catalog page.  See details below)

Click the name of the horse on the list of horses your have in the system.

You are now ready to copy and paste your finished report into your catalog or classified ad horse submission form online. It should be placed in one of the "Description" fields (classified ad,  or catalog page.) Then, click the "Update" button at the bottom of the form.

IMPORTANT: Your file will not be saved to the web until you click the "update" button at the bottom of the submission form.

If you have a slow internet connection or you tend to lose your connection from time to time due to your ISP's timeout settings or electrical problems, it is a good idea to click the "update" button more frequently as you are working. At least as often as you are unwilling to retype information you have already typed in :-) Information you place into the form does NOT save to the web until you click the "update" or "submit" button. Until you do that, it is just temporary data on your screen.  It is a good idea to fill in the "Required Fields" (labeled in red print) in the form first,  then scroll to the bottom of the page and click the submit button before continuing.

FOR CLASSIFIED ADS, place ALL of it in the FIRST "Description" box. This field is unlimited in size for classified ads. If you make a mistake and place it in the 2nd "Description" box, none of that content will display online. There must be some text in the first box in order for the content in the 2nd box to display in your online classified ad.

FOR CATALOGS, place only the amount of preferred text into the FIRST "Description" box. The amount you can place in this box will be determined by the amount of text that will fit in the space provided by your particular printed catalog. (Your catalog manager can help you determine this.)

Then, place the remainder of the text into the 2nd "Description" box. The content of BOTH boxes will always display in the online catalog AND classified companion ad. You should always end the content in the 1st box at the end of a paragraph, and begin the content placed in the 2nd box with the beginning of a paragraph. (A blank line will display between the contents of the 1st and 2nd "Description" fields.)

TIP:  After you have posted and sent your report to the web by clicking the "update" button at the bottom of the submission form, you can place the most important information into the pedigree chart by typing (or copying and pasting) performance or produce information into the pedigree chart in 6 locations: the sire, dam, grandsires and granddam's tables in the chart. The insertion point for this data is below the field (box) containing the ancestor's name.
