Troubleshooting

Can I also make changes to ads that I posted using "Post Now" vs "Schedule"? 

No, you can only edit and delete live ads that were scheduled. Any ads that were posted using "Post Now" will not be editable or deletable from the Scheduled Posts queue. 

Can I edit the photos in my live ads? 

You can edit the photos on your live ads but not from the Scheduled Posts queue! To adjust photos on your live ads you'll need to log in to your Craigslist account.

The PostEngine icon isn't in my toolbar.

If you haven't uninstalled the PostEngine app but can't see the icon, it may just be closed! Search for it in your Windows start menu and click to open. If you need to install the app, you can find everything you need here

My scheduled posts are failing. 

Make sure PostEngine for Desktop is left running on your computer throughout the day so that the program can post your scheduled ads. If you are leaving it running and posts are still failing, please reach out to us at help@rooof.com.
