While browsing the for sale sections, I feel like half the questions are "Where are you located".

Most people have their location on the profile and on the desktop version of the website it displays it by default. On the mobile version of the website it doesn't (on the mobile webpage version at least). One has to click the user name to see the location. Can we perhaps show the location of the user by default on the mobile website?

That should at least reduce the number of "Where are you located" questions posted?

Just a thought.

I didn't realize that didn't show up there. Maybe that's why these youngsters using that taptalk thingy keep asking where I'm located while I'm thinking they can't read. That's why I always include extra pictures.

I guess I could always start my ad by stating "located in Pearland."

Of course I always put TEXT me and half of the people still PM me. So maybe some really can't read...I don't know. Either way, if its possible, its a good idea.

It is probably possible to manipulate the responsive view template but real estate in the portrait version of the responsive template is very limited.

Easier to just turn your phone sideways.

Oh I agree.

But people don't is the issue. I'm not requesting because I can't do it. I just am requesting this so I have to see less people asking for location. I don't think an extra line under the person's username will be that bad.
