So we have expanded on individual listing pages to allow for more detailed views/seo/searches/visibility of each listing itself!

as an example, here is an expanded view of a users listing:


this will eventually be available via the member dashboard so you can easily view your own listing at any time, but for now its still a bit under construction so feedback is welcome!

if you want to look at your OWN listing, you can do so by finding your listing on the marketplace and clicking the LISTING ID on the current existing expanded view.

this is currently available for any listing in the marketplace as we continue to modify and make changes.

steps to access:

1. https://tug2.com/timesharemarketplace

2. browse to any listing, or group of listings

3. click "show listing" to expand the small listing summary entry

4. click the LISTING ID number just below the resort photo.

5. you can copy/paste this link to share it on social media or email it to friends/interested parties/relatives/strangers/enemies/whatever!
 
this is now live and has replaced the previous expanded listing format!

we also have redone a bit of the layout on how all marketplace results are displayed in the hopes it makes it easier to scroll/navigate all listings!

for instance the "free listings" section:

 
Hi @TUGBrian
[6:48 am]I just sent you a PM Conversation on the phone number showing in Marketplace Listings for owner contact.
Many or all are showing 808 387 1148
 
thank you for pointing this out...that is a rather "wyndhamesque" upgrade isnt it!

will hide the phone number for now until we can get that sorted.
 
ok, that was easier to find than expected, should be all correct now!

thank you for the emails/calls on that =)

Perhaps you should format the phone number so it isn't a full string of 10 digits. Reminds me of a King of Queens clip where Arthur is trying to ramble off the phone number for pizza to Doug.
 
thats not a terrible idea, I think i also want to implement a "show/hide" feature so its just not displayed by default anymore.
 
please do not hesitate to reach out if you find any additional glitches!
 
This new version is too generic (see 1st screen capture below). It forces the buyer to open every ad to determine important details such as view (oceanfront, ocean view, mountain, etc), season (platinum, gold, etc) and frequency (annual, EOY, etc).

Can we include view, season and frequency to the high level summary?
Or can we bring back the ad titles that previously displayed important details (for example oceanfront platinum EOYE)?

Can we add more than one floating period for resorts with more than one window (see 2nd screen capture) or provide an optional season name?

i like the idea of adding the ad titles to the expanded version yes! ill see what we can do! doubt it will be a problem adding that in!

note that the format adjusts based on the screen resolution of the device you are browsing on...and today we have the majority of visitors to the site on mobile devices vs computers!

and some brand new updates for 2026 just uploaded!!

we have incorporated a number of different items based 100% on member feedback including this one!

for instance far more info on the "summary" pages making it much easier to navigate listings:

 
also note that owners can now easily access the dedicated page for their timeshare listing from the dashboard "ad options" drop down menu!

hopefully this will make it much easier for members to share their listings to social media or similar!

the more links that point to TUG, the more potential buyers and renters visit!
