On e90post, the regional sections have UK specific sub-forums, eg UK tech, OT and classifieds. However, that wasn't extended to the other sub-domain sites, eg f80.bimmerpost.
Can this be done, specifically for the classifieds, or better yet, add region tags in the classifieds sections thread listing?
While the location stuff seems to be in beta, if it's not mandatory to put that information in, or it's not viewable in the thread listings, it becomes useless. With an additional tag, you'll be able to see in the thread list where something is being sold.
For example, as a test, I used 60606, which is a ZIP for the loop area in Chicago. No threads popped up. If I extend the search to 10 miles, I get some hits, which the ZIP alone should have provided.
I also used my postcode in London and extended the search to 500 miles, which will basically cover the entirety of England, and nada. That means either no one in the UK is using these sub-forums, or that functionality for non-US addresses doesn't work.
Either way, a visual representation on the thread list would work nicely as is done in other forums.

Extend regional sections to other subforums or sub domain sites
