I thought I'd set up one of the Featured Inn free ads in the upper right corner, but when I try to upload the inn image, I get a message "You don't have access to any configuration profile to use the file browser!"
I thought it might be a IE problem so tried Chrome but get the same. Have not rebooted lately, so might try that...
 
OK, hold your fire!
Swirt got things fixed so I could upload my ad, and it's displaying now, but when you hover over my ad it says "Bed and Breakfast"! Since I don't serve breakfast (they have a kitchen, they can do their own!) I didn't write that, don't know where it came from, and don't know how to get rid of it.
I've written Swirt again for help but it may be a few days before he has time to make it right. I the mean time I guess I have to start carrying breakfast down there every day so I'm not guilty of false advertising ;-)
So, what is this "gluten" y'all keep talking about?

Gluten is a "binder". A by-product of wheat I believe and wheat is a BIG no-no for GF. However, gluten is used in things you would never dream of it being in - such as ketchup. Since it became the latest fad for the many, more and more things are being labeled GF - Yo pl ait yogurt for instance is marked GF but I did not see that on Dan non. For the true Cel iac person, cross contamination i a problem. I would never cut a loaf of GF bread or use the same toaster used with regular wheat bread due to cross contamination. I have separate meanuring cups and baking pans for them.

The "bed and breakfast" gets appended automatically to the location listed for location field for the "ad".
It is meant to give you a weeeeeee bit of help in the search engine arena. It will do very little for you in your case but will cause you no harm in terms of your customers.
In terms of worries of getting people here irritated by misrepresentation.... anybody crotchety enough to draw issue with it just needs to be accused of being crotchety and asked to get over it. ;) However if it the fear is overwhelming on your part you could always adjust your location to be
"[city], [town] guesthouse not a" which would cause it to be displayed as
[city], [town] guesthouse not a Bed and Breakfast" in which case it would honest here and stand the chance of a weeeeee bit of help in search.
 
ANd I am sorry.... somehow I completely missed this thread. I got your message but somehow missed the original distress call here.

No problem. I'm not one of the crotchety ones! (And they know who they are!)
