Nobody has selected those yet for any of the nurseries so it doesn't show in 'cloud' name group. If you know which nursery carries agastache, you can select that and submit it. Once approved it will show up.
@Dave you have both Agastache and Salvias and then again, just Salvias.

No companies have been added to Agastaches and therefore it won't show up in the "Popular Categories" cloud on the Green Pages front page.

I just now edited High Country Gardens to check off Agastaches and now it's showing up in the list. Marilyn, you can go and edit each of the companies you mentioned to check off each item that they specialize in and that'll help a lot.

Marilyn, as Dave posted in the first post "scroll to the bottom of the company's page, and click on "Edit this company's details" and you'll have the full range of all the checkboxes and text fields. Make your changes and submit the proposal, and a moderator (currently that's just me) will approve it and the changes will then take effect." So go to one of those nurseries that carry agastache and check that off. Like I said, no one has added agastache to any of the nurseries yet so it's not showing up yet in what I called the cloud of names at the top. It's available in the check list so you can add all of them.

Horntoad said:In addition to the "Post your own review" action, can we add a recommendation, without having to add a written review? Just click on the phrase and it will increase the recommendation number.


This is now ready. You can now endorse a company without leaving a review. The way to do it is to go to the company's page, scroll to the bottom, and you'll see two choices:

1) » Endorse (company) by writing a review
2) » Endorse (company) without writing a review

So you choose the second option and you're done.

If you later change your mind you can retract your endorsement by going back to the company's page, scroll to the bottom, and you will find a link to retract the endorsement.

I'm just curious, why would someone want to endorse a company without adding a review? Confused

I've come across companies that I'd like to endorse, but there were enough reviews already that anything I'd say would be superfluous. Kind of nice to just be able to say "Me, too!" without writing a review. Smiling
Confidence is that feeling you have right before you do something really stupid.
