How To Renew An 'active' Post

I have two "For Sale" ads that are "Active". I left them off craigslist for a couple weeks but now want to repost them. There is a "delete" option and an "edit" option but there is no "renew" option like there was before. I don't want to have to start all over. How can I repost these active ads?

This is a Craigslist glitch. You should be able to renew your ad every two days, but it doesn't always give you that option.

But there is a way to fix it. You must delete your ad first. Click on the "delete" button and take it from there. After you delete it, they will then ask you if you want to repost the ad. Click on "repost this posting" and you're all set. It will be the first ad in that category (for a few minutes).
