Atomic Mall Build History - March 2010

[member_zero]

03/03/10:

• Instead of rerouting to Related Items page, the View page was producing an error when a listing # was not found. Fixed.

03/04/10:

• Fixed a script error which was surfacing occasionally during login and RSS feed attempts.

03/06/10:

• The AtomicTransporter was trimming the first letter of some imported item titles. Fixed.

03/07/10:

• Added "Listing ID" to the search fields on the Advanced Search page.
• The site now sends an email alert to sellers when they make a sale in which an item becomes "sold out". This will give sellers the ability to immediately reactivate an item if desired.
• Added an "Offer Delete" function so old, abandoned offers can be gotten rid of. Look for the radioactive "nuke" button next to the "Send Reminder" link.

03/08/10:

• Simplified the layout of many of the Store Settings functions by adding virtual toggle switches and larger, easier to read status. Look for the changes in Gift Certificates, Hit Counters, Instant Chat, Me or Us?, Offers and Sound Effects.
• Added a new "Global Override" function to the Store Settings > Offers switch. When activated, it overrides the individual offer preference setting on each listing in a seller's store and replaces it with the global setting. When deactivated and set to "Listing Dependent", listings will revert to the "offers" preference set for each individual ad when they were made.
• Added a "more" link to the Storefront "About Us" blurb in the upper right quote box. Clicking the link pops up a window with the full store info text.
• Added Xcoin and Visa/MC to the payment options visible for each Seller on the Stores page.
• The Sale page was producing an error when the results were filtered by category and then sorted. Fixed.

03/09/10:

• Our "1,000,000th" Listing contest is underway. Go to http://www.atomicmall.com/1000000.php for more info.

03/10/10:

• The "Blocked Buyers" function now applies to Offers as well as cart purchases.

03/12/10:

• Added a small tweak to the search engine which should improve speed on most searches.
• We have a new and improved "Related Items" page. It now shows results in the same graphical format as the AM Window Shopper and Seller Spotlight, with flags for items which are on sale, newly listed, offer-enabled and free shipping. This new page also loads much faster and does a better job at returning "similar" items when non-existent listing pages are queried. Example: http://www.atomicmall.com/view.php?id=535207

03/13/10:

• AtomicTransporter was on some occasions incorrectly mapping the categories of transferred items. Fixed.

03/14/10:

• The Creation Station now has a new description editor which is easier, more stable, and does not have the Firefox "copy & paste" bug that the old one had. This new editor should make listing a breeze, and has the ability to expand and contract to adjust for description content.

03/15/10:

• Added the "refurbished" condition attribute to all Google Base store feeds.
• Added a link from the Google Analytics Store Settings window to the Analytics tutorial here on the board: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1922.

03/16/10:

• The Official Atomic Mall Facebook page is now live. Become a fan! http://www.facebook.com/pages/Atomic-Mall/374353443983

03/18/10:

• Fixed a minor price formatting issue with the Featured Faders.

03/19/10:

• Added image icons to the Inventory page:
  These indicate which listings have images attached to them, and when clicked on, will zoom the image to a full size preview.

03/21/10:

• Sellers who have at least 5 AM feedbacks with an aggregate lifetime rating of 100 will now sport a shiny "Perfect Feedback" badge on their store pages just below the Contact box.
• Repaired a script issue which was preventing the Vast and Oodle feeds from submitting all AM listings.
• Added Xcoin and Credit Card stats to the SPA window.
• The description magnifier and mini-description box were running words together under certain conditions. Fixed.
• Google feed was failing if store only offered Xcoin as payment method. Fixed.

03/22/10:

• Added an extra layer of spam filtering to the seller "Contact" box. Users must now prove they are human by solving a random arithmetic problem when sending email inquiries.
• Fixed a problem with the store info editor which was disallowing multiple spaces.

03/25/10:

• Data Recycler listing tool released, allowing users to store and edit common ad information for substantial time savings when making similar listings.
