That’s expensive.
Search eBay for Leading Edge Codes.
You can get 500 for $8.99

I know they’ve been working on this ability for a while.
It’s gotta be some complex code, so even when they release it, be ready for bugs.

Personally, I use uploads via Excel files and it works pretty good.

Looks like I spoke too soon.
Scroll to the top, then slowly start to scroll down. Header is still jumpy.

[Dirk Martin]

Why is nothing single spaced?
Everything is 1.5 line spaced or greater.

Looks like the jumping around, in the headers, is fixed.

[Dirk Martin]

Well, Turbo LIster was meant for eBay, and only eBay.
Sixbit, handles 3 venues (today)
Are you wanting to block countries on eBay only?

[Dirk Martin]

Looks like the old forum software, and this forum software, are our only choices, eh?
John, if you’re gonna stick with this forum software, does it at least have the ability to single space our text? Everything is 1.5 spacing, or greater!

I dunno…something just doesn’t seem right.
I visit other forums, almost every day.
I can’t think of any of them, that I don’t like. There must be tons of forum software out there, to uses. And, all those sites I frequent, all act and flow, the same.
NONE of them act, look and flow like what we have here.

I believe this forum software is called “EasyDiscuss”…and it’s not free. I’d be embarrassed to be paying for this….

As for the “support” of bugs….
I certainly feel tickets are the proper way to “support” bugs, but I feel a forum is the way to “share” bugs, and workarounds.
Unless….unless….you don’t want those bugs, made public.

[Dirk Martin]

Thanks for the post up here, Peter….
It solves lots of grief !

[Dirk Martin]

Look at that post from Bob V.
I mean seriously, could there be any more white space?
What kinda forum software does that?

Comments here, from the dev’s?
They’re probably too busy answering the same ticket issues, over and over and over.

[Dirk Martin]

How would we know, Bam?
We’ve all been told to open tickets with our issues, and not post them here.
How many ebay tickets were opened today? Yesterday? Last week?

And, even if eBay is running smooth with SB, realize that Amazon and Etsy are new!
This Sixbit software is the best that I know to be out there. Yesterday I was on a conference call, hosted by Etsy, with tons of sellers. I couldn’t sing enough praise for Sixbit, and it got a lot of good ears. I’d hate operating without it. But that’s no reason to have forum software that so many hate using.

When I post an issue with SB, here on the forum, it’s because I care about the community….not just myself.
But, when I’m told to post that issue via a private ticket, instead….I just don’t get it….what are people thinking?

[Dirk Martin]

Opening tickets for every issue works for ONE person.
Addressing an issue, here on the forum, works for EVERYONE in the community.
So, it works for one…but leaves the rest frustrated.

Thus my statement:
“…I’m feeling they really don’t care about the community.”

[Dirk Martin]

I’ve been complaining about this forum software, since I first saw it.
Plus:
It jumps around all the time, when scrolling.
Waaay too much white space.
It won’t maintain your login, even if you check “stay logged in”.

With the drop off in participation, you’d think the SB team would wake up.
I’m feeling they really don’t care about the community.
Afterall, they’re constantly encouraging us to open tickets, whenever an issue is posted to the forum.

[Dirk Martin]

Also fellow users….
All of my Etsy orders quit importing with this beta (your mileage may vary)

If you’re a big Etsy user, you’ve probably already found this bug.
But, if you’re a small Etsy user, check for orders on Etsy directly.

[Dirk Martin]

Matter of fact, simply by grouping by Product ID alone, in this grid, hangs SB.

[Dirk Martin]

My advice, would be to create the variation on eBay, or Amazon. You don’t have to add all the variants…but add a half dozen.
Then when SB imports that listing, you’ll see exactly what SB expects.
