I've created the tables manually and have it working
There is another 'sort' error with MySql in the file: auction_feedback.asp at line #198 ...
quote: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'
[MySQL][ODBC 5.1 Driver][mysqld-5.1.44-community-log]You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '5 DATEBUYER, BUYERCOMMENT FROM FORUM_AUCTIONFEEDBACK WHERE SELLERID = 3 ORDER BY' at line 1
/forum/auction_feedback.asp, line 198
I've tried a fix but cannot seem to get it right
Cheers,
Dave |

At line 197, change the following:
To:
Then at line 219, cahange:
To this:
Has to do with the way MySQL calls the TOP command. Like I said, I only did basic testing with MySQL. I have updated SnitzBitz.com with the new file.

Hmm, the emails aren't being sent to advise of end of auction - they are working however if you have been outbid or have made a bid, plus the admin is being notified of new auctions |

I've got this working pretty well except for one thing I've noticed....
You can't edit an auction without starting it over. Say I just want to add a link to some more pictures to the description, you must pick a number of days again and it resets the days and the time. |

This is by design Bobby. If you are going to change the action item description with additional information, then the date should start from there to be fair to others.

Unfortunately, this opens up a lot of dishonesty with the sellers. If an item has 1 bid (or low bids) and the seller isn't satisfied with the sell amount, then all he/she would need to do is edit the auction item causing it to reset. This will cause the potential winning bidder to be cheated out of the item. Now he/she has to wait longer and risk the chance of more potential bidders outbidding them.
It would be nice if the time is only reset if there are "no" bids on the item. The edit option could be allowed if there are bids for the admin with the option to reset the clock or not based on the situation. |

I can see it from both sides, but I felt it as unfair if a seller changes the item, then they could say that the bidder was only bidding on a picture (for example) and not the item that was originally listed, then there is that floor in it. There is the risk that the seller has in changing the item, and that is if they change the description and or the price, then will the user that was bidding on it bid again if they raise the price and possibly loose a sale all together. Or do we have it that they are allowed to edit the item and the user doesn't get what they originally hoped for.quote: Originally posted by Sean Sounds

There is no easy way to allow the edit to occur and you get a seller who might of originally put in a wrong description, and that would be unfair to the bidder, so I took the easy way and reset the auction. That is a good reason to have the correct description from the start.

And a good one. |

Yeah. That's what I was suggesting in addition to the time being reset during the editing. I also added that the Admin should maintain the option to edit (even after there is a bid) just in case there was a serious issue with the description and the Seller could not make the change because a bid occurred before the Seller could make the correction. The Admin's change could be made and allow the auction to continue without the time being reset. In addition, an email could automatically be sent to the bidder(s) indicating that a change was made by the Admin to the item so the bidder(s) and Seller could review it. |

Ok, I have updated the MOD to Auction Mod v2.6 to incorporate if an item has a bid on it, it can not be edited.quote: Originally posted by leatherlips

If there is no bid then it can be edited. I have not fully tested, but tested enough to show it can not be edited.. |

Thank you, will test today.
I was just informed of something else though. A seller just had an auction end and he says he can't see anywhere who won?
Edited to add: I'm thinking the seller and admins should be able to see a bidder list all the time? |

Here Bobby, my 2-cents worth:
Save this as "auction_bidders.asp"
Append this to the bottom of "auction_language.asp", immediately above the %>
In "auction_item.asp"

OK, it has been updated to include the MOD from Carefree (after fixing the format issue, thaks for that Carefree) so you can see who has bid on the item. |
