Bidfind Mega list problems Edit Delete Reply with quote Quote
First Post Posted on: 09-18-08 06:27 AM next post first post

I tried to get on bid find and they informed me that the megalist is not set up correctly.   Here is there response below!

Hello Chris,

This is our second notice to you Chris... perhaps you

did not receive our earlier email.

Your megalist is not correct and preventing our agent

from collecting data from your site.

You are using "Mewsoft Auction" software? There is a

built-in megalist... and you should contact the vendor

and tell him that the BidFind MegaList version has

changed and encourage them to update your megalist.

Our megalist example page is at:

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Regards,

BidFind staff consultant.

Here are some more specifics as to why the bidfind mega list link is no good.  Maybe you guys can fix it!

Hello,

Thank you for registering with BidFind, but we are

unable to collect data from your site.

Your megalist has some very bad problems.

Here is whats wrong:

1) DESCRIPTION field contains too many dots or empty

spaces.

2) No copyright at top of page.

3) No version number.

4) PRICE field has too many places after decimal

point.

Yes there FAQ says that we have to include their copyright and version number at the top of each page. I updated the BidFind.pm module to include these info, so just download the package and update only the BidFind.pm and Configuration.pm and let me know if still any problems.

Thank you

What about problems 1 and 4 they describe above. Too many dots or empty spaces in the description and too many decimal places in the price fields.

Below is some output from the megalist URL  I have bolded and made red at least one of the problems they mention.   As you can see looking through my megalist output every listing has all these dots as well as the one pricing that includes five places after the decimal point!

No, what I said is do you get errors or not, not asking you about their FAQ.

I'm not talking about there FAQ, the errors I have pointed out to you are the errors that a bidfind rep. has personally told me are incorrect with my Mega list.

1) DESCRIPTION field contains too many dots or empty

spaces.

2) No copyright at top of page.

3) No version number.

4) PRICE field has too many places after decimal

point.

It looks to me as though you have taken care of number 2 and 3  but 1 and 4 still need some sort of adjustment according to there email to me.

\ How many numbers do they allow after the decimal? Did they say?\ I hope they will accept 2 after the decimal. (15.00)\
