Conveyor Belt Slideshow

[ToyCrazyUK]

I'm pushing my luck a bit here, but........

Gazza/Mark, would you be able to set something up so you can just put a tick against the listings we want then press a button and HEY PRESTO!, the slide show is created. It would make it easier for us to created mutliple slideshows and adapt them according to where we are going to post them.

Just had a quick try - it is very easy to use. Just need a bit of time to go through all my listings and put them in there. This is going to be a big bonus for us sellers - Allen, please pass on our thanks to the author and thankYOU for spotting it and asking them to adapt it.

Can we make this a sticky thread? It is a very useful tool for sellers.

I forwarded your comment to the author.

I found it very easy to use, what I do is open eBid in one tab with all my items listed. I another tab I have X*Sell open. I use Firefox so I can have multiple tabs.

one the item I wan to use I right click the thumb nail image and choose 'copy image location' paste it into the image row on X*sell

Back to the item and open it, Ctl A/Ctl C the url and paste it on X*Sell

Back to item again and highlight and copy title, now paste this into X*sell

I find this pretty fast and easy way of getting it configured. Other than copying the image I use CTL C & CTL V for all the cutting and pasting.

Got an email from the script author this morning and he is modifying it for eBid. I started a new thread about it. We need some help debugging it so go to http://helpdesk.ebid.net/showthread....050#post566050 and click the link and check it out.

eBid will soon have it's very own X*Sell Cross Sell Gallery

I have just attempted to use this scrolling utility and despite trying both search options it jut seems to hang with no listings appearing in the window.

Absolutely agree ToyCrazy. This would be very useful.

It's a long while since I was on the 'other one' so I can't remember for sure, but I believe with 'Auctiva', you just filled in the details on their web-page (User ID, password etc.) and it would auto-add the slideshow (with its own random choices from your other listed items) automatically to all your listings. This is a really important feature, to save time updating hundreds of listings etc.

All the best, Simon.

There seems to be a problem with the eBid version when using IE6/7 this has been reported and is being worked on.

Looking good, Rednosty - most impressed by your 'on site' scroller

If your not following the X*Sell thread the IE problem has been fixed.
