Migration of Listings and Images
The Commerce Team will be doing a data migration of products and images next Monday and Tuesday. This Migration will run for Monday, August 30, at 9AM PST to 6PM Tuesday, August 31, and will apply to all listings – but only listings that are active will be visible to the public. You can change your migration preference by going to the “My Inventory page” on Xstreet. If you find migration bugs, you can file bugs using the public JIRA, also known as the Issue Tracker. File them as Project: “3. Second Life Website – WEB” and Component: “Marketplace”. More info on how to do that. Here is an example.

New Reporting on Top selling products and Listing enhancements
There is now reporting on the Top Selling Products, and the amount of views that listing has received. You will also find reports on Listing enhancements that provide data on impressions for the last day, week, month as well as how many click throughs have been reported for the last day, week & month. (Since we just started collecting data for click throughs, the number will be lower than the number for impressions.) We will be adding start/end dates as well as export to CSV over the next 5 to 10 days.

You can now edit multiple lsitings at once!
On the Beta Marketplace “Manage inventory” page you can now select multiple items and edit them together. You can update, feature descriptions, listing enhancements, prices and more.

Sincerely,
The Commerce Team

The  Commerce Team is heads down this week working on more key features and  functionality for the new marketplace.  Below is a list of updates we  made over the last week. 

 

Feature Updates and Bug Fixes for SL Marketplace Beta

• We added a “continue shopping button” when a shopper comes to your detail page from search results
• SL  Marketplace Beta orders now show in your transaction history as “MKT2” -  Xstreet purchases continue to show in your your transaction history as  “MKT”
• You can now use bit.ly urls for links to more information on inworld items
• You can now use bit.ly urls for inworld stores
• We have added the “category tree” to the store landing pages
• Edit link has been moved back to the right in “manage inventory”
• The Carousel on the home page no longer rotates

 

Quick Update on an XstreetSL Issue:

Linden dollars showing on Xstreet or during a purchase as L$NA should be fixed.

 

Distributions Coming to the SL Marketplace Beta

This  week we will be introducing the distributions feature to the  Marketplace Beta, but this feature will function differently than it  does on Xstreet today. The new marketplace will have distributions based  on Percent’s and not based on a fixed amount. The existing  distributions on Xstreet will be migrated over and converted to  percents. For more information, please see the Marketplace Wiki.

Be sure to refer to the the Marketplace Wiki for more specific FAQs, updates on features and other Marketplace project information.

We’ll  be reviewing the forums this week, as usual, but will have limited time  to respond during this busy time. In the meantime, the development  team will be watching the Issue Tracker, so as you find bugs, please  file them using the public JIRA, also known as the Issue Tracker. File them as Project: “3. Second Life Website – WEB” and Component: “Marketplace”. More info on how to do that. A handy compilation of Marketplace bugs can be found here.
