Information / Enhancement to new Marketplace: Font resizing
« on: May 07, 2021, 12:43:29 AM »
The new Marketplace web page https://weeforestfolkclub.org/forsale/ now allows font resizing after drilling down to reveal details of a particular item for sale. Look for the 'AAAAA' near the top of the page to change the font size.

I've resurrected the bulletin boards collectively known as the old Marketplace as the Marketplace at the Forum. These bulletin boards are not the same as the Master List-based Marketplace web page found through the Hot Links. Instead, the bulletin boards here on the Forum fill a niche not covered by the web page, namely, a place to sell collections, groups of WFF, WFF-related paraphernalia, ephemera, etc., that can't easily be listed on the other Marketplace because there is no corresponding entry in the Master List.

Information / New extension to CheckList: CheckList Plus Photos
« on: February 22, 2021, 12:19:57 AM »
This new extension allows user to add their own photos to their CheckList. All 3 CheckLists (CheckList, Plus, Plus Photos) share the same data, so no need to transfer data to use the new extension.

The Plus Photos is like My Personal Master List, but restricted to WFF found in the Master List. Look for it under the Hot Links section.

Added to the bottom of the page, it provides more flexibility.

There should be lots of answers to this question.

Information / My Mobile CheckList/CheckList Plus
« on: September 29, 2020, 06:04:56 PM »
I just released a mobile version of the CheckList, designed to work on phones, tablets, and desktops. Looks like the mobile Master List with check boxes for your Haves and Wants. Uses the same data as the original CheckList, so there is not need to re-enter data if you already use the original CheckList. Now you can have an inventory of your collection at your fingertips wherever you go! No need to guess if you already have that mouse!

You can find a link to the mobile CheckList under the Hot Links section on the Home page.

Same goes for the Plus version of the CheckList.

Information / Enhancement to Nu Insight pricing
« on: August 19, 2020, 09:19:33 PM »
I added a small enhancement to the Nu Insight pricing: You should now see a graphical representation of the median averages displayed in the table at the bottom of the page. The graph isn't showing anything new, but the graphic representation makes it easier to visualize the trend (probably down). Don't panic if the graph dives all the way to the bottom; that probably just means "no data" rather than "worthless".

As always, feel free to send me suggestions for improvements/comments/gripes/etc.

Shucks.

About a month ago new registrations for the Personal Master List, Checklist, and Checklist Plus started failing because the old captcha (You probably know it as "I'm not a robot") no longer worked. It needed to be updated, but the need came at a bad time: I was focused on preparing the hard copy Master List for Folktoberfest. It took me a couple of weeks to figure out how to update to the new captcha, but I'm happy to report the registration process is now back online. So, if you'd like to take advantage of any of the 3 inventory services offered by the Club (at no cost to you!), but you hadn't registered before, you can now register for those services.

Information / My WFF CheckList Plus

The WFFCC now offers a new inventory/checklist: My WFF CheckList Plus

http://weeforestfolkclub.org/lists/checklistplus.php

It's a hybrid of My WFF CheckList and My Personal Master List, looking like an expanded CheckList with additional fields like Location, Price, and Date--just a little more information than the CheckList. Enough to be able to tell at a glance what you have, where it is, when you bought it, and how much you paid. If you've used the CheckList in the past, you can relax: That information is carried over to CheckList Plus, meaning you don't have to re-enter it. It's great for people who like the CheckList format and would like to see a little more information, but not everything.

There's even a way to download and upload information in CSV format in case you want to transfer data from My Personal Master List or just have an archive copy of your CheckList Plus.

As always, if you encounter problems, please let me know.
