New shop functions in progress!

the whole seeing prices which are 0 is now almost in effect. right now it's kinda buggy and keeps switching back and forth between normal order and...

http://www.neopets.com/market.phtml?ord ... our&lim=30

that's right, order by price! so all of your 0 NP items will be on page 1! of course, the normal mode is

http://www.neopets.com/market.phtml?type=your&lim=30

... but as of now, the links at the top are all screwy and won't work normally. i'm wondering what kind of other "order bys" will be available!


EDIT: this just came to me, but if this belongs in the "unreleased thread" you can lock it. if not, then it's all good =)

Hmm I'm expecting rarity maybe? Alphabetical? Item type? Anything else obvious?

They also seem to be working on a newer, more efficient way of selecting a shopkeeper:

That is a huge improvement over the old system in my opinion. I may actually try to look for a better shop keeper now. :)

Amazingly helpful way of picking shopkeepers. They also added all the ones that were released but not actually added (i.e. Gadgadsbogen)

I like when they do things to make the site more user-friendly!

Definitely like the way we can view the various shpkeepers now. Hoping they will finish up soon, the shuffling of items still bugs me.

I really like the new shopkeeper system as well. However, it's definately not perfect.

For one, petpets should have their own categories. They aren't Neopets... Same with the Faeries. People generally aren't going to know that they need to look under Colours-> Faerie to get to the actual faeries.

Another thing, the actual links that you can click on the left should only take you to the actual pets/colors that are the respective pets/colors. The category "Pea" for instance, (http://www.neopets.com/select_shopkeepe ... search=Pea) shouldn't really be displaying all of the peasant shopkeepers...

Still room for some perfection, but it's a lot better than before for sure.

After playing around with it for a while, I noticed all the things you just mentioned. Hopefully they tweak it a bit.
