Hey Nev- "New Today" searches still not working. Only pulling down a handful of results instead of everythinbg new. Can you maybe take a look?


I've run some quick tests and it seems to work ok for all the tests I ran.

Can you give me the sieve details where this situation occurs?

Thanks for this beta. I had forgotten how difficult eBay searches were when using their own tools.

Thanks, Nev.

Below is the search that is not working. It will only pull down 60 listings maximum.

By chance, I happened to fire up an older laptop with AS installed. I updated AS and it runs New Today searches perfectly fine.

They look the same to me. What am I missing???

OK, this appears to be fixed when I type "xx" in the sellers to exclude field. Any idea why that would be?

Ok, this was a tricky one.

Basically, AS was tripping up on Sponsored items. By putting in the seller exclusion, eBay wouldn't return Sponsored items, so it would work as normal.

Techy bit:
The thing with the Sponsored items is, eBay actually has the word Sponsored against each item, it's just not visible in most cases. So I can't just search for that word as a marker to ignore. The tricky bit comes with the css styling that determines whether the Sponsored text is visible - the style class name is different every time you get a new result page. Luckily it's defined in the html header. So I'm using that info to figure out whether something is sponsored or not to ignore.

Upshot - new beta is out!
Please let me know if it fixes your issue and thanks for the help in tracking it down.
