Creating Product Auction Categories: |
|
 
Auction Product Categories:
Auction Product Categories are created up to 3 levels
deep.
Ex: Wholesale
-> Consumer Electronics -> Televisions
eBay Auction
results from a GetSearchResults call for this
category can be obtained by:
- Using
an actual eBay CategoryID
- Using search terms
you predifine.
Once the category is created, a folder is created in this categroy tree and
the template files are copied to that folder.
See SEO optomized directury structure. |

Displaying Results:
Results
are Displayed using the Lisiting
or Grid
Layout.

page (product page).

Refreshing Auction Listings: |
|
Creating
Tasks:
When the visitor browses shop site, the auction
listings he sees are pulled from shops database,
if there are no available auctions in the
database, a task is saved to the tasks database
table (get fresh category results task), and
the user is shown auctions from that categories Main
category.
Note if there are no available records
for auctions in Main
categories, the eBay api call is automaticaly
made, the results saved to the database, and the
user is shown the results. |
| |
Running
Tasks:
The Schema-Viewer Task tool is a
multi-threaded application that parses the shops
database Task Table.
The task table is parsed at threaded intervals,
(the delay is editable, i.e. 5 seconds, 20
seconds, etc.),
and the necessary eBay GetSearchResults calls
are made to update the shops database. |
