Disappearing listings

We added a special repair mode in the just released GarageSale 7.0.8 Beta 3:

It works like this:

  • Hold down the control key on your keyboard when starting GarageSale
  • check the “Find Orphaned listings” checkbox
  • Click “Continue”

GarageSale will now check all your listings if they are part of the current group hierarchy. You won’t see the main window while this process is going on, but you can look at the Console.app window from output from GarageSale. We will log a status message every 1000 listings checked. If orphaned listings are found, those are put insert at the end of your current hierarchy.

This process takes about 5 minutes for 60,000 listings on a MacBook Pro with 16 GB Ram and an SDD. Depending your Mac’s speed and library size, your milage will vary.
