Dear GarageSale Users,

Beta 7 of GarageSale 7 is available for you to download from this URL (or by using the built-in updater if you are already running an earlier beta version GS 7):

https://downloads.iwascoding.com/downloads/GarageSale_7.0b7.zip

We’d appreciate your early feedback, so if you have a few minutes to spare, please give GarageSale 7 a try. Your GarageSale 6 installation will not be altered by trying out GarageSale 7.

What’s new since the last Beta release

  • fixed another round of rotation related issues with photos taken on iPhones (if you are still seeing wrongly rotated thumbnails or images in the preview, you need to delete the image from your listing and re-add it once again)
  • double-clicking an inventory item in the overview table works
  • searching for inventory product works

What’s new in GarageSale 7

  • completely modernized interface with instant error reporting
  • a new custom database engine, which hopefully deals better with large amounts of data and allows us to adapt to eBay changes more quickly
  • GarageSale 7 does away with the template/auction differentiation - it only offers listings, which can either be running or not
  • a new Orders sections which shows information about purchased items and buyers
  • Reports can generate diagrams in addition to text tables
  • automatic update of eBay category information as needed
  • listing design are now optimized for mobile devices
  • local live validation of most eBay errors in new “Preflight” panel
  • listing images can be edit using image editing apps installed on your Mac and with image editing extensions
  • listing images can be copied and pasted between images
  • support for barcodes on the variation level
  • you can copy specific settings from one listing and paste them into other listings
  • much more

Just had some crashing when dragging some templates over to scheduler.

Whats with the scheduler anyway, am I missing something as the only way I can get things into the scheduler is to drag them over int the scheduler window which is a pain to keep at the front. Is there an add to scheduler like in V6 ?

Hmm, I don’t see these crashes in our crash database yet, but it sometimes it takes a while until they are visible there. Do you perhaps see crashes from GarageSale 7 in your home directory at Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports? If so, could you please post them here?

We thought having the scheduler in an extra window would be easier, because you wouldn’t need to scroll down your huge list of listings until you hit the scheduler section. Seems that’s not the case for you?

In GarageSale 7, you can select any number of listings, click on the ‘+’ button toolbar and choose “New Scheduler Event”. This will create a new event with the selected listings already added. Would this work for you?

Thats it, that works for me great.
