General Notes about GarageSale 8.4

GarageSale 8.4 is the first GarageSale version that support eBay’s new authorization method (OAuth), which is required to access any of the new APIs that eBay recently released (e.g. getting managed payment status, or searching the eBay Product API).

Once you refreshed your eBay access token in GarageSale 8.4 from the Accounts section of the Preferences window, GarageSale will be able to ask eBay, if your account has managed payments enabled. If so, it won’t nag you to select a payment method or payment profile anymore.

What’s new in this GarageSale 8.4

New Features

  • supports eBay’s new authentication mechanism, which is required for newer eBay API calls
  • fixes “Product Search” feature by using new eBay API
  • GarageSale generates a ‘mobile summary’ from the first 800 characters of your listing description when uploading listings, which does not include GarageSale’s version identifier string
  • the ‘Condition description’ attribute can be removed from a listing with the Revise command
  • added a new Preference settings (under eBay > Advanced) that prevents automatic switching to ‘Live’ view when listings are started

Improvements

  • Order section: added context menu entries in the Orders section outline view to change order state (e.g. “shipped”) for selected orders
  • GarageSale will prevent you from starting auction-style listings, when the auto-cancel feature is enabled for such a listing
  • Attributes window: ‘autocomplete’ now works for certain attributes (e.g. ‘Artist’ attribute in LP/Records section)
  • added AppleScript command to manipulate shipping weights
  • text entered in the “user properties” area of the inspector is now searchable and can be used in smart groups
  • the ‘Reveal Original’ command is available from the overview context menu (middle area) in the listing section
  • the number of images used in a listing is shown in Editor mode
  • when GarageSale is already running, images dragged onto its Dock icon will get added to active listing
  • category panel and inspector now displays category id when the category was deleted by eBay
  • the Listing CSV Import panel remembers what separator character (coma, semicolon) was last used
  • the ‘Copy Listing Link’ and ‘Show Listing in Browser’ command in the outline view works with multiple listings selected

Bug Fixes

  • Synching: re-worked conflict algorithm to reduce the number of times the Conflict window appears
  • fixed problems with importing specifics from XML files
  • fixed a crash when category search returned a single result (e.g when searching for a category id)
  • fixed an issue where a click on the “shipped” checkbox in the orders section was not reflected on eBay
  • fixed possible crash when Attributes panel was open when GarageSale was about to quit
  • various crash fixes

Thanks for using GarageSale,
The GarageSale team

Thanks Ilya
Fantastic Work.

the ‘Copy Listing Link’ in the outline view command works with multiple listings selected
AND
Show Listing in Browse also works with multiple listings selected

This is going to save me so much time.
