  1. Marketplace sales have dropped again. Some of my friends told me they couldn't find things in Marketplace search results. Please fix this issue.
  2. I can log into the main grid and websites, but can't into beta grid. Anyone else having this issue today?
  3. Still, my sales are only less than halfway compared to before. How about others? It seems the store items aren't showing up at all, and the few sales might only happen from referrals.
  4. I always love to see customers use their own textures with my clothing, so I set those as modify.
  5. I feel things are recovering now, but still not as they used to be.
  6. My marketplace sales reduced around 90% since March 21st, it was fixed on 23rd but again the sales dropped dramatically. I wonder if it's due to the "Marketplace and LindeX Issues" already known by Lindens. https://status.secondlifegrid.net/incidents/hfzrggrxtcx8 Has anyone else had the same problem?
  7. Is this just me or are there any others getting this error message when trying to log into SL? I tried both Firestorm and SL Viewer, tried alters, tried different sims, tried to login beta grid, cleaned cache, etc., but none of those worked. So far I don't see any issue mentioned in the status page. Recently I had to file multiple tickets due to the avatar in the beta grid looking white bulb. Therefore I'm just asking here first instead of making LL staff busy. Update: After I reset the router (by pressing the hole using a needle), the error was gone and I was able to log in.
  8. I'm making this vehicle object for a friend's vehicle mini-game. She needs the physics as simple as possible (cube) and it should be fitted to the vehicle's surroundings. Especially if the physics doesn't fit with the bottom of it, the vehicle's treads either float or go underground as she said. When I set the physics in the uploader, it shows as exactly fit to the mesh object as I needed. (bellow screenshot) But once uploaded, the physics is above the treads. (bellow screenshot) So I tried to add physics in all the different ways, "from file", "Cube", "Bounding Box" and the step2 and step3 settings. But always end up as in the above photo. She can simply add a prim, but it will add one more Land Impact, so she prefers the built-in physics. Is this some SL bug or is there any solution to fix this? Highly appreciate any help. PS: After messing with the mesh for a while, I just thought to add 8 tiny triangles at each corner, to expand its bounding box. So that way I could able to fit the physics to the treads. Now when I rez the model on the ground, it looks like a bit floating as the triangles touching the ground. As my friend concerns about the physics of the vehicle, this way it will work. Besides, I remember most of the vehicles float a bit upward than the ground upon rez, but once touch, it hits the ground. Still, I like to understand why the uploader doesn't add the physics to the exact bounding box and instead shrunk the physics.
  9. My sales are a little better than before. I think it is because most customers learned how to find products by directly visiting the creator's marketplace store instead searching.
  10. I think OP's idea is very important in case the full perm script sales. There are lots of old full perm scripts which are useful for newbies to learn.
  11. My sales dropped massively. Seems LL won't fix this any more.
  12. I have a somewhat popular parcel with around 10000 traffic rank until the last March. But during the previous few weeks, it decreased to 4000 something. I heard that LL stopped counting bots for traffic but I never used bots. Also, I didn't see much reduction in visitors to make the traffic rank lower than half. Then I visited some other sims and the situation is also similar. One of my favorite beaches (Golden Sun) which had around 40K traffic rank now has only 7K. Sandbox Shiromani had around 10K traffic, now around 1K. I'm very sure none of those sims use bots. During the summer the SL users are going out and are less likely to be online than in winter. But I saw in Firestorm that the SL online users are still around 50K, which is still a higher number. Is there any reason for this traffic count reduction when I can't see any visitor numbers reduction?
  13. Lindelban asked the same question that we are asking here But they put some answers too.
  14. Thanks for all your replies. And great to see Mods also replying. As per all your answers, I set a sub role as Scripter and enabled "Deed objects to group" and a few other Abilities that she'll need. I hope this will work.
  15. Greetings everyone, I have this question and I hope someone helps me with this. One of my friends, a scripter, is helping me to create a unique parcel security system. To test it she needs to be an owner of a land. But she isn't owning a land at this time. I have a mainland parcel, which a group owns and I'm the only group owner. I can add her as another group owner so she can do her tests as a landowner. She isn't a premium member. My problem is will she get billed for mainland parcel fees if I add her to the group as an owner? Thanks.
  16. Still not working properly for me. For example, I searched "Signature Shirt" and I got this list as "relevance" but earlier it shows shirts that have more ratings and more sales. Seems like "ratings" and "number of sales" are not included in the priority of sorting.

  18. If it is publically available as the beta grid / Agni, SL residents can give feedback through this community forum. The problem is so far LL don't test how the new marketplace updates work for the community before they make it permanent. The developers can only assure about how the coding work, but not about how the majority of the SL customers feel about it. If the test site is publically available, all of those issues won't happen.
  19. I wonder why doesn't Linden Lab have a beta marketplace to test the new updates? It should be a mirror of the marketplace website but disabled the buy and edit options. If LL has a test site, they can first add the new update to that test site and then they can publish about it in the relevant community forum then let the concerned residents to test it and put their opinions on the forum thread. That way LL and merchants won't have to deal with this much financial losses as well the regular customers won't get bad search experiences. Also, the LL web developers won't have to drink so much coffee on many nights
  20. Oh damn, I didn't see it. Once they realize the new method is bad, it will be too late. As regular SL residents will start visiting mainstream stores and they'll get used with it, and they never worry to check in marketplace any more.
  21. They did the right thing by reverting back to the old search method. But for some keywords, I still see it works as the older way. eg: Maitreya Towel
  22. If you do so, LL will get 10% of sales commission and you'll get back only 90% of the value. I think you can have the casper vend system and use some sandbox to redeliver items. Also you can choose any product, and give a gift to the customers who bought it. Put the gift into the product package and add a notecard by explaining about the gift, then click the link in "Schedule Redelivery" on the marketplace product page.
  23. Please return to the old search method ASAP. Because, once regular SL residents lose their confidence in the marketplace search results, they not gonna use it again. They'll simply ask friends and visit mainstream stores. This is not a beta grid to test. The new update already made a huge impact. Thousands of dedicated small merchants who depend on the marketplace, going to be eliminated from trading. Also, LL will lose lots of income as big stores not gonna pay commissions to LL for Casper vend sales.
  24. I sent a ticket to LL about the marketplace search issue and here is the reply I got. Based on that reply, we have to assume that the regular marketplace search shows the products that have at least one searching keyword but not all of those. Also it seems like the search results sorting totally ignores the product ratings, sales frequency, total revenue made, view frequency etc. When someone uses keywords to search something through any search engine, most of the time they expect all the keywords to be included in the search result. Only very few times they expect at least one keyword to be included. For example, if we search 'angry cat face' (without quotes) in google image search, we get exactly 'angry cat face'. (I'm sure most merchants are looking at LL developers as this) If we get some other faces that are not angry and not the cat, we are no longer going to use google image search. That is going to happen for LL's marketplace. Regular SL residents have no idea they should use quotes or logic gates such as AND, OR, XOR, NOT, NAND, NOR, XNOR etc they simply ask friends and visit mainstream stores. The result is, 1. Within a few days of bad experiences in the marketplace search results, customers aren't going to return to the marketplace ever again even if LL fix it to back because they getting used with visiting the mainstream stores. The new update already made that impact. 2. LL reduces the revenue (because Inworld Vendor boards aren't gonna pay LL a sales commission). 3. Thousands of small-scale merchants who depend on the marketplace, going to be vanished. Therefore I insist to return to the old search method instead the new one ASAP. PS: the following image is useful for the LL's developers. * I beg your pardon for the grammar issues as English is my second language.
  25. My sales are zero today. No one at least tested a demo.
