Actually, I would like to see these features for all discount codes, not just free shipping. A feature where you can set minimum $$ amounts for codes to work and where codes can only work on qualifying products.

I don't always have time to go through every order and mark it as paid, shipped, in progress, etc. I just want to be able to archive orders that I never want to see again. That way when I go to the main page I will automatically see the open orders. I don't like having a list of 100's of orders. Some that are still in progress but end up on page 3.

There are free stat/counter sites out there that will work with Hyenacart. I use statcounter.com It give me a pre-made code that I put into the "store design" page and I can see how many times a page has been loaded. There are probably better sites, statcounter seems to have problems "seeing" visitors from Facebook, but it's free and easy to use.

I'd love to see this happen! We have vendors loosing $ in currency exchange. It'd be so great to be able to set the currency according to the individual vendor instead of the congo! :)

Please make this applicable to standard sales as well as auctions.

Yes!

Yes, loyalty points program! and sellers can choose which items are valid point items :)

I just realized that I can do this now. So thanks! Haha

I see batch edit, but I'd really like quick edit too. Thanks!

I was hoping for the listing information to be printed in the invoice. Is this a possibility? Thanks!

Would definitely like to see this one! There are a lot of stores out there that have a lot of categories that stay empty for long periods of times. It would be nice to hide/unhide these when needed instead of heaving to delete the entire thing and make a new one when we had more items to list in that category.

Yes that would be nice. I like to click on the pop up date calendar thing but it disappeared.

I would really LOVE this feature, it would help with all of my patterns I sell and buy! No waiting for emails to be sent individually etc... this would save a lot of waiting time for customers, and time for sellers to send it.

I'm disappointed to see this. I realize that buyers can move items from Pending by placing the order. Often, customers click BIN and then pay through other means - mostly through a direct invoice for a variety of reasons (combined shipping with other orders, adding on to a custom order, local pick-up, etc. etc) After the customer has paid, it's quite unprofessional to ask them to go to their HC purchases and jump through some hoops so that I can have an actual history of their order on HC. A simple click should be able to transfer that Pending order over to my Order History.

It would also be nice to specify a specific product that a coupon code can be used on, rather than the whole order.

I also would love to see a one time option for coupon codes. I have a fan of the week, that I have to manually delete the code once used. It would be awesome, if I didn't have to remember to delete it. Thank!

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!! <3

To further expand this request and make it really functional, could you please add that option to the drop down menu when sorting the orders as well as the batch functions (like where I can check 15 orders and mark them all shipped - can I also mark them all in process?). Thank you!!

Should have mentioned also, perhaps having some way to ensure people only load MAX px width images would help make this better for loading purposes?? I don't know if that is possible or not...

I agree it would be really nice for it to default to view all instead of 10. :)

LOL, you are one step ahead of me!! I completely missed that! Thanks a bunch :D

Sorry, clarification, because I realized what I said may be confusing! Basically, I have items in which the customer must choose 6 different scents to go in their product. I can see the first three of their choices in the "view order" screen, but I cannot see the last three. I've checked the emails I get and any other record of the order, but those last three just don't come up! I have to email the customer to get the information. :)

Super, thanks!

PLEASE DELETE. I've figured something out :) Thanks!

Thank you Karen! OMG! So excited!

It would also be nice if the customer's name and address was still on the order page, what happened to it??

will the removed listings then go into "past items" so people can see them, or do they completely disappear as if you have deleted them?

"The tags have been functioning that way for quite a while (at least a year). It ensures that your listings come up when a shopper searches by the name of the main store." That's fine when it is my own store but I have MY stores name in the tags on the congos I belong to. It is all run together and VERY annoying.

Would LOVE a one-time use coupon, and definitely would love to have tiers for percentage off. I do 10% off orders over such and such dollars all the time, but I have to rely on the honor system.

Combined from more options for coupon codes:

I was just going to add this one but saw it was already recommended! A one-time use coupon code, or one-time per customer use code would be AWESOME! Otherwise I have to write down each persons coupon code and mark if they can only use it once, then pay attention to when they finally use it so I can go back and delete it.

Combined from more options for coupon codes:

I would really love a way to have one time use coupon codes or once per customer coupon codes. I am giving a special coupon for testers to use on their first normal order but the only way to do it as a coupon code also allows anyone to use the code and lets people use it more than once.

Combined from coupon code:

I would love an option to have a coupon code expire once it has been used.

LOVE everything about this suggestion--especially being able to add an expiration date for the code. That has become a HUGE problem in my store (I forget to delete a code, and/or customers reuse old codes or codes they were only supposed to use once).

This is a really great idea!

Combined from Put a start & end time/date on discount codes:

Yes, please! It would be so wonderful to have this and not have to remember to go back and remove the code.

Combined from Codes:

I would love this! I often give a one time use code to someone and it would be great to not have to manually go and delete it once it's been used.

YES! Would love this :)

Maybe there could be a feature to specify certain codes applying to certain items? Like how the stocking page has the delete and preview check boxes... maybe there could be the codes listed and the ability to check (one or more) boxes? It could resemble the stocking page but in the discount codes page.

This could get complicated. Because for the most part I do NOT want my customers to be able to use more than one code... it could frequently lead to me giving my merchandise away for less than cost.

you can select "all" on the top right side to see them all on one page. I had the same problem until someone told me this :)

Past, new, current fixed. Congos I can go to view/edit item (old)and have the old way come up which is much faster. Don't have the view/edit item (old) choice on my admin Healing Gems. And what's going on down in tags...the Congo's name keep's coming up even though I erased it over and over. I am Healing Gems and I don't want the congos name in my tags. I just don't have the time to waste on these listings that take longer to list than before. My wish is for everything to just go back like it was. Peace, Darice

Most of my items don't have an end date.... so when they sell they just stay there forever. The other difficulty is that if we don't have a very active shop, we have to pay the full monthly fee just to go in and REMOVE items that have ended or sold.

The only comment I'd make on this is as long as the items are still viewable somewhere (like closed auctions/drawings), so that if people are going back in to see the status or who won, they can still view it (or if the winner wants to view what they won, etc.)

Yes - thank you!

I agree that only 1 person should be allowed to be logged into an account. There are other sites that will actually log you out automatically if anyone else logs in, or at least warn you that your account has been accessed at another address. To me, this is a HUGE issue of privacy and safety in regards to accounts.

Thank you!!

Combined from Auctions and Drawings - Clear out on End Dates or set time afterwards:

It would be nice if the auctions and drawings would clear out on their own instead of having to go in a manually delete them or set the preview to 0, on congos and regular stores.

The all listings tab would be nice if it would stay there when I'm adding items. I always copy my templates and then go in and fix each seperate one for my current stocking. I am currently having to copy a template in the all items tab, then after I click copy, it takes me back to the current listings tab, of which I have none. Its just another click that is irritating and time consuming.

I haven't had this issue.

I agree with this! I would LOVE a start and stop on the discount codes!!!

I would really like to see this option as well. In my etsy customers can choose their currency, could hc add that same feature? I hate to send my Canadian customers to shop at etsy all the time due to this one issue. Otherwise I have to accept payment manually and that sometimes cause over sells.

As long as this is completely optional. I don't accept other currency via paypal so wouldn't want to confuse anyone.

I have actually had multiple people totally lost/confused when trying to check out and have actually sent me multiple emails asking if I am going to invoice them, how do they pay, they don't have a paypal account etc. It really might be a good option. Most of my confused customers have been from nations like Austria, Sweden, etc. although I have had several confused Canadians as well, LOL :)

Combined from stop order numbers with no info:

Is there any way we can stop orders from coming through with no customer info? I get them often and there should at least be a email address that we can invoice. My listings are set as buy it now and it makes no difference at all. I even had one that had comments from the customer about how nice my stuff is but no info at all and she of course she did not pay.

I think that an order shouldn't be able to be completed without entering payment information and/or contact information - if they choose not to register it with the site, that's fine, they can still be a "guest" and not have an account.

If you could set it for buying in advanced, instead of right away, then that would help figure out what is good and bad, you can have a set amount of featured spots available to buy each day for a wek in advance, the vendor can select which day they want the featured spot, based on how many/if any is left for that day (have to buy 24 - 48 hours in advance from the time they want the spot to be featured) and submit the pic they would like to use, that way your team will have 24 - 48 hours to review the photos submitted and either approve or deny.

I've actually not found galleries helpful at all. I wind up putting all of my fabric options on another site and link out to it. I would love to be able to have it all within HC!

It would also be nice to be able to have more than 5 pictures in each gallery so it could be more function for using for fabric choices. Also being able to comment under each picture would be helpful, too, so I could put the name of each fabric selection under each picture so it's easier for customers to choose which they like.

Combined from Definable Thumbnail Image widths?:

Should have mentioned also, perhaps having some way to ensure people only load MAX px width images would help make this better for loading purposes?? I don't know if that is possible or not...

Okay, sorry I didn't see this when i made the same request. I appreciate your explanation! I would rather faster downloads for customers than it being easier on me. :) Wish there was another way to make it work...

Would it be possible to automatically set the desired size for the java upload for an entire congo?

I would love this! I often give a one time use code to someone and it would be great to not have to manually go and delete it once it's been used.

Combined from I agree we need an iPhone app:

I'd love an app for my iPhone to shop via HC :)

and one for Windows 7... :)

And iPhone/iPod!

I definitely agree about being able to identify a repeat customer. I like to tailor my responses to those people and I can't remember (or search for) every customer when they order.

Combined from Batch Edit Order History:

Allow sellers to batch edit order history so we can quickly update items as shipped or cancelled all from one page rather than clicking on each individual item in the Order History.

I absolutely love the suggestion of adding listing templates. I have a lot of similar items, so copying is something I do... the end result isn't always pretty though, and ends up being reformatted. /sigh

If not Batch edit, then at least save the settings so that if I am in July 2011 then when I click back it should go back to July 2011 rather than the current month.

Combined from Easier sorting of past orders:

It'd be nice to be able to quickly see if a customer is a repeat customer or just easier sorting of past orders overall. Right now orders placed on the 31st of a month are often on the page for the month they were ordered as well as on the next month's orders.

I would really love to see this feature as well!

YAY!

I currently have "additional hosting" elsewhere to overcome the insufficient number of info pages I can have, but I DO agree this would be wonderful to have more extra pages built right in. Despite the html knowledge required on info pages here to neatly set up my information- it is still far less work than coding an ENTIRE page to fit with my shop here! I would love to see this if it is possible! Not to say I expect an unlimited number of extra pages, but more than what is currently available would be wonderful!

I SO agree with the first poster (being able to move items between single stores and multiple congos)!! I have my own cart and stock 4 different congos each month so that would save me SO much time, and headache!! Please Please Please consider offering this!!

Would love to be able to login with 1 username/password, and be able to access everything- and be able to transfer listings between my main cart and my congos.

Combined from customizing shipping by destination:

Is there a way to customize shipping for additional items by destination? Adding a second item changes shipping costs dramatically for international locations. Right now, I have additional shipping charges for international buyers listed in Choices, on top of the additional item charge. But buyers don't always choose the right combination of shipping options, and if I have to send a new invoice, it's inconvenient and I incur another PayPal fee. It would be ideal to have the cart calculate shipping by location and weight automatically. Also, do Choices function differently now? It used to be that if the buyer chose the "additional item, international" choice, they would just get charged that cost once. Now they are charged that fee per item that they purchase.

and Canada Post

Even though other sites can do this, I believe it should still be default for hyenacart to do this on their own.

Google Analytics will do this for you for free

Music can be added via html coding by the vendor themselves if they would like it in their shop and should not be site wide forced. Please no.

Please NO!

Another PLEASE NO MUSIC. If I am in the mood for music, then I have my own choices playing and I don't want to be forced to listen to something someone else picked out. I leave sites that do this, it is very annoying.

PLEASE NO. If music starts on a page, I leave. :(

I don't want costs to go up, but if they have to I'd rather it be optional.

I do not see this helping anything with the pictures. I store could just pay the extra fee and still have shoddy product and picture. This would be a useless feature.

YES! Would love this :)

If not Batch edit, then at least save the settings so that if I am in July 2011 then when I click back it should go back to July 2011 rather than the current month.

Yes, adding the ability to hide shopper count, but allowing the sellers to see it if its hidden. And, raising the amount of shoppers past 100

I think this is a nice idea, however, I just wanted to add that it would be nice for the shop owner to still be able to see this number (perhaps on the admin page), even if they choose to have it hidden at the bottom of the store pages.

Combined from Would it be possible to opt out of the "Quantity in stock" on some items?:

PLEASE DELETE. I've figured something out :) Thanks!

I would prefer at least if the amount available wasn't shown until the customer clicked on the actual item description/page. I don't think it's necessary to show how many are available till they're ready to add it/them to their cart. It's just more information cluttering the pages. Likewise, in the categories view, I'd like to see the number of listings per category removed/optional. Either I'm interested in what the seller has in the line of hair-care or not. It shouldn't matter if I've got 3 or 30 items there. I'm generally in favor of a less is more approach in design, and one of the things that I think makes HC look ugly, is that there is so much text lying around that doesn't need to be there.

This would be a nice feature if it is "optional".

I love the idea of a discount for repeat customers. In fact, I have a discount code I give them, and just hope they don't pass it along to other people. So far so good.

If this means a way for customers to earn points for refering new customers then I'm for it. I'd also love to see a way to set up a customer rewards program for repeat customers.

Maybe there could be a feature to specify certain codes applying to certain items? Like how the stocking page has the delete and preview check boxes... maybe there could be the codes listed and the ability to check (one or more) boxes? It could resemble the stocking page but in the discount codes page.

This could get complicated. Because for the most part I do NOT want my customers to be able to use more than one code... it could frequently lead to me giving my merchandise away for less than cost.

Make it so that it does it so many days after the item is marked shipped :)

Again, you rock :)

Combined from Congo Checkout:

A lot of my customers are going back and adding more diapers to their orders within our congo (but from my shop) and can't find their way back to their selections so they can pay. Anyway to either add a cart per store within a congo or make it a bit easier for them to find the ones they got so they can pay for them?

Agreed.

This needs to go beyond country. It needs to go by a postal code system.I can have a 7 dollar difference in shipping charge from one side of the country to the other. A module that calculates from the sender PC to the recipient PC is the only accurate option that will prevent overcharges to customers (there can still be a handling fee added IF desired) as well as protect sellers from the guessing game roulette or from spending 15 additioanl minutes doing a shipping calc to half a dozen or more locales to get the numbers for listings.

I don't think the name matters, either. What does 'Etsy' mean? Nothing, to me. I think it's likely better to stay with Hyenacart.

I think it would be wrong to change the name of Hyena Cart. Hyena Cart is where my stores are and a part of. I am proud of it and have no problems explaining it. If I decide I don't want my stores sponsored on Hyena Cart, I will take them else where.

This would be great! As it is now I kind of average the cost of shipping, sometimes I come out ahead but more often I lose money. I would like to add: I'd really like it not to default to the cheapest shipping option for the buyer. I had to stop offering first class because international shoppers always choose it. It seems like an option for them, because HC always defaults to the cheapest option available, instead of making you pick one from the drop down with no default, which I think would help.

Although you *can* put it when you check out with Paypal I've had countless times (as a seller) when the buyer still got confused with shipping (even with the shipping shown in the listing). Having it integrated in HC would be more seamless and if it were doing the check out process there wouldn't be the "oh, now I have to pay shipping?" question that I've had customers experience when reaching the payment page.

Yes, I very often have international customers accidentally choosing first class US shipping. It is time consuming and seems unprofessional to have to contact them and then charge them more. Most often I will cover the difference and just pay it myself and that really adds up!

It would be nice if it was something along the lines of Dharma Trading Co, where you enter the zip/country and it shows you all the shipping options/costs.

at the very least I'd like to see the correct shipping country mandated for where the shopper is registered. I have US shoppers choosing shipping to Canada at least a couple of times a week because it is the cheaper option so it defaults to it. Invoicing after the fact for $1.30 seems petty but it adds up to $135 a year I am missing out on because of this. Etsy automatically chooses the correct shipping cost for you.

Combined from Combined HC Feedback reminder:

Make it so that it does it so many days after the item is marked shipped :)

Combined from Combined HC Feedback reminder:

A message showing the things that need feedback left - not by store, just by item.

I agree with Comment #1... while I would appreciate a feature like this, even if it was in any way a manual thing, I would prefer to be able to select when a notice like this was sent for basically the same reason already mentioned. I would hate to see this oddly sent when (per my policy or custom listing) my customer has not yet received their item and are already being asked for feedback.

I do agree that this would be a good change, however, perhaps it would be helpful if someone could tell us how to ensure our images are high quality. I know that my pictures look fine in my store (not blurry or grainy), but when I see them in the "favorites/spots" area, they all look like crud. I've wondered why that is and what I can do to fix it, but wasn't sure who to ask.

I had to go read the policies on etsy on this one. Every vendor/seller has the right to purchase the featured shop/showcase picture (whatever they call it on etsy)the picture just has to meet certain standards, if it doesn't meet these standards then etsy removes the picture and you are out your money. This can also happen if someone flags or reports your picture.

This one is very important to me!

Oh gosh, PLEASE yes! I've gotten quite a few comments from people on FB saying they have no interest in registering for yet another account so they won't buy from HC. I think it would be great!

I see lots of sites that let a new customer register during their initial checkout process- like when you go to checkout, you either put in your username and password, or you click "New Customer" where you input all your information, and set up a password, and it then continues the checkout process as usual.

Agree with the other person's comment...we need to make sure we have some security with those who are buying our items, but if the shopper needs to wait to be "approved", etc., they may lose out on a buy and not want to return to buy something later.

I loved the ease of use, and the pic quality, but I couldn't get the pics to upload in the right order. Like, I uploaded all four pics at once, but they showed up in my store in messed-up order from how I chose them. Went back and tried again, same thing.

It seems the most recent versions of java are not working with the java uploader. This should be fixed within the next few weeks! Sorry for the inconvenience.

Combined from Larger image size choices for the Java uploader:

Larger image size choices for the Java uploader would be great. I like 490pixel width for the main image in my listings, but I have to go through Photobucket to do this. If you allowed larger images I would totally upgrade my account. Thanks! Suzi MacDougall www.puddlefoot.com

I have tried the HC image uploader and the picture quality was HORRIBLE compared to photo bucket. I will not be using it again until I know it is fixed.

With all the changes, I'm unable to list new items...I've been trying all day and also opened a ticket. HELP!

I agree that the site could use some freshening up, but I don't exactly agree with a name change. I fear changing the name is website suicide in terms of rankings and all of that that HC has built up over the years already. I don't think there is anything wrong with the name, would just like to see a new look and feel to the graphics, layout, and color scheme.
