Auction Tracker - remove bad entries
"temporarily disabled" for.... months at least? Is this ever going to be re-instituted?
Tons of bad prices (3 for 3k) and ridiculous Kyndal-esque overpricing in a few items.

Probably means the Wiki. https://wiki.project1999.com/Special:AuctionTracker
You can see removing bad entries function is disabled here And theres pages that look like this Wurm Scale Coat as an example

Yes, thanks Kav.
Looking back at some of my logs, it seems the "3 meaning 3k" is because the auctioneer actually used "3K" in his message. Seems the auction tracker could fix that. It's not too hard a regex.

I'd be happy to fix it also. Programmer of many years, SQL fluent. No PHP though.

Should just fork or use use http://ahungry.com/eqauctions then use that data to populate the wiki.

There are getting to be some ridiculous prices messing up the graphs. Can we get some programmers on this task? I volunteer. I'm a web and DB programmer. If it has simply been deactivated, maybe there is commented out code that explains why that can be uncommented? In a perfect world... One simply needs to look no further than the main landing page on the most active items to see that it's not functioning as intended. | ||

Unfortunately there are just two options here: the wiki or the "make your own auction site" route.
As has been mentioned, the "make your own auction site" path is easier than it has ever been. Before no one even knew if such sites could sustain enough interest to be worthwhile. Now, with AHungry and (formerly) P99 Tunnel we know they can succeed, and on top of that (as was mentioned) there's even OSS code you can copy to get started. And whether you use that code or not, you can use any language you want. But as far as the wiki goes, to change the auction tracker (even to just re-enable the price-fixing piece) you need the ability to install custom (PHP) extensions on the wiki. I know of only two people with that power: Rogean and Ravhin. The source code for the existing extension is freely available: http://wiki.project1999.com/utils/wikiUtils.php. That's not the problem; the problem is ... well it's three-part:
I'd love to help with this, but I sort of despise PHP, plus I've begged both Rogean and Ravhin for enough wiki improvements already. But I'd love to see someone else (who can tolerate PHP) take up the torch [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
