Still optimizing collection pages. Also found a bug when bulk adding figures it wasn't saving the new array structure properly

eBay deprecating a lot of APIs so I had to rewrite a lot of the code.

Adjusted stats page for Marvel so it didnt show BAF complete figures, but added dedicated table at bottom
Added Marvel lines
Somewhat of a big change because now I have spawned off the site to include Star Wars Black Series and Marvel Legends with plans to add Transformers. I had to do a lot of work refactoring the code to handle different genres. Some of the UI had to be copied, but the backend code and DB are mostly reusable at this point. I'm hoping it is as useful to the Marvle collectors as it has been for the Star Wars world.

Another adjustment for Where to Buy section for mobile. Also added support for cases which was a PITA to do
Fussing around with the WTB section and formatting. Fixes for monitoring tools

Added links to Amazon for items that are available via prime
Minor amp styling app
Seperated the variation and knockoff guides

Fixed amp issue when ebay auction comes back with no image, don't display in carousel
More tinkering with the movers and shakers. I found that it didnt seem accurate unless you had a detailed view of daily auctions (as opposed to avg by month). Because of this I changed the logic to look at current month vs previous month, but smartly thought about year as it's Jan and the previous year is 2016. Also, no movers/shakers in the beginning of a new month until there is at least 4 auctions

Added search with ajax autocomplete
Improvements to admin tools to manage items
Adding Facebook commenting to item detail pages

Added graph of auction loads by month to stats page.
Added price history graph for orange and blue waves. Tough to read as line plots step on each other, but somewhat interesting

Adjustment to image hover so that on touch devices it doesn't stack images
Added a footer and fixed some of the new pages
Added some cool stats
Added an about page.
Still not happy with movers/shakers. The problem is that sometimes it shows a bit change in price but it's not reflected in the graph. This is mostly because the graph doesn't have enough auctions to show the current month. Adjusted logic accordingly.
Fixed bug in order of graph so that years comes last
Left some debug code in which was scewing around with php performance. I recommend running grep "opcache_reset" . -Rn on your site. Also setup some cache monitoring pages
Adjusted cache and added method to clear cache before recreating content. This should fix movers/shakers not reflecting changes in figure categories

Adding retailer exclusive SKU's and UPCs when I find them

Added image hover on price guide pages to show a thumbnail of the figure
DST bug
Adjusted order that auctions are retrieved on eBay so they come back in similar groups
Fixed the tabs on the item detail page to properly show and hide current and sold auctions. Now it works like you would expect.
Added a little icon overlay on top of thumbnails to show there is a bigger to view. Positioning CSS is a huge pain but found some examples I could adapt that didn't screw up while in mobile format

Added logic not to include visual guide links for price guides that don't have one (Hallmark and Variations)

While trick or treating I realized that my breadcrumbs would not work when there is no referer so I updated to an ajax call
Added breadcrumbs to item detail pages
Added a little switch icon to go from visual and price guides
Added notice on bottom of price guides that more info can be found if viewed with desktop or tablet
Fixed title and description meta tags to more acurately page content
Added more detail about item on detail page because the smart phone version has it removed
Created an iphone (I assume it works with any smartphone) version of the price guide that hides columns when viewed on a smart phone.
Google didn't like that my site wasn't responsive and it was getting annoying to use on mobile. I looked into Foundation but finally settled on Bootstrap to make it responsive. It's somewhat of a hack of how the tables just scroll now, but maybe another iteration will include a table with less info on mobile. I personally hate showing less info though because that normally means trying to get to the desktop version

Added wearables as well
Renamed all visual checklists to visual guides and setup 301 redirects so old links still work and Google is happy
Changed the menu header so you can easily switch bewtween the price and visual guides. I hate working with CSS

Fixed sort order not including wave and the wrong year on 3.75" luke
Adjusted graph width to match item picture and description
Moving everything under one directory. I originally started with one file and now that it's morphed into something bigger, I decided to tidy things up by putting everything under /star-wars/. I thought about registering a new domain name, but for now, Ill keep it under my personal domain name fperkins.com
created SEO friendly page names, item links and image names so Google is happy

adding figure meta information and description on ebay detail auction pages to help with SEO
small tweak to align VCL images on top so they look more aligned due to wrapping names below
minor cleanup of image sizes and added some SEO for links/titles/images/etc

Similar figures are causing issues try to sort them. Had to build some more admin tools to quickly change
Wrote logic to exclude "and/&" type auctions for multiple figures, but some items naturally have an and so don't exclude those by accident (like Luke and Wampa, Rey and BB8)

Found an issue when adding the new 3.75 Walmart figures as I was sorting by id, but not including group
Setup auto-exclude rules for auctions that include title descriptsion like and, &, 2x, etc. Also excluding any auction that's double the avg price, figuring it's a bundle

Fixed min/max Y axis on graphs
Bunch of updates to backend tools to maintain auction results as they come in

Duh, changed ebay search to only return NEW listings. Might verify listings from China as well
