TurboLister HTML Problems

Not Displaying Correctly

  • Cause

Sometimes HTML won't display correctly if it has certain Javascript or CSS elements.

  • Resolution

One fix for this is to make sure TurboLister is up to date and make sure that you are using Turbo Lister 2. If a Description is still not displaying correctly try taking the Description and putting it into an html document and opening it in your browser.

  • Similar Problems

Problem is HTML or JavaScript related.

Template

  • Cause

Sometimes users will have additional templates in turbolister to help with things like return policy and shipping details but this can also cause problems with the price, auction format, title, and description being changed.

  • Resolution

The fix is to delete or change the TurboLister template.

Image Problems

Before anything make sure all links look like: "http://www.cyclerecyclers.net/image.php?productcode={?ProductCode}&inventoryid={?PartNum}&imageid={X}" and X is replaced by a number that is greater than 0

Preview Image not Showing up

  • Cause

This means that they don't have images in their ITrack image directory which can be found under "imagesdir" in the Host.ini

  • Resolution

Change the directory where ITrack looks for and saves images

No Images Show up

  • Cause

This usually means that images aren't sync'd so it assumes there are no pictures associated with the part trying to be listed on HTP/Recyclers/Cyclerecyclers

  • Resolution

Re-sync their images and make sure Replikwando is working
