+LadyBee4T Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 will we be able to "practice" with the new webstore prior to the sale? That is a good question... I asked the same question but regarding me being able to practice on how to load and set everything up, lol. I don't think anyone here is going to need "practice" but if you visit the website a bit before the sale, you should be able to look around and figure things out. It will be much easier and much like alot of other sites (I think ). Guess we'll all find out tail end of next week Are the accounts going to be transferred to the new site or do we have to make new accounts prior to the sale? Quote Link to comment

Quit putting words in my mouth Bev It's all fun and games until the coins run out You'll be able to sign up before the sale, I'm hoping at least Friday will allow for all this. Worst case scenario I'll postpone the sale a day or so if it looks like people need time to figure things out. I'll worry about that when it looks like I need to worry. They are building everything from scratch so not much I can give you right now other than they know I'm selling on Saturday and I want them done by Friday but the most important thing is that this all functions properly so..... we'll play it by ear. I'll let ya know and post an update here to let people know the store is up and to go register Quote Link to comment

+tsunrisebey Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 AG, Check out the post above ya, but yes, reregister because this is a site being built on a new server and has nothing to do with the site hosting my websites now, so it's a whole new ball game here. I'm keeping my domain names. Quote Link to comment
+Crowesfeat30 Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Neptunes Compass Sale Information This link takes me to a site that has all pertinent info about this coin sale but the "Store Link" on the page just takes me to your old, original site. It that correct? Is that where the sale will be? Or will that link be corrected sometime later this week? CF30 Quote Link to comment

It that correct? Is that where the sale will be? Or will that link be corrected sometime later this week? CF30 One more question than I gotta get some sleep lol. I currently have 2 sites; the tsunrisebey.com and the tsunrisebeydesigns.com (store link). When the new website is ready, both of these old websites will disappear and my new web site will show up. What happens is the new server will point those domain names to the new server. It doesn't matter what link you click on (those 2 posted above) because they will automatically redirect you to the tsunrisebey.com where you will find everything on 1 website. You will continue to see the old website look until we switch over to the new server. So to make this real simple: don't worry about what website of mine you currently click, it will be the right one We're still building the new store, gallery and blog so we're not ready to "show" the new look yet "officially'. Hope this makes sense. I'm sorry, I didn't realize this may be confusing to some people but I figured I needed to give at least 1 week notice for the upcoming sale so people could kind of plan ahead if need be. There isn't anything for you to do except wait for the new look to appear, register as a member if you want to, browse the site and order if you want to. I'll make sure I'm up late Friday for anyone who thinks they might need help or has questions. tsun Quote Link to comment
+Crowesfeat30 Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 (edited) Thanks, Tsun, for the quick explanation!! It's all good now.

+tsunrisebey Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 I thought I'd give everyone one more update this evening. I've spent my entire day on this computer and then on the phone with the Project Manager discussing the new site. It's been a real learning experience for me doing this whole thing. I just received the beta test site where I can go in and play with everything. I've found a couple things that will need to be tweaked but it's simple stuff like colors or words that need highlighting (simple stuff). I've been practicing as a "customer" for the past few minutes and I will say this, I think you all are going to be very happy with the ease of use. This is a state of the art cart system and it's very easy to understand and use. It's easy to register and I've even allowed for an option to use money orders for US customers who don't want to use paypal. I'm not going to give away all the fancy little things that will show on the store but even I was like; "oh that is so cool!" The way I understand it, the cart/stock numbers are in real time, so that is going to be very nice I'm very excited about this site as I've invested alot of time and money into making this a better experience for all of us. I can't wait for everyone to see it and the service I have received from the Montana company building this has been more than I could have hoped for after a number of early disappointments. Sooooooo, I will be testing and learning this weekend. I'll submit anything to the programmers that needs addressed and then the site will go live (I anticipate this to be about Monday/Tuesday). Once the site is live you will all be able to browse and get registered. I'll be home in the evening should anyone have a question but I don't think this is going to be an issue. I am hoping to have the sale same time/week day but this upcoming weekend instead. I'll post in each thread as always, update the google pages and send out 1 last email with all necessary information. Again thanks for being patient and supportive, I really appreciate it and this is one of the biggest reasons I took this big step was to take care of all of you in a more professional and ease of use manner I'm so happyyyyyyy, we're almost here Ok, time to go play in my new sandbox ... tsun Quote Link to comment

+luckycharmer Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 tsunrisebey, I would be glad to help you out with testing your new store. I could shop around for you and place things in a cart and add more things and then go through checkout and make sure that it works OK. and then you could even practice shipping. Then I could practice drooling over the new coins. CAN'T BLAME A GIRL FOR TRYING. Quote Link to comment
