Big changes are coming to the PCF Marketplace. After a lot of discussion with members of the community, the marketplace is getting a full revamp and this time it will be 100% integrated directly into the forum. What that means is no more announcement style first posts telling you to “go here” to view the listing. Honestly, I never liked that UI myself, but that’s what we ended up with at the time.
The current auction system and layout were completely custom built for PCF by my very good friend and me. He did most of the heavy lifting, but it was a true collaboration. I’ve already seen screenshots showing it being copied elsewhere, which is basically a straight rip of “the best auction system that ever lived.”
Anyway, the feedback system will be unified under one new system, and all of your existing feedback will be imported into it. Overall, the marketplace will be cleaner, leaner, and built with a much better UI. The problematic order/alert system will be sunset as well. We’re going to stick with how forums operate natively and build new features on top of that foundation.
That’s it for now. Thanks for reading my unnecessarily long post.
