Weedwhacker said:I have to admit that I'm starting to feel like it's a little redundant to be making the extra list for the swaps, when our plant lists already have the capability of indicating "available for trade." It might be a lot easier to just utilize that feature and develop a list of swap participants that shows a link to their "available" seeds:


No Sandy, because this new system is being designed from the ground up for swapping. Next week you'll have the ability to actually select seed offers from other people's swap lists and "add to cart" sort of. So anyone who wants to participate in a group swap will have to setup a swap list inside this feature. But I made it easy to copy items from your Plant List to your swap list.

Weedwhacker said:I'm wondering if Danita, Jimard8, Emquinn -- and Dave, for that matter -- are participating or just have lists that are set up and visible?


I'm participating, but haven't setup my own swap list yet. Other than me, only the 20 mentioned are actually participating. Anyone else who has a swap list is doing it for a future swap.

Horntoad said:There is a button in the plant database that say "Add this plant to your list" (for your plant list). There should be one under it to add a plant to your swap list.


There will be one, but not yet. I'm not going to add it for everyone, but just for people who are participating in a swap. I don't want the button universally visible.

RickCorey, good feedback. I'll be thinking about your ideas. And yes, do suggest any ideas you have. They are all good.
