We've just added another convenient way to create new ads for animals which are similar to ones you have already listed. This is useful when entering in a whole clutch, whose members share properties like species, maturity, date of birth, clutch #, genes, description, etc.
Click the new copy icon on the inventory screen (in the left column). This creates a new ad with most of the properties of the old one.
Update any field values and add photos. Make sure you provide a unique serial ID for this animal.
That's it!
(And while it might be tempting, please do not use this to create new ads of the same animal. Our rules only allow creating a single ad for an item, which should be renewed thereafter. Thanks!)
Ads are eligible for renewal every several weeks depending on your plan level. When renewed, they jump to the front of some listings and are reshared in the MorphReport. Standard and Premium level members also have an auto-renew feature that will automatically renew as soon possible. You can always see the last time that your ad last renewed by checking the date posted on the ad page.
Some sellers have requested the ability to disable auto-renewal to be able to manually control when their ads renew. As a result, we've added this new option near the bottom of your Seller Profile options which will do exactly that.
What's on the menu? Mealworms, vegetables, or quail?
We've just added two new advanced search options. Filter your results to animals eating a certain kind of food and/or having a certain weight.
Like usual, when these search filters are enabled, only ads with these fields set will be shown. This is a benefit to sellers who put more information into their ads.
We know there are some other fields not yet in search, but these are the ones we have had most frequently requested.
So have at it. Kinda fun to poke around and see what comes up for a given size and/or diet.
As promised last week, we've now added Amphibian support!
There are 10 subcategories: Tree frogs, Dart frogs, Horned frogs, Bullfrogs, Other Frogs, Toads, Salamanders, Newts, Axolotls and Other Amphibians.
Didn’t we just add Invertebrates last week? That’s right, MorphMarket isn’t just for Reptiles anymore. And in 4 days 32 Invert breeders have created 126 ads. We couldn’t believe how fast that area has populated.
Please help us get this going by spreading the word online!
As a reminder, in the future we can elevate subcategories to be their own top level categories, like Axolotls or Toads, at which point they’d enjoy traits and other benefits. We have some other subcategories in the market which we need to revisit soon for exactly this purpose.
As we've added more categories and subcategories to the site, the category selection option has become a real pain to use. This option is in the advanced search as well as for sellers when they create, import or modify ads.
To see the full list of features only available through memberships (even in our developing markets), check out the items highlighted in blue on the pricing page. Make sure to hover over or tap items for more explanation.
TLDR: If you've been using MorphMarket for a while, we hope you've noticed that our site is now responding much faster than before and experiencing zero capacity errors!
MorphMarket is committed to providing the modern platform for reptile enthusiasts. As such our staff has been working hard behind the scenes to performing a major software upgrade to Python version 3 (the programming language), which has been rolled out today.
We have tested these changes to the best of our ability, but it's inevitable that there are a few more bugs to be squashed. Thanks for your patience if you encounter such an issue. We should be notified of any errors on our end and fixing them as fast as possible. If you a problem remaining for more than a day please let us know.
In recent weeks we’ve all been impacted by COVID-19 in one way or the other. Just like you, we’re concerned about the pandemic, and we are here to support our customers and the community.
At MorphMarket, our support team is no less available than before to help you with any issues or questions you have in the use of our marketplace. In fact we have recently added additional staff to improve our capabilities.
