Site Forum

I posted the message below back in July and the same issues have made loading cards tough the last week. I've tried lowering the rows per page, rebooting the site, but nothing helps. I'm loading bulk-multiples, so a lot of cards. After getting to the third or fourth page of loading, it kicks you back to the first page most of the time, very time consuming and aggravating.  Anyone else seeing this, any suggestions to help???

Just curious if anyone else is having these issues when loading cards?  I just loaded about 1500 cards to a 350 card set, mostly multiple cards, but some singles and it took over 2 hours.  This seems to be the standard over the last few months, but it didn't use to take as long.  Here's a couple of issues that have added a lot of time for me.

1. When just trying to add singles by clicking on the small box, the page bounces down, so you aren't able to click the next numbers box. It hasn't always done this.  It's only a few seconds, but when you're adding a lot of cards, it consumes a lot of time. 

2.  When adding multiples, the screen returns to the top(#1), 95% of the time, and you have to scroll back down to the next number-aggravating from #s 10-350.  This use to happen several times when loading a set, now it's about every card.
This adds a lot of time, especially if you're loading a large set(1000 card Upper Deck), with a lot if multiples.

3.  When you are loading the large sets, once you get off the first page and add a card(page 2,3,4), it returns to the first page about 50% of the time, rather than the last number added.  So, you have to get back to the page you were on, scroll down to the next number-time after time after time.  Very time consuming!

Not sure why, or when it happened, but it's become very cumbersome to add any cards, unless its the whole set.  It wasn't always this bad. I added thousands of cards the first 2 years here without the above issues being as bad.  I've loaded sets having one window open and I've loaded sets with 4 windows open before with no issues. 

Maybe I'm not holding my mouth right-lol!  I'm open to any ideas to speed up the process or any secrets to adding cards by eliminating the above issues.  
Thanks!

Have you tried different web browsers to see if one works better than another when doing this particular function?  Just curious and good luck

You ought to try using the "Add Multiples" link found on the collection summary page of each set. Just make sure you change the drop-down menu to For Sale / Trade. 

Seeing the same issues as you with no clear answer to "fix" it.

Mark,

I use Chrome and I tried Firefox back in July, no difference.  It's the extra time spent going back to page 7 when it bounces back to page 1, or when loading singles, the bounce down and then up when you click the box, which keeps you from clicking on the next number, and when loading multiples it goes back to the top of the page instead of going back to the next number.  Some days are better than others, but the past two weeks were bad.

Commish,

I definitely know how to use the "Add Multiples" button. With the bulk I have loaded, that button has been a life saver.  At first, I didn't know how versatile it was. If I had 24 copies of a card, I would add 10,10, and 4.  You can only imagine my excitement when I found out that you could hit the add multiple button, multiple times!  Instead of taking 3 times to load 24 cards, I can load 8 and hit the button 3 times, one load instead of 3.  I've used it for larger quantities, not sure how many times you can actually hit it before it stops.

Just to make sure we're on the same page because it sounds like you're referring to the individual card's "Add Multiple".

I'm referring to this on the set's Collection Summary page:

Yeah, I've looked at that before, but Im loading bulk into a collection.
