DPF Development HELP! Help us test the DPF "Public" Pin Trading Board!
I guess it was actually minimal contrast in the dark theme that was straining my eyes. The grayish font on the black background was very hard to see.

This is beautiful! And I just got a message that a pin from my wishlist has been added to the trade board. How cool!!! Thanks!
I love the ease so far of searching using PinandPop and adding to the wishlist as well as the trade boards. The notation area also is a great way to give any needed specific notes on the pins being offered. And I love the way notifications keep me up to date as to board activities of what’s available as well as offers. I’ve not come across any glitches on my end of exploring so far 🥰
the "My Trades" filter should now show both your own posted trades, as well as any trades you've offered on. Previously, it only showed your own listings.
Trade offer acceptance has been enhanced:
When sending an offer...
You can select specific pins from the trade listing that you want in exchange:
On the receiving end of an offer...
You can now select which pins you want from the offer, as well as which pins you are giving up in the trade:This is how it looks on the listing page...
And is also available (with some extra detail) in your "My Offers" page:
please test this functionality in your simulated trades! Thanks for everyone's input and testing!

Thank you, yes.
So the is number is for Each Pin, not My Personal P&P User ID # that gives direct Access to All my traders? That is what I was thinking.
there's currently no way to manage an inventory in here; all Pin & Pop ID's need to be entered manually for your wishlist, or when you initiate a trade.
Added shipping/tracking functionality for accepted trades
When you accept a trade, it moves into "PENDING" status, and you are able to enter your tracking numbers:
Tracking numbers are only viewable by the involved parties:
When tracking numbers have been entered by both involved parties, the trade is no longer able to be cancelled:

I see them on there! Thanks for helping test 🙏🏽
I guess I am the only one who gets a headache trying to read this board. I can barely see the grey font and the light theme doesn't help provide enough contrast. I just can't even look at it anymore.

Initial Reaction: Intuitive. Easy to Use. No real "how to" guide needed.
Suggestions for future versions: 1,. To be able to delete a submitted trade, without having to accept the blank trade. I posted the wrong pin and realize now that I could have just added a pin and deleted the other, but in the moment, I was looking for a delete option. 2. When putting in pins that you would like in trade, to be able to select them from your wishlist. Having to once again enter the P&P pin number seemed repetitive.
Overall, a great start! I am looking forward to using it!

Thanks for the feedback — all good points;
Maybe we can have it work to either enter P&P ID (so it remains open ended where you can add whatever you want, even if it’s not on your wishlist), but for ease of listing when you want specific pins in return (I.e. not an open trade where you take offers) , also be able to select entries from your wishlist.

Sounds awesome, I will take a look at this over the next couple of days!!
Please do, and I’m welcoming any and all feedback! This public cork board/trading board idea has been swirling around for a while, but haven’t had much time to execute.
I’m hoping to build a different type of experience for us compared to what already exists, and hopefully you all like it! All the members here are probably all the “hardcore” or “purist” pin traders, so being able to draw on everyone’s experience and ideas to build it out is really valuable.
A big THANK YOU to everyone who’s already begun poking around and providing feedback!
Pins can now be added from your wishlist
When creating a new trade listing, you can now add pins from your wishlist under the "Pins I'm Looking for" section during listing creation.
- A dropdown pops up and will add them to your list (bottom section) as you select them.
- Simply click the "X" to remove it from your "wanted" section.
- This functionality is also supported when you edit your listing(s)
Wow... what an undertaking. I've spent maybe 15 minutes and have found it extremely easy to pick up.
I noticed while sitting at the Trading Board that things will flash every 15 or so seconds, seems like an auto-refresh?
