Opened ticket on Sept 25th. They said they did something to fix the issue but still having it. Unable to import orders from eBay that have sold. Have had eBay addon since April or so, and its still fairly useless at this point with no updates.

For now, there are some old messages without response, for example, some messages in which some one is not satisfied with the taken decision. We will also process them in the nearest future.
If your message was unnoticed or left without any response, please inform us about this. In our turn we will do our best in order to avoid this situation in future.
Again we apologize for any possible inconvenience.

That's why you need to be using a real defect tracking system and not a forum. In your current system, the last post of ANY closed defect should be from cs-cart, not the submitter or another user.

Ahh. I received a response saying they edited the file as a "workaround", which basically did nothing. I try to import from eBay, and it tells me I need to select a store, even though I don't have the multistore version, and there is not a place to even select a store before I try to import. I hope it gets fixed soon, as the biggest holiday shopping season of the year is starting.
parodius420,
your issue is int the tasks list and it has high priority.
I personally control it, the fix will be ready this week.

In your post above you mention that you can not keep up with incoming bugs and need time to resolve. Stability of CS-Cart is much more valuable than new features. I would love to see 4.2.10 be released in time to provide product stability.

And this spagetthi-code-problem also affects other areas. Please keep also an eye on that - I can't create tickets for such thingsBy the way... regarding complex mechanism when doing checkout/placing an order... It's a mess to understand the code which is written for placing the order/checkout. I hope your guys will review and clean it when you realize the point "Checkout improvements: Ability to hide Shipping or Payment steps" on your roadmap. I hope in general that cleaning/standardising the code is also on your agenda and not only adding "fancy" new features. Otherwise I dont see how CS Cart will survive the next 10 years. Or do you plan to create a new version from the beginning on a proper code base? Because its not SAP - they have the same issue but another role on the market

Now I see that also the processes and dealing with fixes need to be improved. Often I'm providing code fixes when reporting an issue. And some issues only affect addon developers or special scenarios. And I really hope that you dont forget bugs that are confirmed by zero people. Because never forget: when customers are you unhappy with a service most just walks away or find a way to work around (and are pissed). Not much people give you qualified feedback (or even code fixes). Until now I got good feedback on my fixes but I'm not sure if they will every get into your releases when I read this page.

Don't you use an internal bug tracker that you could set public for your customers (where you developers have access to)? It doesnt make sense to maintain two systems here, isnt it?
I also mostly agree with the following:
User voice is not totally useless but.... often only qualified people understand why things are important. So you cant use user voice on specialized requests because they will never get attention by the mass. Doesnt matter how clever or future relevant it is (or if it helps you in the end to attract new customers). Most people (=your customers) just see what directly lies in front of them and what they THINK (now know) what they need.Don't like the 'voting' aspect. This is not a popularity of defect issue. Just like user voice is pretty much useless, voting is not the point.
Definitly a no-go. Hope you will fix your process here.There are far too many reported problems where feedback has been provided or responses to closed bugs that have gone un-resolved.
I like that customer get usually feedback for their requests. But we also really need professional actions not just words. I believe that you are willed to do so (and had some good experiences when created tickets that are answered by cahek). I hope this will continue and you start changing things like other customers/addon developers with more CS Cart experience ask you for.

Look at this change log: https://www.mantisbt...ngelog_page.php
Bug entry: https://www.mantisbt...ew.php?id=19501
You are currently using IP.Tracker. This is an outdated addon to old forum software IP.Board 3. Sooner or later it will be needed to change forum software anyway.

A bug tracker doesn' t have to be pretty, but it certainly needs to be functional and interactive.
In addition to using a real bug tracking system, csc needs to develop policies to involve the submitter in the fix/testing. I think this is a cultural issue within csc and if it were opened up a bit it would add to the level of trust/confidence, not take away from it.
Every submit a bug to the Mozilla team for firefox? Nothing happens without everyone being aware of what's happening. Sometimes it's a lot of noise (like notification of someone being added to the watch list) but far better to be too communicative than not.
