I submitted a ticket, but for me the default tag button is broken. It does not show any of my tags when I click the button.

Which button does not show the tags? There is one in filters, one on each card detail row, one in the "With Selected" actions button on top of the table etc.

Also, question: Is there a limit on the amount of tags we can use? I wanted to add a tag showing the way that I acquired each card, and I was going to be very specific with dates and stuff but if there is a limit then I will find a more generic way to do it.

No limit, but there is no nice way yet to organize them (folders or smth), so it might be cluttered if you make hundreds of them right now.

Thanks for the reply.
So this will be back to merging behavior at some time in the future and I do not need to go through the whole collection and manually merge entries, correct?
BR

Hmm it will not retroactively automatically merge stuff in your inventory.

Why do you have many duplicated entries though? Is this from importing?

Yep, it's a regression from the release with the tags feature. It's on the todo list to check out.

Hello,

If you add cards to your tradelist directly with the Add dialog, they are added to your inventory as well.

It would be nice to be able to sort by Card/Collector Number, specifically in the table, but also in filters. If I'm understanding it properly, the cards already know what Card Number they are (as seen in Editions and CSV export). It just needs to be visible to the user.

When you sort by edition, the card number is used as the secondary criteria automatically.

Printings are also shown by default sorted by collectors number in the per-edition listing (accessible via "Editions" from the left menu).

You can use the "select all" checkbox, then in the prompt "select all in listing", and then use the Remove option from Card Actions.

Question about adding cards to the inventory with a free account (so no access to the cool tags).  Previously if I had multiple rows with the same options selected (condition, set, etc) those rows would be combined to a single row when I clicked save.  Now it seems to not be doing that anymore but keeping them as separate rows (none of the rows have any tags applied).  Was this intended?

This was a side-effect of the tag work, yep. I will take a closer look at what's needed to restore that functionality.

Also just a small bump on this.  If you can describe how to do the split, that would be awesome.

Right now you can do it from the panel that opens on Edit, there is an icon that appears on the left of a row on mouseover.

I want to add this to the dropdown as well though, similar to the decks one. Soon (TM)

I had a trade where the printing the other trader wanted was listed wrong, so I went into my inventory and changed it to be the correct one

I (partly) fixed the interaction now. If you change the printing or details in your inventory for something in a trade, now the entry in the trade will be "disconnected", so you will see the old version, and with "0" counts for inventory to show that is what you added initially, but you don't have it anymore.

You can fix it by clicking the inventory count and setting a 0 to the old row, and the new count on the new details.

Does that make sense?

What is the use case for tagging in inventory? I don't really get why people wanted this? Maybe i am missing something cool?

The main usecase is to catalogue in which boxes cards are stored in physically / which are loaned out / which are set aside for something / put in binders / etc.

Bummer. Will you be communicating dates for removal of Marketplace features? Two things I'm wondering are when my final chance to export my card prices will be and when the final bill will be posted for Deckbox fees. Will Marketplace feedback be erased?

The prices will not be removed in the foreseeable feature, even after buying and selling will be disabled, so no rush to export anything. Seller feedback will not be erased.

I will try to get official tcgplayer prices for USD and cardmarket prices for EUR. After removal of the marketplace I will contact them and try to get the prices and to have a closer integration with other marketplaces (in an ideal world one would be able to directly sync his inventory between them).

You can also add multiple tags on a single entry. If you have a Mountain with "Tag1, Tag2" it will be distinct and listed separately from one with just "Tag 1", even if it's the same exact printing & details.

Does anyone think that perhaps trades will become a psuedo-marketplace with respect to "hey, I need these cards from you, but would like to just send you $x.xx for them"?

This probably already happens, right?  I guess my question would be would it break any kind of TOS with using the site?  Or does it matter if there's not going to be any dispute resolution, etc. from Sebi and team, and they basically say "do this type of dealing at your own risk."

Yes, this is how it worked before the marketplace existed. I did not forbid such exchanges but there was a warning on "one-sided" trades underlining that this is not a supported feature and that it is a risk the trader assumes, as we cannot moderate disputes, since we cannot "see" that money has indeed been transfered, or if disputes were filed directly with paypal, etc.

What I mean by that is if I have 3 copies of Lannowar Elves (M12, NM) and 1 Llanowar Elves (M12, LP) I can tag the LP copy or all 3 NM copies, but would not be able to tag just one of the NM copies.

You can! If you split the 3NM row, add one tag on the split one, another tag on the 2 remaining, it will work, they will stay "separate".

2. Seeing Tags in other places - Do you plan to make tags visible in built decks, so I can see where they came from and where they go back to? Can we see it in trades? This would be especially helpful for those of us with multiple trade boxes. And in the Card Printing page, in the "In your decks" section it would be great if we could see and edit the tags.  This would sort the request I previously asked for of being able to move cards from one location to another from that screen.

You should already see them in trades, an on the card page on the inventory listing section (It's a "tag" icon, and when you mouseover or click it, it will show the tags that are on it.

The tags->built deck interactions still need some work, as mentioned. I'll have some updates in the coming days.

I am planning to sunset and eventually close the marketplace features on deckbox.org.

The plans for the marketplace were a bit too ambitious for a tiny company & website like deckbox. A market thrives with a large number of both sellers and buyers, and with sufficient staff to swiftly address issues, develop and change features and not least deal with disputes, lost mail, payment issues and fraud.

Currently due to the low number of buyers and sellers, there are frustrations for both sides - sellers do not move enough stock, and buyers only find part of their wishlists to be available. Significantly growing these numbers would require far more development, marketing, SEO and support effort that I am able to provide at this moment.

I do not regret trying out the marketplace features, but it is time to recognize that the development & support efforts are better focused on the main thing deckbox does well - inventory management, deckbuilding and trading.

Removing the market will allow faster iteration on main website features - like the tags support for inventories, that is being released right now.

If you have any feedback or questions I will be happy to respond.

Inventory Tags

After being requested & on the TODO list for years, and multiple abandoned attempts at implementing them, today tagging support was finally released, in a large feature pack for premium accounts.

Tags can be assigned to any card in an inventory, individually or in bulk. The bulk actions are available after selecting some cards via the Card Actions dropdown. The select all checkbox in the inventory can also be used to select all the cards matching a filter, and then bulk-tag (or untag) all cards in that filter.

There is a Default Tags selector for Add Cards now, so that when adding cards some tags can be directly set.

Tags are also now added to the csv export, and set when a deckbox csv is imported to the inventory.

Built decks issues

I know that some of you have been using built tags as a "tagging" mechanism. To migrate from built decks to tags, there will be a filter in inventories called In Built Decks. One could then filter by deck, then tag all cards in the result with a tag, and get rid of the deck.

I will work on this issue this week, so that the migration to tags is correct and fully functioning. I will make a new post on details and exact printings in built decks in a couple of days.

Saving default filters

If you find that you always use a certain set of filters and want them to always be visible (instead of the current default ones), there is now a button that allows this to be saved. The setting is per set type, so you can have some filters you see in inventory, some in tradelist, and a different set in the card database.

Filter bookmarks

As people will certainly use tagging for "inventory subsets" to manage large collections, I wanted to add a pinning feature to tags, so that you can see them in the left menu under Inventory for quick access. I added this feature in a more general way though, so that any filters that you want can be "bookmarked". This link will be then shown for quick access in the left menu.

This works for any set (wishlist, card database), and not just for inventories.

Tag "pinning" can thus be made by filtering for a tag, and saving that as a filter bookmark.

I'm sure there will be users with many tags and that a folder feature will be needed to sort them out, which can be toggled open or closed as they are for decks. This is not yet implemented but high priority.

Other changes

Added "edition code" and "decks count" columns to the csv export.

This has been a large feature set with a lot of interactions with other systems and pages of the website. Please let me know if you notice new bugs or inconsistencies, or if things are unintuitive.

Thank you in advance for any feedback.

The column name is "Card Number". You can export your inventory and check out the resulting csv to see all the possibilities.

Overall, I love the update! I have some feedback on the changes made to tooltips. It looks like you wanted the new condition messaging to pop up instantly when a user's cursor hovers over the price. This update seems to have been global for all tooltips and now I'm experiencing lots of mis-clicks while using different views.

Thanks for reporting. The changes were somewhat accidental and indeed the new behavior is quite annoying.

I changed it now so that all the tooltips have a 250ms delay, and also if you click a tooltip it closes. (But does not also close the card details edit panel anymore).
