Starting this in the General section to allow threaded responses and kudos and all that.

Would you prefer if products opened in a new browser tab? We do this on search results pages - it helps a user keep their place on the page.

Yes, I would like products to open in a new browser tab.

Also, could we have the ability to collapse/hide the bookmark on the left?

It looks good. I did find one glitch though. The group products option in the actions dropdown is being cut off and only showing half of it.  I love having 7 products on each row.  Would also like to have everything open in a new tab since I usually right click for that option whenever possible, it would be great if it was automatic.

Agree, new browser tab. Also, is it possible to make it so we can see the full title? (I already wrote a separate post in the feedback forum because I didn’t see this thread so you can delete that if it’s duplicate info… or maybe I can delete it myself? But I digress.)

In the old version we could hover over the title to see the full text, but it doesn’t work here. Would be even better if we could see the auto-appended text too. I would love it if the whole title was right there - and I wouldn’t mind if it wrapped to 2-3 lines to show it all. I try hard not to duplicate titles so anything that makes it easier to see what I’ve already used is helpful.

sharing a tip… when you hover over the image, check in the lower left corner for the url and the whole title is there.

I think that opening items in a new tab would be helpful.  Thanks for all you do.

@buxmontweb  This would be the place to voice that concern about the switch you mentioned.

+I am still seeing three products across…is there a way to see the seven mentioned above? (MIght be related to me working on tablet, I guess).

Small issue. The drop down at the top lets you choose how many products to show per page. The choices are all multiples of three - but now I’ve got 5 products across, so it always shows blank spots at the end. Not a big deal, just a little off.

Back end changes look good!  I have moved to my desktop and I have eleven products across. Shelli is right about the drop down menu in the Actions box. It’s not long enough to accommodate all the options. And it’s impossible for me to scroll  down to the lower options in the actions box,  due to the fact that the drop down box is hard up against the right hand side of the page so that I will instead hit the page scrollbar. Those lower options in the drop down box are not available to me, or visible to me.

I would have posted it here if Scott’s post had been there before mine.

Where is the dropdown that lets you select how many products per row in the back end? I now have giant thumbnails and only two products per row. Downthread a dropdown is mentioned but I can’t find it. I am on a Microsoft Surface Pro which is a cross between a tablet and a laptop.

Tip: You can show as many products as you want by manipulating the url. Choose 48 from the drop down, then change ps=48 in the url to whatever number you desire :slightly_smiling_face:

It’s so much better now.

Yes, the Actions box needs to accommodate everything in the list.

It would help navigation if the department, etc. menu on the left scrolled independently of the thumbs so it’s available no matter where a person is on the page.

I am only seeing 2 products per row, giant thumbnails, no apparent way to change it. Very distressing.

They made the page responsive so how many you see across depends on your screensize / resolution.
