I will have hundreds of items on my site (if I ever get them all listed). They are all one of a kind. I have only 4-5 categories and do not want to use sub-categories. Can I get the products page to go to a page 2 and 3 after 25-30-50 products, so the page isn't so long? Marilyn near Las Vegas

We do not have any pagination at this time in the software. Actually I think you are the first person to request it. ;)

I will pass this along to our developers.

Pagination would be great! It's a bit of a moot point, since listing over about 250 items in a category makes for huge pages, but is there a limit to the number of items that can be in one category and have the program still function? I imported an inventory .csv file which had only about 2000 items, although about 750 items were in one category. Mostly, the program just froze up when I tried looking into the categories, and when I could move around in the program, I could not access about the last third of the items in the long category (they remained hidden behind the category below). I gave up on that file, and am now trying to work out a category structure which keeps to -250 items per category. Pagination, and the ablility to handle at least 500 (preferably more) items per category, would be very welcome!

I think what I will do for now is to add more categories. Such as Pendants 1, Pendants 2, Pendants 3, etc. I don't really like this, but I agree with Orville - we shouldn't have even 250 items on one page! Marilyn near Las Vegas

Why not use sub-categories., main category pendants, with a nice picture heading, and a description covering your whole rangs of pendants ::dicronic glass pendants with sterling silver fittings

Your sub-categories for for instance

:: dicronic glass pendant with flower designs
:: dicronic glass pendant with animal designs
::dicronic glass pendant with gem set

Google will love those sub categories and make you specific designs found more easily

Richard, What kind of decals do you have? Could any of them be fired onto glass at 1200-1400 degrees? Marilyn near Las Vegas

The only decals that can be fired onto glass at fusing temperatures Marilyn, are sepia tone from a Hewlett Packard printer that uses special ink cartridges. Full colour is not possible at fusing temperatures. Chemically coloured metallic foils are available, but extremely expensive and unreliable with their results.
Multi tasking is a way of life for me, contrary to whatever my girlfriend may say. :-)
