Version 1.0.1.7: Watch List enhancements

Thanks DM for pointing out that the Previous Listings link on the search and detail pages was not working. I have fixed that in this version as well.

The main change though is in the Watch List. I moved things around just a little to make its format appear better. And I have begun to put in my hot links to the listing detail information. For now just the borrower's description (not the listing description). I do want to add them all, but I wanted to get the previous listing link fix out there first.

I also moved the sort drop down and added your winning bid and outbid information.

If you are coming here the first time, download from the right using version 1.0.1.5 then come back and get 1.0.1.7. You can use the Modified installer it will work everywhere.

Version 1.0.1.6: Watch List now has sorting

I added a simple method to sort the watch list. Currently there are 3 options, time left, loan amount and percent funded. Time left sorts so that the listings about to expire appear at the top. Loan amount sorts highest loan requests first. And percent funded shows those closest to 100% first.


And if you have not tried it yet, be sure to check out the addition to the Your Account tab within Prosper. Easily check for new updates to this extension.

If this is your first time installing, use the link for the 1.0.1.5 on the right. Then after installing come back and install the 1.0.1.6 update.

Version 1.0.1.5: Quick links to message borrower and Q&A entries

Good news ... No need to uninstall prior to updating with the latest version. This reduces the download time. However, you still need to shutdown Internet Explorer first. The installer will now verify IE is not running prior to installing.

So the navigation area on the right has changed. If you are not sure, choose the Modified Full install. If you already have the extension installed (regardless of Modified or Original), click the Update install. I will make this even easier soon.

Now - in this version only a few minor additions and one bug fix. In some instances the hide/show button would stop working on the detail page. This has been fixed. Also there was a problem showing your winning bid info in the search result pages. This has been fixed. I added a couple more quick links on the detail page. Things that I do frequently but hate having to go through multiple clicks to get there.


I added a quick link to send a message to the borrower. Normally you have to click to the borrower's profile, then click on contact member. Now it is just one click away.

Second, I added a quick view for the questions & answers. A popup will display with all of the Q&A displayed. As it is, even if you scrolldown you will only see the first of 6 or so, depending on the size. Again, one click will display all the Q&Q entries.

Version 1.0.1.3: Added a notes feature

I've added a notes feature. On the search result pages you will see an additional button, called intuitively enough Notes. If it has a *, that indicates this listing has a note. By the way, I also changed the look of the buttons to match Prosper's style. I am rethinking the UI for the hide, watch, and notes buttons on the search result pages.

And on the detail page, a Notes link appears on the quick links. A magnifying glass here indicates that the listing has notes.




So, what happens when you press the Notes button or link. This pops up. It will remain on top of all windows until you press close. The notes will also auto refresh when you view a new listing detail.

The Save and Delete buttons behave like you would

expect. Upon pressing Delete, you are asked to confirm based on the listing id.

The Archive button brings up this view on the left. Those are listing id's. Click on an id and you will navigate to the detail page. I added this so it would be easy to remove notes that were no longer needed.





I do hope you enjoy the addition of notes.

Prosper Search Result Page

To make it a little easier to view, I split the image into two.

On the search result page, I've added a link to the borrower's name which will popup the description of the listing. And to the right of the name is a magnifying glass which pops up the borrower's profile description.

A link is also added to the Credit Grade, which when clicked will popup the extended credit information. You of course must be logged into to view.


Below the debt to income ratio I've added the Average Rate information, which is based on Prosper's rates page.



I added the Hide button so that you can review a listing and never have to see it again. If you make a mistake use the Filter Off button to show all listings again. For those currently hidden, the Hide button will, of course, become a Show button.

The Watch button adds the listing to your Watch List. If currently on the Watch List, the button will say Remove. See the detail page on the Watch List for more information.

Under the number of bids, I added a link to Previous Listings. This link displays all of the user's prior listings in a pop up.

Also, if you hover the mouse over the time left, it will display the estimated ending date for the listing.

Potential changes, which I would appreciate feedback on, are to make the link on the borrower's name popup the borrower's profile information, and add a magnifying glass to the current listing link to display the listing description. I think that would be more intuitive.

Version 1.0.1.2: Added amount remaining to fund to listing detail page

Saw another post here and here on the Prosper Forums... I agreed so I implemented it. On the listing detail page, the amount funded and amount remaining to be funded are now once gain displayed. The calculation may be off due to rounding.



I also modified the format a little for the start and end dates.

Then something that I have wanted. I added a quick view of the borrower's profile description. On the listing detail and search result pages, I added a magnifying glass that when clicked will display the profile description in a popup.



Here is the same magnifying glass on the search result page.

Version: 1.0.1.1 - Display ending date on listing detail page

Use the link on the right to download the installer. There currently still are two installers. If you are unsure use the one labeled Modified. If you have never had problems installing, you can use the one labeled Original. The difference is the Modified installer includes a file missing from some PCs, so it is larger.

Details
Saw some requests to display the ending date of the listing in the listing detail page. I had been showing the date of the last bid date. After some thought I have modified the extension to display the start date and the estimated end date. Here is a snapshot of the modification.



The ending date is estimated based on the time left, in this example 38 minutes. Estimated because the borrower can sometimes end the listing early. I may drop the Estimated in a future version. The time is based on your current time zone. Mine is EST.

Also on the search result pages, if you hover the mouse over the time left, the extension will display the estimated ending date. Leave a comment if you think I should just add it as a field.

Now believe it or not, Windows does not have a nice handy function that gives you the 3 letter time zone code. And right now I'm doing the lazy method of calculation. So if you find your time zone code is incorrect, please leave a comment.
