supportI am having trouble with the increment not being used for the auction bids. I set it at $0.25 and people have bid under that amount??? How do I force it to be only in $0.25 increments?? This topic was modified 2 years ago by etrnluv . The page I need help with: [ log in to see the link]
Hello etrnluv, We have provided a bid increment field in the Ultimate WordPress Auction Plugin. Let’s take an example for the below auction. https://sshhuntproperties.sandspringshome.com/annual-lease-auction-page/?ult_auc_id=265 The first bid is $12.10. Now, another bidder can place a bid like below. Current Bid ($12.10) + Bid Increment ($0.25) = $12.35 So, the bid amount for the next bidder is $12.35. Bidders can place a bid amount of $12.35 or more. If the bidder places a bid lower than $12.35, the plugin will not accept it. The second bid is $13.00. It is already greater than the $12.35 value. So, it is acceptable by plugin. In this way, you can calculate each bid value. The difference between the current bid value and the next bid value is 0.25 or more. One thing we have noticed is that the bid amount text that is mentioned under the bid value field is wrong. The current bid value is $14.30 for the below auction. So, the next bidder can place a bid of $14.55 or more. But the “Enter 14.00 or more” text is displayed under the bid value field. It should display “Enter 14.55 or more”. It is a plugin issue and we will fix it in the net release of the Ultimate WordPress Auction plugin. https://sshhuntproperties.sandspringshome.com/annual-lease-auction-page/?ult_auc_id=265 Attachment – https://ibb.co/sqm44Z3 Thank You
