Net Gil On AH History

Interestingly enough, I'm having a similar issue but only on my main. I can see my alt's ah history just fine.

No one one in this thread has even brought up privacy.

Gained: 26,000, Lost 176,100, Difference -150,100 (Last 100 Sales)

D:

I would just prefer the option of being visible or not. The information is worthless if you use bazaars, and it looks sloppy.

Weird. So others can view my AH history, but I can not. Thanks for the help, Kali! I'll try to figure this out ...

Yes. If you are inactive for quite some time you will not see your sales. This is because of how the site grabs latest sales for a player. The sales are partitioned in smaller database tables based on time. Usually 3-4 months, a partition is added. The reason the partitions are necessary is so the table indices do not out grow the server's RAM (or more generally to keep them from growing too large). When I wrote the code to fetch the latest sales, it would go through the partitions in descending order until it found the quantity it was looking for. I only allow it iterate over a defined number of partitions until it gives up, for speed purposes. Then the results are cached until a new sale is received for that char.

If I log out, It pops up just fine, but while logged in it's hidden, is that the same reason for this? I don't do all that much on the AH since all of my gil is going to HMP and most things I sell are non-ah items but my last transactions were on the 12th which isn't too long ago.

Has been brought up and implied at least twice actually.

Thanks much for your time and this info, Scragg!
I figured it much be something like this, although I don't understand the technical stuff on a plane anywhere near yours.
It's odd that Kalila could view my sales history and I could not, though, isn't it?

That sounds like a cache problem. Try changing your visible transactions and make sure it's something other than 25, 0, or 255.

Ok, yeah, you're right ... that's really weird. If I log-out of FFXIAH, THEN I can view some of my sales history (it's only five transactions), but when I'm logged-in to FFXIAH, I see no sales history at all. Odd!

I don't see it while logged in, it's a cache issue.

I cleared my browser's cache; no change. Perhaps you meant something else by "cache issue" though; again, I'm not unfortunately not technically-savvy enough to speak your language. :-)

It's server-side.

Awesome new feature. Thanks Scragg!

I never saw any post as a privacy issue concern

I tried to set it to numerous things. Anything over 100 just reverts back to 100, anything under it'll stick but still makes no difference to the page. Oddly, my alt's does the same thing but her history is still there.

If you'd like me to do any other testing just let me know.

Hopefully those with missing AH histories are correct now.

Sent you a PM!

Works for me now. Thanks!
