Release Notes for October 18, 2011 Release

Merchant Facing Fixes

  • Maturity bug fixes for Marketplace RSS feeds

Details: The following RSS feeds are available:

The easiest way to create a feed URL is to search on the Marketplace for what you would like to create a feed for. Copy the resulting URL and then replace "products" with "feeds". (This works with Items search only.)
Possible search parameters are:

  • search[category_id] (this id can be obtained by clicking on a category and pulling out the value in the URL on the Marketplace web site)
  • search[maturity_level] (options are: G, GM, GMA, A)
  • search[keywords] (keyword to search for)

If the user who is pulling the RSS feed is not logged into the Marketplace, only G (General) products are available. Here is a sample URL: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/feeds/search?search[category_id]=222&search[maturity_level]=GM&search[keywords]=silk
