Well, I just wasn't happy to basically ignore the Canadian market. I started looking through some code, and while I still can't pull every piece of data for the Canadian market cars, I can pull enough to add the very basic car info in the database. So this way the Canadians who…
The site is currently getting a large volume of traffic. This is causing some performance issues. The bottleneck appears to be the database lacks the resources to keep up. This isn't something I can resolve without some downtime, so it will have to wait until later this evening.…
Just a quick change. I have noticed some issues with the Canadian C8 window stickers. There appears to be a few different variations of them. While they all look basically the same, the code needed to 'process' them is going to be different. Some have some structured data in…
As I have mentioned before, the window sticker creation dates in some of the Stingray window stickers from last year were really inaccurate. Some of these dates were months after the actual build date, with a huge cluster of thousands of them in October. I added an extra field…
A very unplanned turn of events today. A few days ago, I shared a spreadsheet I made on CorvetteForum that simply listed all the dealers, how many Stingrays have been built for them, and how many Z06's have been built for them. Then it shows the percentage of the Z06's compared…
Tonight we have a fairly big update to the Custom Search tool. You can now use it to find vehicles that have the different Z06 aero options, or no aero at all. The way these options are set up made this a bit of a pain compared to other options, so its a pretty significant…
I've been meaning to give the Dealer Data pages some attention for a while. The user analytics show they are quite a popular part of the site, so it was time to give them some upgrades. I didn't really plan on doing it tonight, but when motivation strikes you just have to run…
In case anyone hasn't noticed, every night I have been adding more and more options to the Custom Search page. Where applicable, I am putting in some basic logic to show or hide options based on the selected model. It isn't all encompassing, but this should help quite a bit when…
Just a small update for tonight. I worked a little more on refining the new Custom Search page. I have started making it a little "smarter" so it will hide certain options that don't apply to the selected model. So now, if you select Z06 for the model, you won't have some of the…
Hey everyone, this weekend ended up really busy, so I didn't have the time to get the Custom Search feature as polished as I had planned, but I decided to go ahead and make it available in its current state. You can find it in the menu under the Vehicles section. In my own…
