Dear Team

I have noticed that, on Hikaauction, users are currently permitted to place bids on auctions they have created.

Could you please advise on how to implement a restriction to prevent auction owners from bidding on their own listings?

Thank you

Hi,

That's a good point. I've made some modifications to HikaAuction to handle this.
Download again the install package of HikaAuction on our website and install it on yours to get the patch.

Additionally, I would like you to notice that the leading bidder in an auction should also be restricted from bidding against his own existing highest bid.

As shown in the attachment, this can lead to issues where a bidder inadvertently increases his own price due to a mistaken click, resulting in unnecessary complaints for the site owner...

Hi again Nicolas

I am sorry but found another little thing to fix

buyers are not getting updated on bids unless they reload their page

please see video: drive.google.com/file/d/1L3fRaLP4110_KEY...Z-b/view?usp=sharing

Hi,

Indeed, that's a limitation of the current system.
Handling this is a whole other beast. It will require quite a bit of development. I'll note this down for the next version of HikaAuction.
