What is Multi-Channel Selling? |
The Multi-Channel Selling (or MCS for shorter) technology allows sellers add listings of products on multiple ecommerce sites directly from Nash OS.
Simply adding items to Nash OS posts same items automatically on following sites:
Woocommerce, Shopify, Bonanza, Etsy, Ebay, Amazon, Rakuten, Bigcommerce, Newegg, Sears, Alibaba, Walmart, Magento.
The above sites (also known as channels in Nash OS) need to be enabled by sellers (on channel by channel basis) via authentication process in their members area of Nash OS, however all channels are mainly controlled by the admin of the site where Nash OS has been installed.
Once channels have been enabled and listings have been added by sellers, the MCS listings can be fully managed, such as revised, removed, marked as sold/unsold and etc.
Some channels (such as Ebay and Amazon) can also be set in Nash OS by sellers to use channels fulfilment (shipping and handling) centers. Here is, for example, more detailed information on what is fulfilment by ebay, and fulfilment by amazon. |

Team System can be enabled via admin panel and once enabled, sellers are able to assemble a team of members to help with listing sellers items.

Seller is able to see which team member has accessed main sellers account and when, as well as overall performance of a team member such as how many items and which items he or she listed for the seller. This feature allows sellers to employ other members of the NashOS-based website in order to speed up the posting of the sellers large inventory.
Admin of the website controls whether this feature is enabled or disabled as well as allows to manage the members of any team for any seller on the website.
Members (which can be both selling and buying or either just selling not buying or buying not selling) of the website can add any number of teams with any number of team members as well as can join any number of teams.

Co-Seller System |
Co-Seller System can be enabled via admin panel and once enabled, a seller will be able to pick co-seller(s) for his own items.
What does a co-seller mean anyway and in what situation it can benefit a regular seller?
A co-seller is another user that can be trusted and allowed to assist in selling items for the master seller. A co-seller can bid on his master-sellers items as a buyer and also can halt/release auction time while bidding on item. This is especially important for the Real Estate auctions that happen to be offline and online at the same time. For example: a seller places a house on offline and online auction at the same time. A co-seller sits in front of computer with his master-seller on the phone with him. The master seller tells his co-seller that the house received a bid from offline buyer. The co-seller clicks to open the same house auction on your site and places the bid amount he heard from the master seller on the phone. This way, the master seller can be selling his house in 2 different places at the same time but not avoiding paying you admin fees for the posted/sold items. You ask who will actually pay for the admin fees? The master-seller will pay you the admin fees. The co-seller is only a selling assistant for the master-seller and nothing more. The master-seller decides who will be his co-seller(s) via Members Area Co-Sellers view.
NOTA BENE: If your site is not intended to utilize offline auctions, you wont need to enable this feature. |

Barcode System |
Barcode System can be enabled via admin panel and once enabled, sellers are able to use ISBN, UPC, MPN, ASIN barcodes during SYI process. The usage is done by typing barcode(s) into assigned fields and tapping on barcode buttons, once barcodes are found in online databases then the description (pictures too in some instances) are automatically auto-inserted into item description field. Also the Barcode System is a category-based feature to specifically isolate online databases that contain description and pictures for each barcodes type.
NOTA BENE: In order to use the ISBN barcodes, you must have the Books category on your site. The UPC/MPN barcodes should never be applied to books category nor anything related to books as the books arent applicable to UPC/MPN barcodes and use the ISBN codes instead, thus assign ISBN to books-related categories, and assign UPC/MPN to anything other than books. Enabling UPC/MPN unlocks ASIN option, which can be useful with assigning items to Amazon.com via Multi-Channel Selling.

It is imperative that buyers do upload their banners before bidding/buying, and attach them to their bids/buys at the time of bidding or buying, to allow the seller approve/reject the chosen by buyer banner when he sees them fit or unfit into the nature of his website (just imagine this problem when a seller cannot accept/reject a porn banner that won or bought his advertising spot/space on his baby-milk-formula website). |

NOTA BENE: Automatic search engine sitemap builder is the same as the manual search engine sitemap builder, except that it enables Nash OS to do the work for you automatically, by building the sitemap.xml file first and then auto-notifying a number of search engines (google.com, yahoo.com, ask.com, live.com) that accept auto-notifications in general. This feature needs you to setup a cron job for this file (cron/cron_smb.php) in your servers cpanel. |

Category and Auction Password Protection is a feature of Nash OS and available via admin panel, once enabled you as admin of your site can stop access to any category to anyone who does not know a password to view and browse that category, or to view and browse that category including items within that category.
Why would you as admin of your site need to have such feature? The answer is purdy much as simple as it gets, since your site can be visited by people from various countries, then apparently some countries do have their own laws and legal regulations towards certain items as result of that you can simply block access to categories and its items that fall out of such laws and legal regulations.
You can have as many categories set to use any password, in other words there could be separate passwords for different categories.
Custom text feature within Category and Auction Password Protection allows you to write different reasons to why password protection is in place. Visitors can see your custom text before they login to that category or categories. The text is in the HTML format therefore you can design your custom text as well. |

Slideshow System |
Slideshow System is a set of features of Nash OS and once enabled from admin panel, it will take over the Homepage Announcements area (Prime Space).
Choosing a skin that does not accommodate the slideshow by its design will not display the slideshow.
At least 2 slides make up the show that is why it is called a slideshow, so keep at least 2 slides unhidden for each skin while you have the slideshow enabled.
Designing a slide too wide will effectively stretch your site skin too wide. To fix that either make the slides width fit the width of your site skins (you can use photoshop or any image editor that lets you resize your slides without distorting them) or use css rule such as overflow:hidden to hide any extra pixels of the slides width, so the site skins wont become corrupted by the slides width.
If you would like to design your own HTML instead of images for slides, then you can switch each slide into HTML mode by clicking on Yes option in the HTML column below, otherwise leave it at No. Since this feature is optional, you can only use it on an already added and available slide, in other words please upload a slide first and only then switch over to HTML mode if thats your original intention.
Remember to learn about HTML and how to write it before using this feature and be very careful with CSS, as you maybe charged by Nash to fixing any html/css code produced by you. Remember that any lines of code you left unclosed and incomplete, can break your site or even worse can make it gone. You just have to double-check your code before clicking on Commit & Submit buttons.
Recently, Slideshow System has received few extra cool features, such as ability for admin to change location for each slide - in other words, not only homepage can receive a slideshow but also community360, stores, and categories pages. And of course you can run a different slideshow with a different skin which is real useful when the skin changer is enabled on your site. |
