Customer Requirement

Direct Bid on Listing Page:

1 – Admin – User Story 1 (Auction Setting for Direct Bidding on Listing Page)

WP Admin → Auction Settings → Direct Bid on Listing Page

  1. A new setting option: “Enable Direct Bidding on Archive Page” (Yes/No).
  2. If enabled, users can place bids directly from the auction listing page.
  3. If disabled, the bid input field and button will be hidden.

2 – Admin – User Story 2 (Bid Placement from Listing Page)

If direct bidding is enabled:

  1. Each auction item on the listing page will have:
  1. A bid input field.
  2. A “Bid Now” button.
  1. When a user places a bid:
  1. The page refreshes, and the current bid updates on both the listing and product pages.
  2. The bid is recorded in the bid history on the product single page.
  3. If invalid, an error message appears (e.g., “Your bid must be higher than X”).

3 – Admin – User Story 3 (Bid Placement from Product Page – Listing Page Sync)

  1. If a user places a bid from the product single page, the current bid should update in real-time on the listing page using AJAX.
  2. The bid is recorded in the product’s bid history.

Risks

  1. Bid Placement Conflicts – Multiple users placing bids simultaneously from the listing page may cause conflicts if bid updates are not handled correctly.
  2. Page Refresh Disruptions – Since listing page bids trigger a refresh, users might experience interruptions, leading to bid loss or confusion.
  3. AJAX Update Failure – If AJAX fails, bids placed from the product page may not reflect on the listing page in real-time, causing inconsistencies.
  4. Performance Issues – Frequent bid updates on the listing page could lead to higher server load, slowing down the auction site.
  5. Validation Errors – If bid validation (e.g., minimum increment, highest bid logic) is not handled properly, users may experience incorrect bid errors.
  6. User Experience Confusion – Users may not realize they need to refresh the page for bid updates if AJAX is not used consistently.
