Store: Wallys Brickworks
The catalog display item page has 2 links (in particular):
- Add to My Inventory
- Add to My Wanted List

Each link goes to a page to do what the link says it will do, but...

The color select parameter is different, see url below to illustrate:


http://www.bricklink.com/wantedAddDetail.asp?a=P&itemID=92946&p_color=69

http://www.bricklink.com/inventory_add.asp?a=P&itemID=92946&itemColor=69

The "Wanted List" page will display the color selected on the item page.

The Inventory" page will not have color selected, you have to do that yourself,
but!...

If I change the "inventory_add" url from "itemColor" to "p_color" than the inventory
ADD page *WILL* have the proper color selected for you.

When I buy form a store, I spend quite a bit of time adding each individual item
to my inventory (because I don't know of a better way), and this takes a
bit longer than it should because I also have to select the color of the item
I bought even though the ITEM PAGE has that color already indicated.

It may be a little thing, but every little bit helps.

Thanks

If you look at the price guide for that item, at the bottom of the page, on the
right, is another link to add said item to your inventory. This link will populate
the color box with the correct color.

I don't think you're looking at the price guide. In Catalog, select your
part number, select the color and the price guide for that particular part and
color comes up. It will look similar to the pic I attached, although the list
will most likely be more populated.

Thanks for the clarification.

But would that mean that the bug I found on the main page is a low priority?
