Support for Universal Wishlist feature
« on: September 17, 2008, 09:21:21 AM »
I don't know if this is a AVH feature, or if it is something missing from the Amazon API but I would love to see this plug-in support the new "Universal Wishlist" feature Amazon has recently added.

At the moment I can't say who's problem it is.

There's an outstanding question at Amazon about the problem that using the method I'm using to retrieve the Wishlist the items added by the Universal Wishlist Button don't show up.
As soon as there is a solution I will implement it.

Well I got a response from Amazon:
Quote
Hi,

Amazon Associates web service does not support the Universal Wish List feature available on Amazon.com retail site. At this time, the ListLookup operation on a WishList would only return items that are available on Amazon.com.

I am going to forward your interest as a feature request to the team. Thanks.

As soon as there's a solution I'll implement it.

Thank you again for using my plugin and the suggestion.

Here's the status right now:
Currently I can get the Universal Items from a wishlist.
Of course there is a "problem"
Unlike an Amazon item which has several image size associated with the ASIN, A Universal Items seem to have only one picture associated with it. This picture has no info on how big it is, so showing a picture from a Universal List could mean a giant picture compared to the Amazon items.
I'm debating showing the No Image picture for Universal items
