I'd like to see a method added to restore seed words from a prior installation of the Phore Marketplace using the GUI, rather than the current command line method. The current method is:
Have your seed words written down in order, delete your PhoreMarketPlace data directory, download the latest version of PhoreMarketplace, run through the initial setup, close the Marketplace, and do the following (based on Windows):
To restore your wallet seed on Windows:
In the Windows search box, enter cmd.exe and click it to open the Command Prompt
To find the executable name, type: dir /s openbazaard.exe
This will list a directory, and below that will show the openbazaard.exe file. Highlight and copy the DIRECTORY above the file, and type: cd directoryname, pasting in what you copied in place of directoryname.
Type the following command to restore your wallet seed, putting your seed words between the double quotes:
openbazaard.exe restore -m "seed words go here"
If you're on Mac, it would have this directory and restore commands instead:
cd /Applications/PhoreMarketplace.app/Contents/Resources
openbazaar-go restore -m "seed words go here"
It would be similar to Mac but slightly different if you were on Linux.
If you have any store listings, those are currently lost in the process. If you want to save them, before doing all the above you would need to copy and paste all the information to a text file so you can paste them back later, and if necessary, download any images you want to transfer.
It might be worth considering having a way to back up (export) and re-import listings, also using the GUI, but that would probably be a separate feature. I don't know if it would make sense to try to combine them, unless there was a simple "backup" command that would create a packaged version of everything needed to restore your prior Marketplace state.
