I really miss the page we used to have on the old format which gave the salary and the session cost for the previous 14 days.
Is there any way of putting it onto the new format?

agreed. I found this page a key to budget strategy, not having it really hurts the game.

We have a quick SOP link even though the SOPs show on the main page against each dog but no Salary/Sessions page when the information is not available at all if you either don't take a salary or don't sell sessions. It doesn't make sense and makes it very difficult to budget.

Alas, this has been my primary complaint with the new design from day one. We, the users who have been on for several years, spent a number of those years asking that this and that be added, and this and that be moved to whereever, basically getting the pages arranged in a form that worked for us. Now things are still missing entirely, are awkward to get at (bulk feeder) and displaced for no apparent reason - just my opinion.

But, I'm hopeful we will soon get some of these issues addressed.

On the plus side, we have seen some improvements - kennel links, and added info in the list of all dogs.

It does the last five days for sessions at the bottom of the session page and you could always check your balance to see what the salary has been.

we used to get 2 weeks, which was a lot more data to work with, and thus more helpful. And when you're on 12 sessions, no salary, you CAN'T check salary from your balance, because you're not getting any.

I usually keep one kennel on salary as a reference. It was $55 today. It was $103 on the 16th.

Honestly, how do you use this to budget anyway? I always keep mine at 12 sessions so if I have extra I just sell them. You normally get more anyway.

You normally get more, but not always. Sometimes, when salary is up, you make more by going on salary and buying the sessions you need instead. If you watch the salary trends, you can generally have a good idea of when to use salary, and when to sell sessions.

Exactly, Lilliput!

Over the past 14 days salary has averaged $76.63. Today was $54 so I suspect it will drop down to the minimum $45 in a day or two. It goes through cycles - don't know exactly why but it does. Anyway, looks like time to flip everyone (but one) to sessions again (lol).

I've been doing this for years actually. The problem is, if everyone jumps to salary, it seems there are no sessions available when you need them (lol). So, I now keep this my own little secret (lol).

If everyone jumps on salary and there is a session shortage, session prices go up- which is good news too! happy :)
