Allow eCatalog view-only mode outside of bidding period
Currently the eCatalog is only active to my guests a week before the event. This is fine for bidding purposes, but what about publicity?
Why can't my guest view the eCatalog (without bidding) any time before the event? Seeing the eCatalog grow will:
- Generate buzz.
- Prevent my group from soliciting businesses who have already given.
- Encourage businesses to donate early (peer pressure).
The website and the information is already there. Why would it cost more just to display it the public (without having the bidding option)?

Thank you for your feedback! We have expanded the duration of the eCatalog Access Period to 45 days before through 45 days after your event date. For Select plan users, this expands the amount of time during which visitors to your event website can view the eCatalog. For Complete plan users, this expands the amount of time during which visitors to your event website can view the eCatalog, place bids on packages that are open for bidding, and/or purchase fixed-price packages that are open for purchase.

I'm reviewing my "Complete Plan" purchase, but at check-out it says "Total: $1,999.00 for 9,999 eBidders and 46 days of eCatalog access" Can you clarify whether 90 or 46 days of catalogue access?
