A bit over an hour ago, my Hostsailor VPS dropped offline, and when I tried to investigate, it seems like all their websites are down, even the status page. Does anybody have any information about what's going on with them?
EDIT: my VPS is now accessible but only via IPv6, and can communicate outbound via IPv6 only, no IPv4 in or out and all Hostsailor sites are still down
Steam has an API for querying market prices, but it requires knowing the item's numeric item_nameid value (for example, 1115503), which historically has to be extracted from the item's market listing page
However this information seems to be missing from the new beta version of the market listing pages.
Example item: https://steamcommunity.com/market/listings/753/220-Half-Life%202%20Booster%20Pack
if you have the market beta disabled, meaning you're getting the old-style listing page, you can easily find the item's item_nameid, 1115503, because it appears 3 times in the source.
with the market beta enabled, meaning you're getting the new-style listing page, "1115503" seems not to appear anywhere in the source
for now, we can still disable the beta and access the legacy pages, but presumably the legacy pages will be disabled at some point
so how are we going to find item_nameid values when the legacy pages are gone?
