 * I am having trouble with the increment not being used for the auction bids. I
   set it at $0.25 and people have bid under that amount??? How do I force it to
   be only in $0.25 increments??

 * Hello etrnluv,
 * We have provided a bid increment field in the Ultimate WordPress Auction Plugin.
   Let’s take an example for the below auction. 
 * [https://sshhuntproperties.sandspringshome.com/annual-lease-auction-page/?ult_auc_id=265](https://sshhuntproperties.sandspringshome.com/annual-lease-auction-page/?ult_auc_id=265)
 * The first bid is $12.10.  Now, another bidder can place a bid like below.
   Current
   Bid ($12.10) + Bid Increment ($0.25) = $12.35So, the bid amount for the next 
   bidder is $12.35. Bidders can place a bid amount of $12.35 or more. If the bidder
   places a bid lower than $12.35, the plugin will not accept it. 
 * The second bid is $13.00. It is already greater than the  $12.35 value. So, it
   is acceptable by plugin. In this way, you can calculate each bid value. The difference
   between the current bid value and the next bid value is 0.25 or more. 
 * One thing we have noticed is that the bid amount text that is mentioned under
   the bid value field is wrong. The current bid value is $14.30 for the below auction.
   So, the next bidder can place a bid of $14.55 or more. But the “Enter 14.00 or
   more” text is displayed under the bid value field. It should display “Enter 14.55
   or more”. It is a plugin issue and we will fix it in the net release of the Ultimate
   WordPress Auction plugin.
