Hello javacentric -
Unfortunately, at this time, there is no tool that will allow you to change out the template on an active listing in bulk. We are looking into developing such a tool and I will certainly update this thread when there is more information available regarding it.
In order to change the template on a Saved Listing (which you can do in bulk using the Advanced Edit option on the Saved Listings page) you just need to either use Advanced Edit (if you want to use the same new template on a batch of listings) or click the link "Choose Different Template" for an individual listing which would not require you to add the images to the listing again; the images already associated with the Saved Listing remain in that listing when you change the template. When using the new templates, be sure to select an appropriate number of images in the template selector window - you can set that to 24 if you want to ensure that you can always add the maximum number of images, there is no adverse affect if you select a higher number in the selector than you have in the listings.
At that point you can either end the GTC listings and then post them again from Saved with the new templates, or you can use the steps below to update the already active listings that are eligible for revision on eBay.
- Click the Get HTML button to the right of the item on your Saved Listings page with the icon: </>
- use the Select All button and then copy the HTML in the popup window that shows
- Locate the item on eBay and open the "Revise Your Item" form.
- Scroll down to the "Description" section and then make sure that it is on the HTML tab.
- Delete the existing description HTML, paste the copied HTML in its place, preview your changes and continue and confirm your changes.
If you run into any difficulty with this, please feel free to file a support case at any time from under the Help tab of the site letting us know where you've run into an issue and we'll be happy to assist you.
