Can someone help me with revisions. Once an item has gone live with ebay, can you make corrections through Auctiva, or do you have to make them through ebay?
The items have to be changed on Ebay and it involves working with the code if you need to change description area. Here is my work around to save time.
I have FrontPage installed on my PC, but any HTML editor will do fine. There are some free ones on the web but I have no experience with them. There were some postings on the Custom Template discussions here that had links. Maybe you can take a look at those.
Go to Ebay and to the item you need to change the description. When you get to the box where the description html is use your mouse right click. Choose "Select All" and copy (do not cut). Open a window on the code view of the html page and select all if any basic code appears. Replace it with the html you copied from the revise your listing page on Ebay. Now make your changes. Please note you can remove pictures but is complicated to add new ones. More on how to do that next. Now, preview your new description. If it's ok just save and follow through till the the end on Ebay making any other adjustments if necessary. That is it for making changes to description.
You can add pictures through Auctiva, which is a fantastic feature. Go to Listings, Active Listings and you will see that choice right there. I used it and it works great.
That's it. Just remember to update or correct the saved listing too in case you need it again, because it will not be saved in Auctiva.
Best of luck,
