I sure hope this has happened to someone other than me lol!
I pulled up a listing that didn't sell a couple of months ago from my saved listings - to preview before listing again. Here's what I found:
The entire listing - template, pictures, and description - is in my ITEM DESCRIPTION box! There are no images in the image section except for the first one - ebay header and the gallery. The template section shows nothing - (that one hasn't been chosen). I stopped there and came here.
The title and all other sections prior to the item description section were properly filled in. It's just the entire listing (template and all) is located in the Item description box!
Weird huh? How the heck do I fix this one for crying out loud? (or in a bucket).
I have faith someone out there knows the answer!
Thanks a bunch...

Hi LoLo,

The behavior you described occurs when you import a listing from your Closed Listings page to your Saved Listings page because, during this process, our system scrapes the HTML code of the description from the closed eBay auction and places that information in the description editor. If you are not looking to make any changes, you should be able to post the item as it is, however, if you are looking to change the images and/or template, it gets a little tricky.

If you have imported a listing via this manner and you would like to make changes to the images and/or template, I recommend first copying the section of the description text that you would normally enter into the description editor to your clipboard. Then, click the "HTML" tab along the top of the editor and delete all of the HTML code in the description editor.

Once you have done so, you will then want to click the "Standard" tab on the editor and paste in the description text you had copied to your clipboard. The template and images will no longer be in the editor, which will allow you to add them as normal using the "Select Template" and "Select an Image" buttons.
