Someone sent me artwork to add in my templete and I can't figure out how to get the HTTP code to insert in the templete. Can someone help me?

Hi,
In general, you use an IMG tag with format something like:
<img alt="" src="http://Image URL">
The template editor also has insert Image icons that can be used to build the code with either a hosted URL or one of your images stored at Auctiva.

Hi,
Didn't see your other post when I responded to this one earlier.
I just gave you a reponse to the other post, which I hope clarifies how to use the template builder and why you're getting that error.

Danno, This is what I have in HTTP and have not idea what this error is telling me to do. Here is the following. Can you tell me what needs to be changed?

Hi,
If that is the template HTML code, it's missing any/all of the standard code-builder tags used to build Auctiva templates, e.g. no [DESCRIPTION_AND_IMAGES] tag is present.
You also have the various Seller Detail sections written, e.g. Payment, but apparently haven't created a Seller Detail profile (profile tab) to use the tags, e.g. [PAYMENT]. It's OK to do those that way, but just wanted to let you know there is an option of using the code builder with appropriate tags to add flexibility to the templates use.
Technically, you could simply paste that code directly to the one-page lister's description section and not use a template.

Do I put the description in the brackets? I delete them of when I switch to standard from HTTP it shows the brackets?

The [DESCRIPTION] tag, the word DESCRIPTION in all caps and in the brackets as example, operates by substituting the description text (and any HTML code) you create in Auctiva's one-page lister for that tag in the template. So, yes, you use the tag in the brackets and the text for the listing goes in the one-page lister's description section (for that example). This method gives the flexibility of using a single template for any number of listings with unique text....hope that makes sense.
I'd highly recommend you examine some of Auctiva's ready-made templates to see how those tags are used.
