Creating a listing template

Is it possible to create a listing template, so I’m not having to copy and past all my stuff for each listing?

You may be able to do what you want by using the Duplicate tool. Go to edit/add items. Find item you want to copy and hover mouse than click duplicate. It will duplicate that listing and you can go from there and see.

The thing to watch for is that when you duplicate a listing (which I used to do a lot!)is that it doesn’t change the attributes for the items in bulk editor. If you check there you will see that the attributes from the previous item will be applied to the new one- for example, if you copy and paste for a like item but the color, size etc are different for the new one you will have to make those changes manually in the bulk editor. Not bad once you know what to look for and the process to make the changes. Hardest part can be getting the info from the first item out (using “remove”) Sometimes it just works and sometimes not and have to start over adding the whole list of attributes for the new item.
