New member, one sale, it's not showing up in search ("sold in last year")

I joined yesterday and sold an item. I thought I had listed a quantity of 8 but when the buyer purchased it, she purchased only one and the listing went away. I have relisted and this time I think the quantity is correct … but that’s not my question. When I search for my current listing, it doesn’t come up in the search results. When I search for my sold listing (“sold in last year”) it also doesn’t show up in search. It’s like I’m invisible on Bonanza!

Yesterday the live listing did show up in search so … I don’t know what’s different today!

I think sometimes, depending on the item, there may be a delay in it going live. Glad it finally showed up for you.

I’m really impressed that you joined and sold something the same day. Congrats!!

Did you check in batch editor and see if you could find the item and change the status to “For Sale”? I am fairly new too, I add items by csv import, and sometimes the qty counts get messed up, but I notice in batch editor, just changing the counts is not enough for the item to go live, you also have to change status to “For Sale”

Dont know if that will help, but just some things I have noticed with mine. Good luck, maybe other will jump in and answer too. :-) Happy Bonanzzling
