Thread: Bulk Edit not working

  1. #1

    Default Bulk Edit not working

    Has anybody else experienced this problem today?
    Have done a bulk edit of 150 items, trying to change title words, but on reviewing the supposedly successful items nothing has changed. Tried again to carefully repeat the operation but still nothing changed.
    Any advice is welcome

    I suspect that there are hidden characters in the string you are trying to change - that's always been the reason when this has happened to me.

    To bulk edit 150 listings in the title it must be one or more words that you are trying change and those words must be in a string - the same on all listings.

    Have you checked your bulk edit where it states passed/failed/ignored? If there is a number against any of these, click on it and the reason will be stated.

    note to self - save screenshots in a file!

    Thanks all for the replies, it's two words and they are the same for all edited listings. I have done the same edit many times, previously, and in the same way with the same words.

    The edit is marked as "success count - 150"

    I am not aware of any hidden characters, just swapping "Summer Fun" for "Xmas Gift"

    If you click on View under more info - right side of your screenshot - that should give you more indication as to the problem.
