    Default Title field

    The title field needs to be lengthened, using Ninja Lister the title gets cutoff and i have to try and find where the listing is.

    I think that Ninja cuts off when the title is too long for listing, 56 characters, I think.

    Gazza may have to scratch his head to see if we can lengthen titles as Ebay has increased title lengths to be nearer to Amazon, so eventually I guess we have to pay attention to what others are doing.

    Agree, we could definitely use more title characters.

    Best wishes for many sales to all,

    Yes, loads more characters in the title. Then all we need to put in the description is 'See Title'.

    While not disputing that the character allowance needs to be increased,you could actually shorten your title by leaving out your sku.Not sure where the field is in Ninja but,in individual listings it's just below the description box.

    eBay rolled out a change that increased the
    number of characters available for item titles from 55 to 80 to
    help sellers maximize exposure of their listings in search results.

    as per auctionbytes.
