Why is my Store not showing up in the Crafts/Sewing list?

[redheadseller]

I finally got my store set up (Hummingbird Hutch). Hurray!
However, when I scan the Stores for Crafts/Sewing,
I don't see mine. I only have 5 listings so far but
some of the stores have less than that and show up.
Thanks for any help. I must have missed
a step somewhere along the line.

Is your store showing online, if not have you clicked the update section 2 button in your store

I can see it!
looks great

The list of stores is only updated every 4 hours and not in real time.

Yes, my store showed online and when I just now checked it shows under Crafts/Sewing. Thanks for replying. All is well.

Does that mean that after listing each item it takes 4 hours to update your store in the listings ?

[astral276]

Your store content and visible listings update immediately. Just in certain non-time critical places on the site the count is only updated every 4 hours.

Should your store show up under every catergory that applies, or is it limited to one? I ask because I moved some of my jewelry into the metaphysical section two days ago and my store still doesn't show in the list under that category.

The store will appear under whatever category you created it under. In your case: Jewellery & Watches : Artisan

If you want your moved items to appear elsewhere you will need to create another store (you get 5 for free) under that category and put your items in it.

Okay, good to know. Thanks for the info!
