    Default Product Attributes and Bulk Edit

    Just found the new attributes added to stamps - but I can't bulk edit them in!

    Now I have only almost 2000 stamp listings but others have 10s of thousands. This is a major headache!

    I shall just do it a bit at a time - as and when. Listing more stuff comes ahead of this (2000 craft patterns....)

    I agree. I'm glad that I've got shipping defaults set up, so that revising postage is easy.

    There are thousands of items around here to list and I think that listing new items will take priority. Revision to existing listings is something that I do a few at a time as well.

    And the attributes are not exactly helpful - multiple mint (far too many) and just "used" when the usual would be Used, Fine Used and Very Fine Used.

    And the defaults chosen by the system are hopeless - the item may be marked "used" in the condition box but the attribute is "mint" and as for the date? It would be better not to select anything than to pick at random.

    Not a happy bunny!

    I'm listing knitting patterns for the first time in a while. I'd forgotten about the AWFUL product attributes. They were presumably designed by the same "expert" who wrecked the collectables categories?

    Since Gazza rarely shows up these days (wonder which beach he's on, couldn't he take a laptop?), have you tried moaning at support? What do they say?

    In fact he's so busy chilling out on that beach he's forgotten to renew the web site certificate:

    uk.ebid.net uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate expired on 15 November 2018, 23:59:59 GMT. The current time is 17 November 2018, 17:23. Error code: SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE

    Oh, I'm just venting. Gazza has never accepted that I may have some expertise in the areas on which I comment. I did finally win the "really, designer handbags are much more expensive than the items being listed here so they are fakes and illegal" battle, but since the redesign of the sub cats was declared to be by an expert, I have given up hope. Not sure why I post here at all. Will probably stop.
