TABLE OF CONTENTS
About & Important Information
When your store was first set up, it was given a default product listing template. This template produces the HTML description visible in the bottom half of the product listing page on eBay, and is set up as follows:
- Go to Settings - eBay Australia - Product Template
- View the HTML template in the "Product listing template" box
- Before you start to edit this section it is a good idea to make a copy of the template. You can paste it into a Notepad document.
- If you are comfortable with HTML, you may edit and replace this code with your own custom version. However, to make sure that details of the product appear, there are a number of fields you need to insert into the template.
- For example, to show the product title, you would insert ${product_name}.
- The default template has a number of these fields already in place for you to use as examples.
- The full set of available fields is here:
