You mean glitchancement?

Store Categories and Subcategories are not working.

Can't they do anything right? (you don't need to answer that!)

I hadn't noticed the categories glitch. I did notice that the custom listing frame glitchancement frequently doesn't appear.

I don't see any problem with our store categories Yellowtonguerazz

...of course the last time I tried to edit them was in 2002 so that might explain why I'm not seeing the problem. Icon_biggrin

The custom listing frame is still missing from our listings. I did see it briefly earlier in the week. Big Grin

The eBay Express glitchfest launch should be fun to watch from the sidelines...even if I wanted to list my items on Express I couldn't because a glitch in my account settings is telling me "You are not qualified to sell on eBay Express at this time." : Smile

I opted out as soon as I heard the opt out option was available earlier today.
From what I've seen at the stores board there seems to be some really excited stores
users about all this. (Of course it is hard to tell who is "really" excited and who
was sent in to act "excited" to help "promote" the whole thing).

The more I think about it the more I see this as just another bone thrown their way in an attempt to keep those monthly subscription fees coming in from some who by now would have thrown in the towel.

Think about it. The only ones who may benefit is Stores and folks who already do
Fix Priced listing and folks with a 98% FB or better.

That is if ebay can manage to pull in all those
"non ebay" shoppers. Which I still think is highly doubtful.

The custom listing frame glitchancement only works on Internet Explorer. The eBay Stores developer team forgot to read the chapter on browser compatibility when they took the Web Design 101 class at Boinktard U. Tongue

Hello everyone,

We are aware that there are a number of bugs, and we are working hard to make sure that we address them. Below is a sampling of some of the bugs that we are currently working on. Please understand that this is by no means a comprehensive list. Thank you for all for your understanding.

Problems with Relisting/Revising an item:
The preview of listings when on the confirmation page is causing the page to not load correctly. We needed to temporarily turn of the Listing Frame in order to fix this bug, which should be fixed later tonight.

Custom Listing Frame:
The custom listing frame is not showing on non-windows explorer browsers such as Firefox. We are working on a fix for the issue.

Cross-Promotions:
When manually adding or changing a cross-promotion, the Custom Category Links are taking users to the main eBay category page. We have fixed the issue, and it should roll to the site shortly. In the meantime, I would suggest searching for items with the search feature on the top of the page.
Furthermore, it appears that items are not showing randomly in the promo widget on the View Item page, rather the same 4 items are showing. We are looking into what has caused this behavior in order to get it fixed ASAP.

I don't understand. I used it, tested it, all on Firefox when it first came out. Worked fine. Haven't tried it lately, tho............

It worked the 1st day or 2 and then as usual they made a code change and forgot to test for browser compatibility, EBay's track record on browser compatibility is horrible: for almost 2 years they had a notice up on their corporate employment site (www.ebaycareers.com) warning visitors that the site only worked with Internet Explorer.
