I made a software to create listing for parts, then it publishes them under the general motorcycle parts category, every time it does though, it doesn't actually publish and i get this return message. Has anyone seen this before and does anyone know a fix? Uploading 1 listing(s) to eBay [production][1/1] webapp_data\photos\6051d119-thermostatWrote upload_results.json! {'step': 'publish', 'detail': 'All category candidates rejected by eBay.', 'attempts': [{'category': '179753', 'step': 'publish', 'code': 400, 'body': {'errors': [{'errorId': 25005, 'domain': 'API_INVENTORY', 'subdomain': 'Selling', 'category': 'Request', 'message': 'The eBay listing associated with the inventory item, or the unpublished offer has an invalid category ID. The category is not valid, select another category.'}]}}]}
