Advanced Search Problem

[fandan]

When I go to do an Advanced Search, another seller's ID automatically appears in the Sellers field. It's a pre-selected option/default - it's always there. I have to manually delete the seller's ID each time or I only get results for that particular seller. I have been unable to figure out how to not have that seller's ID automatically appear each time I do an Advanced Search. Any help would be appreciated!

@fandan,

If you are using the app I do not know why that is happening. My guess is if you just start typing the username you want to search for, the prefilled name will go away and it will allow you to continue.

If you use a computer to search By seller as soon as you type the first letter in, a drop down appears with other seller's you have advanced searched for, whose names start with the letter,  just continue typing and the it will allow you to enter the username you want. I always copy and paste a seller's username so the drop down doesn't appear.

There have been issues with Chrome inserting a username or email address into the Seller field of the Advanced Search page, turning a general search into a search of the user's own items.

If that is happening to you, you should be able to click on the Seller field on that page and delete the username or email address from Chrome's password manager. You may have to add it back when signing in again, but adding it back should not trigger the same issue.
