When listing item, the ITEM CATEGORY is not auto suggesting categories anymore based on the title ?

For years, when i created a listing and changed the title to the current item I was listing, the Item Category section would suggest a few categories and I would choose the most appropriate and they were almost always correct.  For the past few months, it doesn't auto populate anymore and I have to manually find the category for each listing.  This is a pain as it slows down the listing speed.  I am hoping others have this same issue and we can get this fixed!  Thank you!

I've experienced the same.

 

If I sell similar and update the listing title, then click edit next to category - the system no longer suggests an appropriate category unless I type terms into the search box.

 

It's very inefficient.

 

Perhaps kyle@ebay can get our feedback to the selling team.
