Search functionality missing from Active Listings page - Website

[turninratchetsgarage520]

Ever since this new interface for active listings rolled out, I have been unable to find a way to search the *description* of my active listings. I used to be able to search my active listings using various fields from the Active Listings page, but now they're all gone -- or perhaps I'm blind.

Anybody know if this is a permanent change, or am I just missing something here? Attached is a screenshot of the current search functions.

That does look funky. My active listings page looks like this .....

Are you using Seller Hub?

Actually, it appears that there is more than one issue going on right now. Ebay shipping has been freezing up in drafts today....but it is Thursday.

I've never tried to search by description, but yes, many bits of functionality were removed in the new Active Listings page, which it appears not everyone is being forced to use yet (and maybe they'll roll it back).  We also can't filter based on which items already have Best Offer Enabled, which used to be a one-click thing.  I left feedback via the "Comments" link in the top right of that page, and recommend anyone else who is finding things missing or non-functional do the same.  They need to be flooded with reports about what isn't working before they might fix it, usually.

devon@ebay  can you pass along the feedback too that the new Active Listings page is missing functionality we used to have and need to be able to do certain tasks?  I did find my saved link that includes a filter for Best Offer Enabled still works, but the option has disappeared from the page.

Hey @brightlightbookseller! Thank you for your insight and I will be sure to have this passed along to the correct Product team.

@ebooksdivaYes, it looks like they're rolling something out probably in specific markets or something. I do not like the new setup.

@eburtonlabYes, Seller Hub -> Listings -> Active

@brightlightbooksellerI don't like the changes, either. Do you know when this started? I think it hit me about 2 weeks ago.

devon@ebayFeel free to lodge my dissatisfaction alongside that one. 🙂

Update: There is no update/change. Just replying to comments. 🙂

As of today, I've been rolled back to the old version, which I really prefer.  The look of the new one was more modern, but too much functionality was lost or just not working properly.

[turninratchetsgarage520]

Same. Reverted back today. Here's hoping they add the proper functionality before changing it again.

My Active Listing page just switched to the new version this afternoon for the first time. Anyone know if there's anything I can do to get the old page back?

All of my listings are cataloged via information contained within their listings, and I very badly need to be able to search within my listing descriptions.  Please help get this fixed!

@25kenwood 

Are you able to search your active listings by description using the older non-Seller Hub link?

https://www.ebay.com/mys/active

If nothing else works, you should be able to search your listings by description using a link like this:

https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fss=1&_saslop=1&_sasl=25kenwood&LH_SpecificSeller=1

[25kenwood]

Thank you for the links!

The first page is unfortunately not searchable at all:

The second link of course works to find listings, but then I cannot work with those listings, i.e. changing prices, sending offers, editing descriptions, etc (without going through every listing individually.)

I dislike this change intently. eBay really needs to stop putting time and money into fixing things that aren't broken and start fixing things that actually are and make improvements people actually want and ask for.
I loved having my main information right there on the seller hub page, now I have to dig for everything and figure out where that information is now.

At this point I feel like decisions are being made in meetings held deliberately with the topic of what they can do next to frustrate sellers.

Oh my goodness. I always use to search my active listings with the UPC from the description, so it would pull up exactly what I needed.  Now that is gone.  I'm about to remove hundreds of older listings to make room for new inventory and it is going to take 10x longer. This was a terrible move. Terrible.
