I think that a lot of you sellers are as disgusted with the "New" selling page views as I am.
I like the original "Classic" view because I was able to do a great many more things with it. I could go to the page and see the complete history of my active listings, sold and unsold. I now have to click 3, 4 or more times just to get what is needed. All I had to do was scroll down to what I needed and there it was. I was even able to access old listings that were deleted if needed.
As for photos, There is no way to enhance, sharpen, lighten or darken anymore.
With the original "Classic" view I had everything right at my fingertips.
Please post this and complain to eBay as many times as possible and maybe, then we can get something done and get back to the easy way of doing things.
Please let me know if you agree with me.

I agree and finding myself listing fewer items to avoid the navigation hassle

Now, if only eBay would listen to their sellers.

The new page is absolutely regressive. Forget about the function it does or doesn't do.... It just plain looks UNPROFESSIONAL... like Ebay had a foreign kid in a straw hut develop it. I get that maybe the code was out of date....their excuse. But, there is no reason whatsoever in whatever code you wanted to use, make it look like the original PROFESSIONAL looking Classic page..... other than MONEY. Seriously Ebay.....you cut corners on this and we are calling you out on it. Hire a professional web developer to rewrite the old page.

Thank you so much for seeing that. I just hope the big guys at eBay see that and do something about it.

Someone tinkered with the page HTML and found these workaround links to the classic views.
They all currently are working when I try them.
I would urge everyone who prefers the classic view to click the link on each page on the right that says "tell us what you think" and tell them what you think. That you prefer that classic view - and to provide a linked option to that classic view somewhere on the Ebay home page.

" I now have to click 3, 4 or more times just to get what is needed."
Exactly! This new design is the worst revamp I've seen on any site. For the record, I've been using the internet since it first became a thing.
Just today I tried to find deleted listings, but I guess that's not a thing anymore... I talked to four eBay representatives, which took up my entire morning and none of them had a clue where it went or if it was still even a feature... This was the straw that finally broke the camel's back after dealing with all the aggravation regarding the convoluted new view. I took down most of my listings because I don't want to deal with this site anymore. Plus where did all the selling promotions go?

The new pages - that's what it should be called because you have to go from one place to another to get anything done - it takes longer to do anything and I hate the fact that they don't have the dates in sync whereas before they would have the ending date first now they are all over the place and auction was always first. Now if I want to check on the auction items I have to put in auction and then hit search. Before everything, and I mean everything was on one page. Messages easy to see not hidden in a corner on the upper right. How much feedback a person needed to send, solds, ready to ship, unsold - just everything. For a while I was just shedding frustrated tears but have decided that I will just have to put up with this menagerie. We had a wonderful helpful first page and the seller hub also what more did they want for pete sake. I usually have over 100 paintings for sale and I just wonder how people who have hundreds of items for sale can do it and why bigger sellers aren't getting after ebay. This time that I have to waste on my site takes away from me creating more art work and I'm sure it takes many people away from their initial work also.

If you go to Marketing you will find promotion information under "advertising dashboard" and I have no idea why they moved it to that title and if you want to see your number of views for the day change the heading from impressions and put it to clicks.

These links stopped working a couple of months ago. eBay wants to force us into the new format. I have been gradually moving away from eBay because of this re-design failure..... So eBay's genius idea of a new format didn't make me become a better seller.....

Where will I find Marketing? I can't find anything with this new messed up format. Thanks.

You find it's one of the headings in Seller Hub.
07-04-2021 10:57 PM
Yes. I think the same as you
07-04-2021 10:59 PM
Exactly right. Thanks for answering.
