All the seller descriptions are appearing on the left-hand side of a page. Whenever I click
on a new page, the same changes appear that were not formatted to read in this new
annoying format. The right side of the page is mostly white space, unused with no wording.
What is going on here? Can this be fixed or is this the new eBay life?

Use HTML description templates.😊

This has been a complaint for a while.
I use Mozilla Firefox and it appears as you have stated.
Only seems to happen with text. Not on all listings.
Not sure on a solution.
I can read your listing. Good luck!

"Use HTML description templates."
It seems that plain text with no HTML causes this quirk.
Makes sense.
Nice!

This sounds like a technical description on your end.

It has been posted on a few boards, seems to be an off and on glitch. I find Chrome or Edge best suited to the Bay

Is it possible that the Format of having the Description on the Left Side
of the Page only..when an item is Searched ..makes it Easier for Buyers who use their Phones
to read Descriptions and to Buy on eBay...?

I have recently had the same problem using Firefox and found a suggestion on another site to clear the browser's cookies, either for that specific site (click on the padlock in the address bar whilst on ebay and then click on Clear Cookies and Data) or for the entire history (under Firefox Settings, Privacy and Security).
The first suggestion didn't work for me, but the second did. Only problem is that you have to re-enter any stored details for ALL sites afterwards, including Cookie acceptance etc.
That wouldn't be so bad but after a few days of it working fine, the problem has returned. Could be an eBay or Firefox problem, not sure which but I suspect eBay as I don't see this problem on other sites.

It's definitely still a very annoying problem. Once in awhile I can refresh the listing page I'm viewing and get it to show up properly, but most of the time it won't.

Same here, this has been going on for about a month. It is frustrating. I have tried all the above mentioned "fixes" only to have it return. It is hard reading sellers item descriptions this way, and almost impossible on some listings. All the info is squeezed to the left in a thin vertical column.

Everyone is complaining but no one seems to have a solution!!

I need to re-do numerous listings for new products!!!
This is turning out to be a NIGHT MARE!!

Yep, Still happening with no solution. Sometimes a reload will work.
