• HTML: If you have web development experience, you can edit the HTML code directly by switching to the HTML tab.
  

Enter the Weight, Length, Height, and Width of a package here.

This information can also be entered using Inventory Module and that information will propagate here when saved and changes in Listing Manager will reflect in Inventory Module

Dimensional Weight is a calculation used by many shipping carriers. It applies extra shipping charges for items that are light in actual weight, but large in shipping volume.

A warning will appear if your package is oversized, reminding you to check if the shipping service being used will handle a package with these dimensions.

To add images to a listing from Listing Manager open the listing and click the add button on the right in the images frame.

Select an image to add to the listing.

You can select multiple images by using ctrl-click or shift-click.

If your image(s) are larger than 200KB, Listing Manager will give a warning. Click OK to proceed.

Note: It is recommended to keep images smaller than 200KB for web optimization purposes, but larger images are not restricted and will upload normally after the warning message.

Images for the listing will be displayed on the right side and will upload to the website when listing an item or updating a listing.

If you are editing a listing that was not ready to list, you can checkmark Ready to List! at the top and click Save.

Note: Items that are set as Ready to List will sync automatically to their appropriate web marketplace after a few minutes and require no further action.
