eBay-related Category Settings¶

To edit the eBay properties of a category, go to Products → Categories and click the category you want to edit. Then switch to the eBay tab.

Here you can choose how to assign a corresponding eBay category to the products you export to eBay. You can either use the category of the eBay template that you apply to the products, or assign a different eBay category manually.

For example, you want to export cell phones and golf clubs from your store to eBay. The shipping and payment methods are the same. Then you have 2 options:

• Make 2 separate eBay templates for golf clubs and cell phones
• Use one eBay template with Golf Clubs as its eBay Category, but manually choose Cell Phones eBay category for the Cell Phones category of your store.

A store usually sells many different items, which in turn may fall under many different eBay categories. That’s when the option to override your eBay template’s category may come in handy.
