Fast eBay Listings

The simplest method is to enter your eBay user name in the setting field 'Default Seller ID(s)'. Then all block, shortcode or widget queries will filter results to just the stock you have listed on eBay. Alternatively, you can set the eBay seller to filter results per block or shortcode you add to your site.

The latest eBay APIs mandate that any queries on a seller ID must also search by a category ID or some search query terms. Try setting a search query and/or category ID in addition to your seller id.

First, you need to sign up to the eBay Partner Network. Then create a Campaign within your EPN account. Enter the 10-digit Campaign ID into the 'Affiliate Campaign ID' plugin settings field. Done! Note: the free version of this plugin will divert 50% of eBay links generated to earn the developer commission and help maintain and support this plugin's development.

No! Fast eBay Listings does not add any external links on your website back to the author's site. This clutters up your website, hurts your search engine ranking and is against WordPress plugin guidelines! Only links to eBay items you want on your website are presented and these are all tagged as 'nofollow' to avoid any negative SEO impact. You can optionally choose if eBay links should open in a new tab/window.

Fast eBay Listings supports several types of slideshow and pagination; manual, auto, 'load more' button, list by category. Manual: Will present slides that visitors can manually step through using buttons beneath. Auto: Will present a slideshow that automatically steps through the slides, fading between each every 10 seconds by default. You can change the slideshow speed in the plugin settings. 'Load more' button: Will present a button for visitors to load the next slide/page of results beneath the rest. List by Category: Will present a long list of results grouped under eBay category headings. All slideshows can be configured with as many slides as desired, limited only by the number of items returned from eBay. Each slide can be configured with as many rows and columns as desired to produce a grid of items per slide. Manual and Auto slideshow work best when displaying a grid with 1 or 2 rows of results. The 'Load more' button works best when displaying large numbers of results for a visitor to scroll through (especially mobile users).

The search query field uses standard eBay syntax, so you can prefix a keyword with the minus sign to exclude it. For example: Sony TV -CRT Will search for all listings with the words 'sony' and 'tv', but exclude those with the word 'crt'.

Use the parenthesis eBay search syntax. For example: Yamaha (motorcycle, motorbike) Will search for all eBay listings with the word 'Yamaha' and 'motorcycle' or 'motorbike' in the title.

Fast eBay Listings has added a new metadata entry to each WordPress user's profile page, where they can enter their own eBay username. The search shortcode and widgets that can filter results by an eBay seller, also accept a special keyword 'author', which will trigger the plugin to look up the current post or page's author and retrieve the above eBay username from their profile. This will then be used to filter the eBay search results. If the WordPress user has no eBay username set, then the plugin will fall back to the default seller as configured in the plugin options.

The latest eBay API serves images in the sizes 225px and 1000px. To avoid in-browser scaling, choose one of these sizes.

Within the settings, you choose to inherit your WordPress theme's color scheme (default), black text on white background, or white text on a black background style. Alternatively, you can override the CSS styles manually. Please get in touch with the visual customization you would like in future releases.

Within the setting you can choose which fields to display for search results on Blocks/Shortcodes, results shown on widgets and for the single item block/shortcode separately.

The ‘Right Now on eBay’ logo is mandated by eBay T&Cs and must be shown next to any eBay content. To remove it would violate eBay’s policies and could put your eBay Partner Network membership at risk.
