Better instructions needed for marketplace sellers..

[Morgana Hilra]

Now, I do understand that 80% of you understand how to make a marketplace listing.. unfortunately, not everyone.. including myself.. understands it.

I have obisiously used MP for selling since the new proceedure was implimented however, each time has been a headache!

Like today.. I was listing my items.. could not figure out what I was doing wrong, since the items would not show up on MP... I asked for help, and I opened a support ticket because, I was positive I followed exactly what I had done last... but, nope!

I missed a vitial part of it, which my big brother figured out, within seconds of entering my house... in which I was getting so fustrated...

I wish, that maybe LL and or, Firestorm could impliment a tutorial that you could access easier.. like, maybe a button on the actual popup, giving you access to a video or something.. because, searching through the help menu, or the many forum posts, can be some what daunting... 

Anyway.. it's just an idea.. and to the people reading this, thinking I must stupid.. I'm not.. I am just tired, stressed, over worked, in pain, and about to go out of my mind.. yay for insanity!

And to anyone else.... that is reading and agreeing... maybe we can help each other.. for now, I am off to list my silly items, lol... and go to bed, as I had planned. 

Wish me luck. xoxo.:robotsurprised:

Greetings Morgana Hilra,

I am so sorry to hear that you are having difficulty with creating product listings on the Marketplace using the Viewer Managed Marketplace system.

There is a guide available, located here:

Viewer Managed Marketplace Guide

Briefly, here are the steps to creating a new listing:

1. Add the item to the Marketplace Listings window

2. Right click on the folder and choose 'Create Listing'

3. Right click on the folder again and choose 'Edit Listing' and fill out all of the require fields.

- After filling out the required fields:

4. Right click on the folder and choose the option 'List'.

Torley Linden was aswesome enough to create some videos for everyone to help them understand the Viewer Managed Marketplace system. Those videos are located in Section 5 of the Viewer Managed Marketplace Guide.

Here is the direct link for convenience:
