My items are not showing up unless I type in a specific search for them.

I posted two things today, 1 hours ago and they are not displaying under either the home or buying tab when I click on those. I have also drilled down into the specific category and they do not show up there either.

No obvious reason why – have filled in all my tags etc.

Interestingly, if I click on sort by listing date new to old, my items suddenly appear – but if I don’t click on that my items remain invisible but other people’s items seem to show up on both counts which is weird. Folksy doesn’t like me :(

I’ve realised over the past few days that it’s not just confined to me.

There are actually a lot of sellers items which don’t show up when they’re listed unless you actively click on Sort By Listing Date New to Old.

So if some people are wondering why their views are low it could be this bug.

I’m loathe to list much more until it gets sorted because my items are not being featured properly or getting the same exposure as some people’s items are.

Hi

I have been on loads looking at bits and pieces and I have to say I haven’t seen your bits. I have added you to my fav shops. Love your mushroom. I will tell myself thats why my views are low and not because I am rubbish lol….

Hi Zoe, thank you :) And no way are you rubbish, your Winifred is such a dear isn’t she. No it may be low views because Folksy is still very new and in beta mode and possibly because of this bug. Also I think listing every single day would give more exposure but if you’re like me you can’t craft that quickly LOL!

It’s explained as part of this thread :
