It seems recently stores have changed, including mine, and I can no longer find any search bars to search within anyone's store?
Was there some kind of update I missed or an option I haven't ticked somewhere? It seems ridiculous to have a store with thousands of listings which you can't easily search. Help appreciated.
Solved! Go to Solution.

now you have to go in thru the user id and items for sale?
This is driving me bonkers.
Especially when it's a large store with a custom template but without normal store categories to use to navigate - anchor stores can also remove the search bar at the top entirely, so getting to an actual list of items in order to conduct a category or keyword search with a specific seller is now a real PITA.

I noticed that too but, as per usual with changes, when I used it, the search defaulted to a general search of eBay and was NOT limited to the store.
That seems to have come good today but I think we'll have to keep an eye on it.
When you've looked at the item, use the back arrow.
That way you're still searching the same store.

Don't like it at all. Used to be a lot more simple, and intuitive with the info down LH side and then being able to search from there. Unfortunately I think we have to just go with it.

@ Stawks - Doesn't take away from the fact that we no longer have an internal store search function.
@ Glen - I agree, a totally egregious change designed to drive buyers back to general search.
@ Brerrabbit - I agree, they seem to be trying to drive the site into the ground.
I could go on and on but it makes no difference; we'll get what we're given and no correspondence will be entered into.
Some "partnership"!

I understand the problem for most stores, but I'm in collectables.
I have an established return buyer base, plus newbys arriving all the time.
As long as I have categories listed on the left hand side, they know where to look.

it is a bit hard to see at first because they changed the location - when you click on a store - the search bar is the very first line - right at the top
