Use a browser and not the app.

Be sure to refresh your browser, so you're not looking at a cached page. Sometimes changes take a little while to actually show up. Wait a few minutes or so and check again.

@MetaCuriosity: Are you using the "new" listing form or the "old" one?

Re: Description doesn't change when I edit it

When I go and see my listing on the Etsy Seller app (as if I tried to edit it) the new description appeared. But when I go on my page as a client, I don't see anything

@MetaCuriosity: Try using a browser instead of the app - even using a mobile browser seems to provide a better experience than the app.

I tried it in Edge, Opera and Brave browser, it doesn't work in any. I use the "new" listing for a new listing

I'm using Chrome and can't edit any listings. The page just goes blank. I've rebooted and still having problems.

Tu as essayé d'utiliser une page de navigation privée ? Parce que quand j'ai fais ça, ça a fonctionné !

Hey ! I found the solution. Try to visit your Etsy shop through a private browser. When I did this, I could actually see my new description !

So Etsy, what’s going on??? You don’t want us to change titles anymore? That’s terrible user experience 🤬 don’t let us alone with this! Do something!! We pay you for this to work!!!

Re: Description doesn't change when I edit it

Same problem, had to deactivate my listing. I had the same problem re an older listing and today I note that my account said there was a 'saved but unpublished change'. So the issue is that the 'publish' feature isn't working as it should.

Re: Description doesn't change when I edit it

I noticed that any time I edit my listing directly from the listing page I encountered this same problem, but when I edit the item from the shop manager / listings page it updates fine...
