Issue: The link of your shop under the listing's title doesn't open your shop page

Is this a technical issue?

I just noticed today that when someone clicks on my shop link under the listing title, instead of opening my shop page, it just scrolls down the same page. This makes it difficult for people to view all of my items since they can’t actually access my full shop.

Has anyone else experienced this, and is it a bug that needs to be fixed?

Etsy did that a few days ago.

ugh ... I'm checking now.

Sounds dumb. 

I do like to shop in shops.

Thanks to their constant tinkering and installing crap, useless systems like this, they will continue to lose relevance and sales.

There is nothing that indicates otherwise; when you make shopping on a site difficult, shoppers will NOT hang around.

But this is what they seem to want, to sink into the dust bin of retail history.

Yes and I absolutely detest this change.  I was looking for sections and it made me have to click again.  I can tolerate a lot but this is truly getting out of hand and making me not want to shop for my supplies here.  I would hate not to as there are some terrific shops here with product I truly cannot get elsewhere but Etsy is driving me to distraction.

This seems to be a test. Hopefully it will go away. 

You can help it go away by not engaging with the link they've put at the bottom of the page to go to the shop. Yes, that is bad for those shops in the short term but etsy needs to learn that this is a useless and detrimental change.

Re: Issue: The link of your shop under the listing's title doesn't open your shop page

I'm so fully confused and frustrated. I had a bunch of listing links on my web page that used to go directly to the listing page, but now when I click on those links, it goes to a weird page with "Add to cart" and "See details".

ONLY if I click on "See details" does it bring me to the listing page. WTF. If I'm a shopper, I'd just give up. I also don't like how my direct listing link now brings to a page where it shows all of my competitor's products.

You have to click the sellers thumbnail photo ( which is not very obvious to do) but doing that will take a person to a sellers shop- I am assuming why my views are down 40% from etsy app and other pages

It was a test some months ago, then thankfully they stopped it again and now sadly it’s back. Every extra click makes people quit, so I am not sure why Etsy wants to make it more difficult to get to your shop from YOUR listing. It’s ridiculous and another counter productive step made by Etsy in regards to its sellers. 

Probably some wonderful big data experiment on their continuous mission to change things and to improve them. Which is probably doesn’t.

I'm on a Mac (Safari) and your shop name link on each listing page takes me to your shop home page.

I'm on a desktop and see 2 clickable side by side, one for your shop and one for the stars (reviews). Both take me where intended. Hope that's all it is.
