Option to Link photos in Variations Tab missing

[LyfeSutra]

Dear All,

On my listing I would like to link the photos to the variations

But, the tab seems to be missing. I only see Manage variations tab but the Link Photos tab is misisng!

Can anyone help me to enable this somehow?

If you are using the old listing page then that option is not available. It should be there on the new listing page, if not then that is indeed a problem.

But I have problems with the New Listing software.  Often, after spending the time to link all the variations, when I hit "Save Draft", I get an error message, "Etsy is having trouble saving your changes. Please try again later." It's very frustrating!

@LyfeSutra  Sorry to contradict the previous answer, but the link photos option IS there on the old version, showing on the main listing page where it always has - the new listing page has everything in one sub-window for the Variations - click to edit/create, scroll down and you will see the option.

I am having the same issue.  maybe in new version I am just not seeing where to link photos....but all I can do is re arrange or delete them and im pretty sure it's some sort of glitch.

I ran into this problem too and I really had to hunt for the way to do it in the new editor. 

1. Go to variations

2. Click on "manage variations" 

3. Click the edit button toward the top that looks like a pencil

4. Click the toggle that says "link photos to this variation." 

It should then give you the options to link the photos.

I contacted ETSY helpdesk twice for this problem and both times they did not help. All the Y ouTUbe videos fail to mention this as well. This answer to click on the PENCIL is the 1st time I heard of doing that. Now I can get this to work. Thank you.

always wonder why some improvements make things tricky and more difficult !

On the seller app there is no option to link images to variations FYI.
