Rearranging Items in Shop - Visual Merchandising

[#1]

This is a request/suggestion to change the way we are able to rearrange items in our shops. Who is with me?

I like to organize items in my vintage shop by categories and color line by line. It has always been hard to rearrange items on etsy but it seems to have gotten even more difficult. When you are moving items from page to page, if you are on the last page you can no longer click back to the 1st page without exiting edit mode. I would also love to highlight say 8 items and move them to the back page after a holiday has ended etc.

I personally find visual merchandising important. I send people to my shop that are going to my homepage not just from a searched item. I want my shop to be easy to shop and visually appealing.

If anyone has tips and tricks, I would be most appreciative. And Etsy admin if you could look into ways of improving this for your sellers, that would be amazing!

Thanks,

Megan

I also rearrange my front pages all the time (can’t afford to redecorate my house) and it is set to ‘custom’.

@NoFrogsAllowed  That’s ok I don’t think I made it very clear!

@WearYourRocks  And there I go and immediately change it to most recent. Yes, your custom setting is prettier and tidier, however your regular customers who are following your shop will be much more interested in most recent, they don’t want to be search ing through all the stock every time they come to your shop, they want to see what’s different and new, even if that isn’t all that aesthetically pleasing.
