I always create new listings in my booth by duplicating old listings and changing the relevant information for the new item. Today I noticed when I duplicate the old item, the new listing loses all the formatting (bold text, text alignment etc.), some item traits, and some words get changed (“this auction” changes to “thissale”) ?!?! And then, after editing the listing, going back to add the formatting back in and saving the new item, it immediately loses the new formatting I just fixed! Is anybody else having the same issue?

Not having any trouble (that is the way it works now)..formats now have to be mobile compliant, which means plain text…

Yes, noticed this morning, since you mentioned it. Bold and italic gone, colors still there. Font and text size seem to still be in place. If that’s the way it’s going to be, because of mobile-compliance, as someone mentioned, that’s ok with me.
I think others have uploaded an image for their product descriptions. It includes all of the image-edited text and style designs that they want for their listings. At least, I think this is how it is done. Have noticed the elaborate design of some descriptions and thought of how I could do that too, if I want to take the time. Seems that those type of images would be mobile-compliant just as the product images are. Is my assessment correct? Or are these attention-getting, heavily-formatted descriptions done some other way?

When are the gurus going to fix this. I have not added items of recent however
I was always able to paste from word and it would keep my formatting.
Now it is not working AT ALL and I have tried BOTH Internet Explorer and
Firefox on my desktop with no success. I am talking NEW Item Additions.
It really is a PAIN to need to format individual lines after pasting in the
text and will keep me from listing as many future items if this cant be
corrected. It worked before so please fix it again. I have exhauseed all
versions I used in the past to get this to work.

Yep. Bold text and paragraphs with larger fonts never stick for me. I am new setting up a booth and I have 750 items to list and its not fun doing each listing one by one due to the batch editor bugs and the many bugs just like you’re describing.
