Listing titles are limited to “80” characters

Updated on May 29, 2024

Full error name: “Listing titles are limited to “80” characters. ErrorCode: 70“

Cause

On eBay, listing titles are limited to 80 characters. 

This can turn out as a problem when you’re bulk listing products that you exported from another channel, where the allowed title length is much longer compared to eBay.

Solution

Activate the “Shorten Titles” function. With this function active, Nembol will:

  • Automatically shorten your title to a number of characters smaller than 80.
  • Avoid truncating any words.

How to activate the Shorten Titles function:

  1. Access the Channels tab.
  2. Open eBay.
  3. Go to Publish settings.
  4. Turn on the “Shorten Titles” function.
  5. Save.

With this function activated, your titles will be automatically shortened to the maximal allowed length.
