Edit Item Details

January 2023: the current dashboard release has new graphics and some interface changes. Many screenshots still reflect the older release and will be updated shortly.

The Item Details page is the main dashboard for reviewing and modifying existing items. After an item has been added to the event, you can go to its respective Item Details page to make almost any edit or add more information as needed.

INFORMATION

If the specific item is a Basket And Packages item, there will be a Contents tab also displayed across the top of the page.

A standard Item Details page will have its main Summary tab opened by default displaying the majority of the item's information. There will also be an Images / Links, Activity, and History tab. There are also a number of actions available from the sidebar on the left side of the screen. Also to note, depending on the Item Type, there may be different panels available for the item.

Bid Details

Tags

You can add or remove Tags from this text field as needed. To add Tags to an item, type the name of the Tag into the text field box. To add multiple tags to an item, separate them with a comma, or space.

 ∞ Using Auctria > Tags

IMPORTANT

Tags should only use letters, numbers, hyphens (-), and underscore (_) characters. Entering a tag using a comma or space will create a tag from the letters before the comma or space and start another tag using the characters entered after the comma or space.

Although a tag cannot have spaces, you can use an underscore _ or a hyphen - to create a "separation" between multiple words in a tag, for example: another_tag or extra-tag. There is also the option to use camelCase for multi-word tags such as myGreatTagIdeaNumber1.

Expanding on the example above, the clickable options (1 or 2) to remove tags.

  • Image pointer 1, removing a single tag, click the small x on the left side of the specific tag; or,
  • Image pointer 2, removing all tags from the item, click the X at the right side of the Tags box.

To modify Tags on multiple items, see Unknown link 'ModifyTags' for more information on this approach.
