Key Topic: Online Visibility
Online Visibility times are optional. They can control when different item types are visible on the Auction Website in the Item Catalog elements.
Suppose you do not specify any visibility times for an item type. In that case, your items will default to visible when configured to show online.
See Online Availability and Online Bidding Times for more information.
To access the Online Visibility dashboard from the main Auction Dashboard, click through Online Settings and then click the Online Visibility entry in the sidebar.
