Turbo Lister Issues & Solutions (Font Size, Template, & Wide Screen):

Creating a template in Turbo Lister saves a lot of time & hassle. You can pre-select most of your settings one time & will not have to start over again each time you create a new listing.

To create a Template in Turbo:

1) Create a new listing & fill it in with your usual settings & wording so you can save it for duplication as a template. For sections that must be filled in, such as title, we just fill in "A" & select a random category. However, refund policy, counter, shipping discount, etc. are all areas you can set up with standard settings.

Also, if you have a font size problem from Turbo, please note step 2. If not, skip to step 3.

Recently, we noticed our listing's font size was enlarged when importing listings from Turbo Lister to eBay. We checked with eBay & they said this is a technical gliche they are working on.

In the mean time, we found the below solution:

2) Before you duplicate your template, go to the html tab of the description:

If the code in front of the text looks like this only:

<P>

This is the problem & you will just need to add some codes before the wording, so it looks like below:

<P><FONT SIZE=2><FONT face=arial>

then add this code after your wording </FONT>

*The above codes create the font size & text style.

Please Note: Besides placing the code in one paragraph, you may need to insert it in new paragraphs. You will be able to recognize this when you look at the html code.

3) You'll probably need to add the below code to the top of your turbo listing to fix the wide screen problem. This will eliminate the need to scroll to the right to read the listing. 

<TABLE cellPadding=0 width="95%">

4) After you have done this, save the listing and this will be your template.

5) Click "duplicate" from the top of the Turbo screen to create as many templates as you need for your new listings. Be sure to always leave one template unused so that you can duplicate it later, or you can just save it in the template file.

Please let us know if any questions.
