Woodturning and Crochet
Hi,
My husband has a woodturning site, but has to sprea all his items around.Please can you at least ass a "WOOD" items category.
I sell crochet items and am totally frustrated that there is a "KNITTING" category which I have to put my items in and not a "CROCHET" category.
Please can you add these categories as there are a lot of us that are in need of them and would help us promote our items to the right people.
Thanks

backpacks as section
if searching there are a good number, it would be better seo to have a dedicated section

Opt out of listing expiry emails
I appreciate that a lot of people find these new emails useful but I have loads of products and try to list/relist every day so I'm getting them all the time. Please let us opt out of these emails. My inbox fills up quickly enough as it is!

It would be nice to be able to see the whole item title when you hover the mouse over the item picture in theme or category views.
It would be nice to be able to see the whole item title when you hover the mouse over the item picture or title in theme or category views. At the moment, the text displayed has a limited number of characters so you have to click on the item for the full title, and often I just don't bother doing so which means I skip over the item if it is unclear from the first few words what it is.

Can you remove the word limit for the shop welcome, or at least increase it significantly?
400 characters is ridiculous; if I need to add details like last posting dates or when I will be closed for craft fairs, I have to remove my current (brief) shop welcome entirely to fit it in. As it is, with my Christmas posting dates up, I don't now have any space to let people know how long I will be closed for my Christmas craft fairs. I'm sure you will point out I could add these details to my profile, but who looks there when they want to purchase an item??

Billing Information for Plus Accounts - Item Information should be shown for each re-list.
I have just had my first Folksy Bill. Part-way through my first month, I upgraded my account to a Plus seller account.
I notice that the Re-listed items shown on my bill's Detail Page have no item details.
This makes it difficult to keep track of what I have re-listed and monitor any effect it may have had on sales etc.
The information is there in the system, at the point when I re-list an item. Could it not be written to the bill's Detail Page, just as it was when I had a basic seller's account?

Category filtering in Manage Listings
Could we sort or filter our listings in the dashboard by shop section or category? With 4 pages of listings it can be hard to spot the one I want, and not all options are available from the listing page (eg. hide from sale and change quantity to zero).

link site to social media and personal "who has viewed what" section
to be able to link folksy to social media sites would be great as i have to keep loggin in to each stit everytime i want to share and also have a feedback section that we can see how many has viewed our items and from where and which items have been searched for ? something like etsy does ?

folksy.it short links available to us for twitter/fb etc.
I'd love to have access to the folksy.it short links for my product listings, as I think it's great to let people know on twitter and fb what they are clicking on without using a massive untidy looking link.
I know fb previews links, but often I want to actually upload a photo of the product and put the link in the photo description as this looks bigger and better than linking directly to an item on fb.

Feedback to reflect multiple purchases
I have one client who bought 22 items but it only gives me one feedback. it looks like i have 21 people who didn't like my stuff.
17 votesWe will be reviewing the way that feedback works in the future, and will take this situation into consideration, so that we can more accurately reflect positive buying experiences on the site.

Being able to search completed (already sold) listings.
This is something that eBay has which is a good way of looking at what prices similar things to yours have sold at, so you can price your item reasonably for the buyer and you don't have to hang around for ages before realising your item is priced too expensively. Also good for buyers to find out what's a reasonable price.

Returning to edit
When you list or edt an item, we are taken to see item and no option to edit another without having to go back to our shop again., It would be good to be able to list another there or edit another !
7 votesA link to list another item could be added to the confirmation message and the prompt to share the item on social networks.

The Option of Seeing Your Listing Balance Including VAT
I've been away from Folksy for quite a few months so I didn't realise that this was now added separately so it came a little bit of a shock to find that the listing feed didn't include it and was added at the checkout. I'd been in a monthly listing club so it added quite a bit to my overall bill. Thanks.

It would be really useful if 'Listings' was one of the options on the drop-down menu
It would be really useful if, after editing an item you could simply go to the menu and choose 'listings' rather than having to click on dashboard and then listings.
