 * I already have manually listed products on woocommerce and eBay. Originally I
   did not have matching shipping classes but I have since created shipping profiles
   on ebay which correspond to my shipping classes on woocommerce and manually updated
   my eBay listings to adopt the new shipping profiles.
 * How do I link the listings on woocommerce to the listings on ebay?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fsyncing-2%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@hippyer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hippyer/),
 * You will need the [importer add on plugin](https://www.wplab.com/plugins/import-from-ebay-to-woocommerce/)
   to connect/import active eBay listings into WC/WP-Lister.
 * If the products on eBay already exist in WooCommerce, with our importer plugin
   you can enable the “Match Existing SKUs” setting on the advanced options page
   of the importer plugin. That will have the importer simply connect eBay listings
   to WooCommerce products if the SKUs match. If an SKU on eBay does not match an
   SKU in WooCommerce, the eBay listing will be added to WP-Lister and created as
   a WooCommerce product.
 * But note, this only works with simple listings. For variable listings you would
   then have to set the “Import mode” to “Only new items” after importing the first
   time with the “Match existing SKUs” setting, in order to pull in the variable
   listings as well. But the variable listings from eBay that would be imported 
   on the second import would be created as new products in WooCommerce. So you 
   then would need to delete the existing variable listings in WooCommerce before
   importing the variable listings in the second import.

 * Thank you!
 * I haven’t been using SKUs on WC or ebay. Does this mean that i will have to add
   matching SKUs on both platforms before running the add on plugin?

 * Also, can i opt to exclude some ebay listings from being imported? Some of my
   ebay listings are not suitable for my WC store.

 * I’ve clicked ‘revise item’ on ebay and I see no option to enter a SKU. I’m on
   the UK site. Is it MPN perhaps?

 * Hey [@hippyer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hippyer/)
 * _I haven’t been using SKUs on WC or ebay. Does this mean that i will have to

 * Yes, that is correct.
 * _Also, can i opt to exclude some ebay listings from being imported? Some of my

 * Sorry but no, you either import all listings from your eBay store into WC, then
   delete the ones you wish to not use in WC & WP-Lister (which if you do that you
   should make sure to archive the listings in WP-Lister’s “Listings” page, _before_
   deleting them from WC) or you can import listings one by one by providing the
   eBay ID into the main page of the importer add on plugin.
 * _I’ve clicked ‘revise item’ on ebay and I see no option to enter a SKU. I’m on
   the UK site. Is it MPN perhaps?_
 * It is usually labelled “Custom Label” on eBay.
 * Kind regards,
    John

 * Hey [@hippyer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hippyer/)
 * Sometimes it might be labelled as “COD” as well.
 * I am sorry but I don’t have an eBay UK account so I cannot check what the label
   looks like on eBay UK. Your best bet really would be to contact eBay seller support
   about this and ask them where you can locate the EAN and SKU when revising active
   listings on eBay.
 * Kind regards,
    John
