Replacing Active Content

Active content will be disabled in all eBay listings starting in June, 2017. Frooition is here to help eBay sellers remove or replace any active content that they may have in their listings even if you are not currently using Frooition design.

Active content such as JavaScript and Flash hinders mobile purchases on eBay, creates longer load times, and increases security vulnerabilities. To ensure the best shopping experience, it�s important to replace active content in your listings now�before it�s disabled in all listings across all devices starting in June, 2017.

Whether you have 100 or 100,000 listings this can be a daunting task to approach. Your listings may contain Javascript or Flash, or you may be using YouTube videos to help describe your products. Active content covers many elements you may be using within your listings and knowing what needs to removed or can be replaced under eBay's active content policy can be difficult to understand.

Since the start of 2016 all Frooition design and apps have been active content free and are safe to use on eBay. However if you are using an older design, or don't use Frooition for design, you may have some questions on how you can update or remove active content from your live listings, all without having to relist and lose that vital sales history.

Just answer a few quick questions below to help us indentify what kind of active content you are currently using, and we can give free advice on your next steps to replacing active content in your eBay listings.

Have you had your design upgraded to be free of active content?

Yes, but I still have active content in my listings.

No, I need to update.

If your design has already been updated you may still need to complete a couple of tasks so that this change is reflected in all your live listings. You can get full details by signing in to your Frooition account. You can also check on individual listings and convert those listings to your new design there too.
