How do you batch shipping calculated?

I tried to change all mine from fixed rate to calculated shipping and I lost all my listed items except 10. They are all there with a little yellow circle but will not show up on my selling page, How can I get 600 items to show as they did before I tried the batch edit thing?

Open a few items and find out what is missing from the items…my guess is that there is no weights/size entered.

You will have to have the weight entered for all items before calc shipping can be used. Any item without a weight will not have the information needed for that shipping method.

So if you have items with different weights, you will have to do the batch edit each/like items together..

Select the items, enter a weight, apply to selected items and continue until all items are finished

Also note, you will still have to select the shipping options for your buyers to choose from, if not, most will go with the least expensive (first one) from the list…which will usually be media mail….and unless things have changed, the only way I know to do this is individually or a shipping profile
Create a shipping profile(s) and apply the created profile in batch edit

find the items by using the Batch Editor filer to search for items that are “incomplete”.

While Batch Update “Sounds” like a great tool, Things that happen like this and corrupt all your items is one of the reasons I never liked to batch update anything here anymore. Tried it once, messed everything up on me so never again.
Fool me once, shame on you but fool me Twice…..

No Thanks, will do it individually!

Good Luck
