But I still can't get it to work.. and according to Adam it was an Ebay RSS feed problem.. I wonder if we're talking about the same thing? Here's my example... I have a product that is in the clothing and accessories category, which is category # 11450 If i put 11450 for the category # in the Setup Page AND 11450 in the category page on the Home Page I get NO products on my home page.. and there is NOTHING in either query box.. If i go to the setup page and put 2 in the category page, it opens the mulitple category page.. if i put 12345,6789 in that field.. i still get NO listings on my home page.. so what is the deal?

Here’s my example…

I have a product that is in the clothing and accessories category, which is category # 11450

If i put 11450 for the category # in the Setup Page AND 11450 in the category page on the Home Page I get NO products on my home page.. and there is NOTHING in either query box..

If i go to the setup page and put 2 in the category page, it opens the mulitple category page.. if i put 12345,6789 in that field.. i still get NO listings on my home page..

so what is the deal? Am i doing something wrong or is there a problem?

thanks :)
