How to do BULK edit to my over 900 listings to add 'CASH' as payment
I want to set up 'payment by cash' to ALL my over 900 listings through BULK edit. The automated answer says, go to EACH listing & edit. THAT is not BULK edit. It will take several hours to do that individually. Can you please guide me how I can set up BULK edit for 'cash' payment please. Thanks.

Easyway would be to select all in MP in the box in left column, then in the Bulk edit dropdown select Payment methods, then select what payment methods you want. Note, if you are In Trade, although the Bank deposit option and Other (please specify) option appears in the payment methods section, it won't show in your listings if you select them.
Note: The payment methods is a replacement method ie it won't recognise any existing payment methods in each listing but all all selected to the methods you have ticked.
You may choose to select all, or just active listings only etc.
Make sure to tick the box to update all current listings, if this is what you want, else it will update products only and they won't update until they close and relist.
As screenshot here...

Note, it can take some time for the updates to live listings to complete in the background. You can sometimes speed this up by editing something else like a bulk footer if you have one. Often just an extra . or .. in the footer will force the update.

That was fantastic! All done. Thank you.
One more question out of curiosity: The boxes 'after pay' & 'cash' have dark blue shade in the background, but 'ping' has only a light blue shade. Why the difference in shades? Is that significant?0 -

No idea re the shading. I just see as per the screenshot I did just before. I previously had a mix of things in listings, so it can't be that it has detected some already being used. Presumably you have Afterpay and Ping setup already in your Trademe system, but if not, it could be a warning about that. If you go back as though you were going to do it again, does the shading still show? Can you post a screenshot?

I already had the PING & AFTER PAY. I clicked on everything including the new item 'CASH'. Only the Ping has the lighter shade. I did what you suggested...went back & tried again. Ping is still light blue. Here is the screenshot:

Ah, I see that's grey for Ping and that's only in the product itself screen, not the bulk edit screen I posted above. The grey Ping box pre-ticked means it's mandatory and can't be unticked.

Oh, Ok. Makes sense. Now I can have a restful sleep.
Thanks very much.
Cheers,
