OpenBazarr: Ability to Create Custom Listing Templates

The software discussed in this article can be found at:
https://www.openbazaar.org/

Components

This feature request pertains directly to the listing section of the OpenBazaar client.

Proposal

OpenBazaar needs the ability to create and save custom listing templates. Once that's in place, there needs to be a saved list of already saved templates that sellers can browse through and select every time that they go to list an item. We will call this the templates manager.

This can be done simply by having an option to save a listing into the proposed Templates Manager located within the listing's page.

Mockups / Examples

Here's what a proposed "Saved Template" page might look like:

Here's what the Templates Manager might look like:

Benefits

There are several benefits to this, including:

  • Faster listings for sellers
  • Less of a need to repetitively copy & paste similar listings.
  • High-traffic marketplaces like eBay & more already have this feature implemented. OpenBazaar needs to match their desirable features in order to exceed them as a marketplace.
  • The templates manager would be much more versatile than the current "clone listing" option.
