Edit Listing

1. Overview

The Edit Listing flow allows Sellers to make updates to existing listings. This is accessed through the Details tab of the Dashboard, where each listing is broken down into clearly structured sections. These sections mirror the Create Listing flow but are tailored for post-publication edits.


2. Visual Reference

Listing Detail page (Published listing)

Sections within Listing Detail (Published listing)

Listing Detail page (Unpublished listing. Resume create listing)


3. Core Experience

3.1 Navigating Listing Sections

  • The listing sections in the Detail page is organized the same as the Create Listing flow:
    1. Location
    2. Setup
    3. About your space
    4. Photos
    5. Availability
    6. Health and Safety Measures
    7. Cancellations
    8. Pricing
  • Clicking "Edit" takes the Seller to the respective edit screen for that section.
  • The "Preview Listing" button allows Sellers to see how their listing appears to Users.

3.2 Design Differences from Create Listing

  • Progress Bar Removed: Unlike Create Listing, there is no need to show completion status.
  • Top Padding Increased: Provides more whitespace to improve readability during edits.
  • Action Buttons Updated: "Next" becomes "Done"; some platforms may show "Discard Changes" or "Delete Listing" options.

Modular by design

The codebase is structured in a modular, component-based way—making it easy for your team to modify, replace, or extend individual flows to fit your unique marketplace model. Whether you’re adjusting pricing logic, onboarding steps, or messaging behavior, customization is straightforward and isolated.

3.3 Resume Drafting an Unpublished Listing

  • If a Seller leaves the Create Listing flow after completing Step 3 (Title and Description), the draft is auto-saved.
  • Drafts appear in the Listing Dropdown with an "Unpublished" tag.
  • Clicking the draft resumes the Create Listing flow from the last completed section.

4. Platform Customization Notes

  • Add or remove sections based on platform requirements.
  • Change field validation, required fields, or add custom fields.
  • Adjust permissions for who can edit listings (e.g., only Seller, or also Platform Admins).
  • Add review/approval workflow for edits if desired.
