Hello. I have an item that I was hoping to launch tonight, but every time I click to launch it the title reverts to the pre edit title of the item I used as a template. The item is in my prelaunch inventory folder and should read "Gorgeous Ralph Lauren shorts 22w NWT" I have been careful to save the changes during edits and the title is correct in my inventory. When I check the item and click launch, the item appears on the launch scheduling screen with the title "Liz claiborne white shirt" etc. (the title of the inventory item I copied and edited to create this auction). I have gone back and re-done the process of viewing the title, clicking OK and clicking the item to save it. The same thing happens each time I try to launch. Any idea how to fix this?
In previous auctions not all my changes were kept at launch in a couple of items even though they were saved and double checked in inventory. It makes me nervous that my saved changes are not being remembered by the program correctly because there are alot of edit parameters that can flip to other wrong values with the click of the launch scheduling button that are not necessarily dectable in the preview. If the site specifics like price, duration, buy it now etc. are affected, we won't discover it til after launch if our settings in inventory don't hold. Fortunately this error is able to be seen in the both preview and on the launch screen. Thanks!

The title glitch was also occurring in inventory on the item now and then, but not every time. I redid both the inventory item and the item in pending and the changes seem to be holding in time for launch tonight. Any idea why this should have been a problem?
Note that there are two places where you can store a title for your items. One on the main inventory tab and another on the 'site specifics' tab.
Click to edit the title on the 'site specifics' tab and if you have already changed it to the new title on the inventory tab, simply check the box to use the default title.
When you are creating an item from scratch, it automatically duplicates the title from the inventory tab over to the site specifics tab. When you edit existing items however (which includes copied listings) changes can be made independant of each other, so just be sure to either duplicate your title changes on the site specifics tab or simply click to 'use default.'
