Etsy Bulk Shop Section Reorganizer

WHAT IT DOES

Etsy Bulk Shop Section Reorganizer is a shop management tool that enables rapid, bulk reorganization of your Etsy listings across shop sections. Instead of manually editing each listing individually—opening the edit modal, navigating to the section dropdown, selecting the new section, and saving—this script automates the entire workflow for multiple listings simultaneously. It scans your Etsy shop manager or listings page, identifies all your listings with their current section assignments, prices, and titles, and presents them as a scrollable checklist. You can select individual listings, use Select All/Deselect All toggles, choose a target section from a dropdown of your existing sections, and move your selections to that section in configurable batches. The tool handles the complete interaction sequence: clicking the Edit/Move button, setting the new section in the selector, and clicking Save/Confirm. Real-time progress updates show how many listings have been moved, and the list automatically refreshes after completion, reflecting your updated shop organization. This is ideal for seasonal reorganizations, launching new collections, or simply keeping your shop tidy and navigable for customers.

WHERE IT RUNS

This script operates exclusively on Etsy (*.etsy.com) as a userscript injected through the BotGentz extension. It runs within the context of your current browser tab—it cannot access other tabs, bookmarks, history, or downloads. The script reads the page DOM to identify listing cards using Etsy's shop manager selectors (.listing-card, .shop2-listing-card, .wt-card), extracts listing metadata including titles, IDs, current sections, and prices, and interacts with Etsy's native UI controls—Edit buttons, section dropdowns, and Save buttons—to perform moves. All operations occur locally in your browser; no data is sent to external servers. The script uses Etsy's authenticated session to manage your listings through the official user interface.

HOW TO USE

1. Navigate to your Etsy shop manager listings page (usually "Shop Manager" -> "Listings").

2. Click the BotGentz extension icon and select "Etsy Bulk Shop Section Reorganizer" from the script list.

3. The panel opens on the right side of the page. It automatically scans the current page for your listings.

4. Click "Refresh Sections" to load your existing shop sections into the dropdown. This may take a moment.

5. Review the displayed listings, showing title, current section, and price.

6. Select your target section from the "Target section" dropdown.

7. Adjust the "Batch size" number (default 5) to control how many listings are processed per move cycle.

8. Toggle "Confirm before each batch" if you want a confirmation popup before each batch executes.

9. Check the boxes next to listings you wish to move. Use "Select All" or "Deselect All" for quick selection.

10. Click "Move to Section" to begin. The script processes listings in batches, shows progress, and handles any errors.

11. After completion, the listing list automatically refreshes showing your updated section assignments.

WHY IT WORKS WHERE OTHERS FAIL

Many Etsy automation tools fail because they attempt to call Etsy's internal JavaScript functions or rely on brittle DOM selectors that change with every Etsy UI update. This script takes a resilient approach: it locates the actual interactive DOM elements Etsy renders—the Edit/Move button, the section dropdown selector, and the Save/Confirm button—and triggers native click events and value changes on them, exactly as a human would. When the Edit button is clicked, the script waits for the modal or inline form to appear, then locates the section selector using flexible selectors. It sets the target section using both the native value setter and dispatches "input" and "change" events, ensuring Etsy's JavaScript registers the update. It then finds and clicks the Save button. Between operations, the script introduces controlled delays (300ms between actions and 500ms between batches) to mimic human interaction speed and avoid triggering Etsy's anti-bot detection systems. By interacting at the UI layer rather than the framework layer, it remains functional across Etsy's frequent code updates.

THE PANEL

The script uses BotGentz's BGPanel system, which provides a floating, draggable panel on the right side of your screen. Drag the panel by its header to reposition it anywhere on the page—the panel remembers its position per site and snaps to the nearest edge when released. Click the minimize button to collapse the panel to a small floating bubble; click the bubble to expand it back. Resize the panel vertically by dragging its bottom edge. Press the Escape key to close the panel entirely. All panel state (position, collapsed/expanded) is persisted locally using GM_setValue, so your preferences survive page reloads.

PLEASE NOTE

This userscript requires the free BotGentz browser extension—it is not a standalone application. Etsy periodically updates its website layout and UI components; if the script stops working, an updated version may be released. This script does not store, transmit, or process any of your Etsy data outside your local browser. It does not access your password, hidden inputs, or file inputs. All listing moves are performed through Etsy's own authenticated session using the official user interface. Moving listings between sections changes their organization in your shop but does not affect listing visibility or sales history. Use responsibly and review your selections carefully before confirming.
