the My Text button Data

If you have standard text that you use for every auction, for example you may use the
same About Me, Contact and Shipping information for each of your
auctions. You can
edit any of the following text files to contain your standard information so it is ready to
copy and paste into your template without the need to retype it each time.
You may edit any of the following seven text files that are
located in your atb folder:
Found at:
C:\ > atbuild > atb
aboutme.txt
contact.txt
description.txt
lastcomment.txt
payment.txt
shipping.txt
terms.txt
You should be able to double left click on the folder name to have it open in your text editor.
Modify the contents of the file with your information, save the file then close it.
The next time you click the My Text button in the Template Builder, a window will open and display your
information ready for you to copy and paste into the appropriate field.
For
example, the Shipping text file (shipping.txt) contains this
information now.
This feature is only available if you are using the
download version of the Auction Template Builder
tool on your computer.
If you are using the download version you may
edit this file to contain your Shipping information
so it is ready to copy and paste into your template.
You can
select and delete the text that is in the file now and
replace it with your own information. You may use HTML if you would like. The font type, style and color are pre-defined, but can be changed using the directions in your eBook. Your
Information may be as long as you like, the template will resize to match the length of your information.
For
example, you might want to have something like:
I will
ship outside of the United States but you must pay for
shipping insurance. Beware, the shipping costs are high. I
ship priority only, so if you really want the item, I will
ship it if you are willing to pay priority shipping charges.
Or, you
may want to add line breaks with a <br> tag like this.
I will
ship outside of the United States but you must pay for
shipping insurance.<br>Beware, the shipping costs are
high.<br>I ship priority only, so if you really want
the item, I will ship it if you are willing to pay priority
shipping charges.
So it will
show up in your auction like this:
I will
ship outside of the United States but you must pay for
shipping insurance.
Beware, the shipping costs are high.
I ship priority only, so if you really want the item, I will
ship it if you are willing to pay priority shipping charges.
