Variation mode for listings

Can anyone assist with variations, I'm selling for the first time bulk items for either clothing, different sizes, phone cases with different models.

I cannot get variations to appear on my listing page, I have viewed videos, read topics and nothing I do adds the variation to the listing. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

I don't think " variations" are available on private accounts... I could be wrong, but aren't  these "selling tools"  usually for business accounts?

Edit to add, sellers handle, as forgot to press the reply button.

You need to be listing on desk top not the app for variations on a listing, also private sellers can have variation listings

Did you managed to find out? I've been trying to work this out for an hour or so, again videos, links help topics etc, nothing is working. 

There are is no 3 dot setting option, no clear way to set, and yes the category is definitely a variation category (I've seen similar) . All videos seem to say "go to the 3 dots" there is no 3 dots on the current listing page tool.

Any further details of where to go, when using desktop? I'm using desktop, but I see no clear way to set a variation (no 3 dots anywhere, no setting options of any kind on the listing page / tool). its driving me insane lol. (and yes the category is variation friendly - have seen similar)

cheers

Is there an option "Switch to business tool" at the top. I don't see variations on mine but do see this option. So I guess clicking it will unlock extra tools like variations.

I have just checked on mine - using a  desktop and for a " variation" listing... there is no button or section for " variations" and I am a private seller. I do not think I have ever had it - multi listing tool only but then again I have had no need to use it. Sorry unable to help more.

I do see that, but I am unsure if then that makes my account switch to a business account. It's very unclear / oversimplified

No worries 🙂 Yeah, i tried to work it out for over an hour and just gave up (listing as separate now lol).

Multi variation listings are no longer available for private sellers.  The option was removed earlier this month along with the ability to offer discounts.

Well that sucks. I don't really need it that much to be fair, but a shame none the less. Thanks for the info 🙂 👍
