Postcards are Discontinued?

Okay, I saw that it is semi-gloss.  I just made postcards a few days ago.  I never choose semi-gloss.  I always choose the first option that comes up which is matte.  Does it automatically change to semi-gloss without us knowing?  Now, I have to re-do all those postcards.  

What is going on?

Semi Gloss is being renamed "Basic Semi Gloss" - all paper products are going through the rename and most being auto set to Signature Matte 

Go through your postcards and check to update them to your chosen paper type

You don't have to "redo" anything (or recreate) - just make sure your postcards are set how you like

Edit details - product merchandising - change options - choose either Basic Semi Gloss or Signature Matte - the choice is yours

Thank you.  I very much appreciate your response.

I never choose anything but matte.  In my recent postcards that I put on the marketplace, by chance, I saw that it was basic semi-gloss or whatever it's called now.  It was changed from matte (which I originally chose) to basic semi-gloss without me doing it.  That's what really surprised me.

When I create more postcards, I'm going to look at them on the marketplace and make sure they are matte.  Thanks a bunch for showing me a better way to change it - just go to edit details.  Yesterday, I went a different route (not re-creating them), and it was laborious.  Edit details is much easier.
