Let's see if I can explain this. And I know it might just be me but...

Before when changing from one shop to another shop it stayed in the same area. For example, I'm in Shop 1 in the products page. Going to Shop 2, I was still in the products page. 

Now, if I'm in the products page, when I go to the next shop it takes me automatically to the homepage of that shop.

I preferred it the old way as I worked in sections updating and verifying stuff in each shop in the same area. The new way creates a new step.

I posted about this awhile ago and it is nice to see someone else feels the same way I do.  Having the ability to change shops and see the same info... ie. last viewed or last sold, was great.  Having to navigate from each home page to see that info is a waste of time. 

I hope that Zazzle will change it back to how it used to work.

@ZBug I know exactly what you mean, and miss it terribly. Among other things that got lost when they changed the back-end set-up.

I think I may have posted about this too.

A Workaround that I have found.

Open Store 1 to correct tab (products, collections ...)
Select the desired SORT (Last viewed/sold/etc)
When ready to check out another store ... DO NOT CHOOSE the store from the drop-down ... instead, replace the storename in the URL.

https://www.zazzle.com/store/bkmuir/products?st=LastSoldDate (change the store name in red)

@BKMuir  Just tried what you suggested, and that indeed works for now, thank you 👍😊

@Zazzle But creators shouldn't need to have create or have to revert to workarounds for functionality that got lost because of an 'UP-grade' that turns out to be more of a 'DOWN-grade'.
