This is beyond frustrating.
After reading through the big "my items aren't appearing" thread, I deleted my items. Things on the main dashboard were interfering with things on the online control panel and vise versa. I couldn't figure out what was what so I deleted it all.
- Even though I will be selling mostly online only...I switched my shipping/mobile/PO box to a "physical location".
- I added the same categories from the square dashboard and square online control panel.
- It's possible the color options/inventory weren't able to transfer to online inventory & prevented items from showing/syncing in the online inventory.
- It's possible the HTML tags weren't able to transfer to the online listings & prevented items from showing/syncing in the online inventory.
- After deleting all these, I created a new item, via the main square dashboard. Minimal description and no color options.
- Then I refreshed my dashboard and my square online control panel.
- The new items appeared.
- I was able to add color options via the online CP.
- I was able to add inventory stock via the online CP.
Apparently, there are site-breaking conflicts between items/descriptions/locations on the main dashboard and items/descriptions/locations on the online control panel. Even with sync on & the same info on both.
