# Delist a listing, and automatic delisting

How to delist a listing from RUIT and what each marketplace does, when RUIT delists them at zero stock and what happens if you delete one on the marketplace.

_Updated: 2026-10-01 · Source: https://ruit.es/en/docs/delist-a-listing/_

Delisting a listing takes it off the marketplace. You can do it yourself from RUIT, and RUIT does
it for you when a product runs out of stock, so that nobody buys a unit you no longer have. This
guide explains both ways and what happens if you delete a listing directly on the marketplace.

## Delisting a listing from Publications

1. Go to **Inventory → Publications**. If you see cards, switch to the table.
2. On the listing's row, open the dropdown in the **Status** column and choose **Delist**, the last
   option, in red. On a phone, swipe the table sideways to reach that column.
3. Confirm with **Delist**. The **Delist publication** window reminds you that the listing is
   removed from the marketplace and that its data stays in RUIT.

**Delist** appears in the status dropdown of **In Sale** and **Reserved** listings. To delist a
listing in another status, use the bulk action or the product page.

### Several at once

Tick the rows, press **Bulk actions → Delist** and confirm. On a phone, **Bulk actions** is the
button with the layers icon. It works for any listing that is
neither sold nor deleted.

## Delisting a listing from the product page

On the product page, each listing has its card under **Publications**.

1. Open the card's **⋮** menu and choose **Delete publication**.
2. Confirm with **Delete**.

It appears on any listing that is not already deleted. To remove all of the product's listings at
once, press **Delete all**, to the right of the **Publications** heading, and confirm.

## What happens on each marketplace

**Delist** and **Delete publication** do the same thing on the marketplace; only the place you use
them from changes.

| Marketplace | What happens to the listing |
| --- | --- |
| Wallapop | It is deleted |
| Vinted | It is deleted |
| eBay | It is ended: it stops being for sale, but its history stays visible on eBay |
| Todocolección | It is deleted |
| IberLibro | It is deleted |
| WooCommerce | The product is deleted from your store |
| PrestaShop | The product is deleted from your store |

> **Warning:** On WooCommerce and PrestaShop, the listing is your store's product: delisting it deletes it from
> the store, it does not just hide it. If you only want to stop selling it for a while, change it in
> your store.

On Wallapop and Vinted, delisting goes through the extension, which has to be
[connected](https://ruit.es/en/docs/check-the-extension-connection/).

In RUIT, the listing does not disappear: it stays in **Publications** with the **Deleted** status.
If it was no longer on the marketplace, RUIT marks it as **Deleted** all the same.

> **Note:** Delisting a listing from RUIT only removes that listing. The product's other listings stay live,
> and the product's stock does not change.

## Automatic delisting when you sell

When a product's stock reaches 0, RUIT delists its listings or leaves them with no quantity,
depending on what each marketplace allows. It does not matter how it reaches 0: through a sale RUIT
detects, one you record yourself or because you lower the stock.

| Marketplace | What happens to the listing |
| --- | --- |
| Wallapop, PRO accounts included | It is deleted |
| Vinted | It is deleted |
| eBay | It is ended |
| IberLibro | It is deleted |
| Shopify | It is archived: it stops showing in your store, but you can recover it. In RUIT it becomes **Inactive** |
| WooCommerce | It stays published, with the quantity at 0 |
| PrestaShop | It stays published, with the quantity at 0 |
| Todocolección | It is taken off sale, and comes back when you restock |

Each time it delists one, you get the **Publications Auto-Delisted** notification, which says on
which marketplaces.

### The switch

Automatic delisting is on by default. It is controlled by the **Enable automatic delist** switch,
in **Settings → Automations & AI → Sync & delist**, inside the **Delist** card. There is only one,
and it applies to all your marketplaces.

_Screenshot: Settings → Sync & delist: the Sync card with each marketplace's frequency, Every hour or Real-time, and the Delist card with Enable automatic delist switched on_

In the **Delist** card (1), **Enable automatic delist** comes switched on.

If you switch it off, RUIT stops delisting listings when a product runs out of stock, and those
listings stay live. What it does keep doing is lowering the product's stock with each sale and,
when you delete a listing on Wallapop, Vinted, Todocolección or PrestaShop, delisting the
product's other listings, as explained next.

## If you delete the listing on the marketplace

On **Wallapop**, **Vinted**, **Todocolección** and **PrestaShop**, RUIT finds out during the sync.
So as not to mistake a temporary failure for a deletion, it waits until two syncs in a row cannot
find the listing. Then:

- it marks that listing as **Deleted**;
- it delists the product's other live listings, even if you have automatic delisting switched off;
- and, if it has delisted any, it lets you know with **Publications Auto-Delisted**.

The sync runs every hour, unless you change that marketplace's frequency in the **Sync** card on
the same screen. If RUIT does not manage to delist a listing, it keeps retrying for 48 hours. If it
still cannot, it warns you with **Listings Still Live**: you have to delist that one yourself.

> **Warning:** Delisting in RUIT and deleting on the marketplace are not the same. Delisting in RUIT only removes
> that listing. Deleting it on Wallapop, Vinted, Todocolección or PrestaShop ends up delisting the
> product's other listings too.

On the other marketplaces it is different:

- **WooCommerce and Shopify**: your store notifies RUIT straight away. The listing becomes
  **Deleted** and you get the **Product Deleted** notification, or **Products Deleted** on Shopify.
- **eBay**: a listing you end on eBay is not deleted. During the sync, RUIT marks it as
  **Inactive**, or as **Sold** if it sold at least one unit.
- **IberLibro**: RUIT cannot read your IberLibro listings, so it does not find out if you delete one
  there.

### If an account's listings disappear all at once

If almost all the listings of an account disappear at once, for example because the marketplace has
restricted or closed it, RUIT does not delist anything on the other marketplaces. It puts the
deletion on hold and warns you with **Inventory Not Visible**.

1. Press **Review account** in the notification.
2. On the account's card, press **Review**.
3. Choose **Yes, delete elsewhere too** if you deleted them yourself and want them gone everywhere,
   or **Wait** if it is something temporary: nothing is deleted, and everything carries on by
   itself when the account becomes visible again.
