How to Set Facebook Marketplace to English (US) for Marketplace Assistant

Follow these steps to switch Facebook to English (US), refresh Marketplace, and prepare the interface for Marketplace Assistant.

Marketplace Assistant currently reads the labels and controls used by the English (US) version of Facebook Marketplace. If Facebook is displayed in another language, the extension may not recognize the fields it needs.

Changing the Facebook language does not change the language of your vehicle description. It changes the interface labels that the extension uses during the copying workflow.

Practical checklist

  • Open Facebook Settings & privacy
  • Choose Language and region
  • Set the Facebook language to English (US)
  • Return to Marketplace and refresh the page
  • Open Marketplace Assistant from your Selling page

Why the language setting matters

Facebook can label the same field differently in each language. Marketplace Assistant uses the English (US) interface to find listing details and prepare a new draft reliably. Selecting English (US) gives the extension the interface it currently supports.

What to do if the extension cannot find a listing

First confirm that you are viewing your own Marketplace Selling page and that Facebook is set to English (US). Refresh the page after changing the language, then reopen the extension. Also make sure the listing is active and visible in your account.

Facebook changes its interface periodically. If the expected controls still do not appear, contact Marketplace Assistant support with a description of the page you are viewing. Do not send your Facebook password or other sensitive account information.

Frequently asked questions

Can I write the vehicle description in another language?

Yes. English (US) is required for the Facebook interface the extension reads; you can still review and edit the draft content before publishing.

Do I need to give Marketplace Assistant my Facebook password?

No. The extension works in the Facebook session already open in Chrome.
