Simply enter your first list and save it. Then, in your dashboard, click the \u201cActions\u201d dropdown to the right of your list and select \u201cCopy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.teacherlists.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/0221-teacherlists-faq-entering-lists-copy-body.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11136\" width=\"600\" height=\"476\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A pop-up will appear, prompting you to confirm that you\u2019d like to create a copy of your list. Click \u201cOK\u201d to continue.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.teacherlists.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/0221-teacherlists-faq-entering-lists-pop-up-body.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11138\" width=\"600\" height=\"230\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This will create an exact copy of the list so that you can then edit it and save it as a different list. The copied version of the list will be saved with the word \u201cCOPY\u201d at the end of the original supply list name.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.teacherlists.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/0221-teacherlists-faq-entering-lists-copy-list-body.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11137\" width=\"600\" height=\"555\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now you can edit your list and save it with whatever name you\u2019d like.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"Trouble Entering Item\"><\/a><strong>What if I&#8217;m having trouble adding an item?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While adding an item to your list, the system automatically tries to identify the item as you\u2019re typing and offers suggestions. This can save you lots of time!<\/p>\n<p>However, if you don\u2019t see the item you\u2019re looking for even after typing it in completely, it may be listed under a different name (for example, filler paper is also called looseleaf paper)\u2014or if it\u2019s a very specialized item, we may not have it in our database.<\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t see the item you\u2019re looking for in the dropdown list of items to choose from, simply click \u201c+ Add As Entered.\u201d This will enter the item as a \u201ccustom item\u201d and it will display exactly as written.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.teacherlists.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/0221-teacherlists-faq-entering-lists-add-as-entered-body.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11135\" width=\"600\" height=\"227\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"Displayed Lists\"><\/a><strong>How are lists displayed for my school?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lists are automatically arranged by supply lists at the top, ordered lowest grade level first to highest grade level last. Wish lists appear below supply lists, ordered lowest grade level first to highest grade level last. When there are multiple lists associated with the same grade level, lists are placed in alphabetical order by the teacher\u2019s name. This allows parents to find their child\u2019s current supply lists on the run quickly and easily.<\/p>\n<p>School admins have the ability to rearrange the order of lists associated with their school to best meet their needs. If a school admin has rearranged lists, they may not appear in the same order as indicated above.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"Sponsored Items\"><\/a><strong>Why should I add a sponsored item to my list?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Corporate sponsors help to make TeacherLists free for parents and schools to use. The brand sponsors that we choose to work with are carefully screened to ensure that they offer the high-quality products that our schools and parents rely on. Many of these brands are already on thousands of supply lists across the country.<\/p>\n<p>However, schools are never required to choose a sponsored product for their lists. You should always choose the product that makes the most sense for your school and students.<\/p>\n<p>While you are never required to add a sponsored item to your list, we do ask that you consider adding one of our trusted partners to your list. In fact, we frequently run promotions offering incentives for adding sponsored brands to school supply lists. But this is always voluntary and never a requirement to use our free site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adding multiple lists, adding custom items, and other FAQs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11134,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[6],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v19.3 (Yoast SEO v19.13) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>TeacherLists FAQ: Entering School Supply Lists - TeacherLists Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"TeacherLists Account Help: How do I enter school supply lists on the TeacherLists platform?
