Pinterest doesn't work

[michelepixels]

So I finally figured out how to get Pinterest to accept my pins and have them show up in a search for #tlplod. I created a new gallery and add my layouts to it directly rather than using the pinning button in our TLP gallery.
This is my pinterest LOD gallery:
https://www.pinterest.com/michelepixels/the-lilypad-love-our-designers-2019/

The problem is when I went to upload my Kim Jensen page just now I noticed my Rachel Jefferies page I made and uploaded yesterday wasn't there. So I uploaded it again, even though I know I had yesterday. And more stupidly weirdly, when I look at my home page https://www.pinterest.com/michelepixels/ I CAN see my Kim and Rachel pages. They just aren't appearing in the actual gallery. No matter how many times I reload (including leaving, waiting, and returning a while later). I've looked for a way to tell it how many pins to show, thinking maybe I'd hit a limit with 16, but there don't seem to be any kind of gallery settings. I looked in the Help section, searching for "why don't my latest pins appear" and that was useless. It even gave me an article about when pins you don't want appear, but not anything related to my problem.

Anybody have a clue?

Here are my Rachel Jefferies and Kim Jensen pages in case you want to go check if you can see them.


I'm mostly just ranting. I don't really care about Pinterest, especially now that I'm finding it's not user friendly, or maybe just doesn't like iMac/Safari. I just wanted to fully participate in TLPLOD.

Michele I see both pages when I search #TLPLOD and lots of other pages of you ...

 

[marijke]

I can't pin my pages from the TLP gallery ... I always upload them with the '+' new pin in Pinterest ...

I use chrome with a pinterest add on and it shows a button on each image that I can share to pinterest. Click on these to see what it looks like... super easy. Sometimes a bit annoying with the button itself but worth it for posting. You can enable the extension or disable it when you don't need it.

I had problems with pinterest when uploading from my telephone and directly from the gallery.
I had to do like @marijke said so I could see my pages when I was searching the hashtag.

I had issues too...but it worked. I uploaded directly from the site, rather than trying to upload from my device to Pinterest. At first, my photos were “blank.”

Not surprised that some of us are still having issues with Pinterest. I think I have it mastered. I can see my 17 pins on my board. The question for me is "can anyone see them and perhaps more importantly can any from the store executives?" I can't seem to find whether The Lilypad is "following me" I would love to have it clarified that I have done things correctly. Thanks for your help. My board is #TLPLOD nanscrapper

I can't find you either... I looked for your board... it does not show up... Is your board public or hidden? Check your settings!
I can't even find your account when I search your name... Does your account have another name? Searched for nanscrapper (and nanascrapper) but found nothing!

Please , can someone see if they can see my board... either: amprincess1981 or Anne-Marie Richardson

Anne -Marie, I can find you when I search for Anne-Marie Richardson (not when I search for amprincess1981)
Your LO's show up when I search for #TLPLOD!

@Bagheertje Thankyou for checking that for me. I am not very good at using Pinterest and other social media.

I just went and looked...What a mess! I used their recommended browser, put in search for #TLPLOD scrolled through it all and did not see your postings... The one with the lake should have jumped right off the page at me... and there was so many other things having nothing to do with our hashtag... some over a year old... I like more organization than what I saw...

 

[nanascrapper]

I can't find you ...

I seem to be under #TLPLOD nanscrapper. Fingers crossed. Thanks for looking!

Thank you so much for your patience. I know you have looked for me on several occassions. I seem to be under #TLPLOD nanscrapper. I did not put in nanascrapper when I opened up my pinterest board. I made a mistake and put nanscrapper instead of nanascrapper and because I am having so many issues with this pinterest I am not going to change it at the moment. I hope I can extend your patience and ask if you would please check again when you have some time under #TLPLOD nanscrapper. Thanks once more.

I DID look for #TLPLOD nanscrapper, I even did copy/paste the name in the Pinterest searchfield (to make sure I did not make a typo...) but nothing shows. Are you sure the board is public? Can you post a link to your board? Or to your account?

I am on a Mac with MojaveOS and using Safari. https://www.pinterest.com/cookingmylife/scrapbook-pages-i-made/
This is a mixed gallery but you can see the TLP ones when you hover over a layout. I could pull the TLP ones into another gallery but...when I get round to it I'm not sure. My gal

If I use the red pin button near my layout in the Gallery, it takes me to my own Pinterest board and puts the layout in the board I select. I did this just now with this layout. (now deleted)

It works perfectly but it's not always the way I want my images out in public so I don't usually put my PL pages there.

If I use the Pin button I have on my computer, it seems to work the same way, but I only get that little blue ? meaning the link to the image is not working. I don't know why. AND how do you add the hashtag and where? @michelepixels

I don't think I ever put my MOC pages up but I will. I know there are days when Pinterest is overloaded and hitting refresh on your computer helps a lot. hth!

Hi. As far as I can tell my board is public. Here is my link. https://www.pinterest.com.au/kaybroom50/

I found you with the link!
When I put your name kaybroom50 in the searchfield I do NOT find you.. I only found you through your link! Your LO's do not show up when I click the hashtag.
It seems like your account and your board are not public!That is why we can only find it through your link!
To find out about your account and board click on the pencil at the top of your account and at top of your board.
This is what I have for my account (it is in Dutch) I think that if that button above the red line is moved to the right your account is private (mine is public)

This is what I have for my board, if the button above the red line is moved to the right, your board is hidden (or private) and can only be found through a link. You can find more information when you follow the link above the arrow (but of course on your board, this snippet is not clickable) and for me it is in Dutch.

Oh you are wonderful to spend soooo much time helping me. I have checked all that and I have neither of those switches on so I can't understand what is going on. I am completely over this. I will have to surrender! If this counts me out of further competitions...so be it!!! Once again my sincere thanks for helping me out. You have been so patient.
