Not sure @EileensCraftStudio I haven’t been on google+ for a while.
I don’t even have an account there YET. Hope you’re able to use it later Eileen. x @EileensCraftStudio
Thanks Kelly I’m going to try using my other browser see if that helps. Watch this space
ugg still not working properly.
I can put the link then take a photo from my photo’s on my laptop but I rather it worked the way it’s always worked.
I wonder if it works for anyone else? Maybe someone in the community could give a try and let you know? x @EileensCraftStudio
That’s so strange @EileensCraftStudio !
I heard they were making changes to photos, but I thought that was happening next month…? Even so, I didn’t think this would affect posting URLs. Is it a link to your shop?
It’s the link to the item in my shop. We post items not the whole shop
@EileensCraftStudio I’m about to go into a meeting for the next couple of hours but if you’d like me to take a look after that, I can try and figure out what’s happening and whether or not it’s a weird one-off glitch or whether Google+ has changed something…
Thank you
Here’s a link to the newest folksy community board on Google+ and you’ll see what I mean
I see what you mean @EileensCraftStudio – there’s a difference between how the posts were appearing a week ago compared to today!
I think it’s a technical issue in how Google+ is getting the snippets from the page – this is a great question for Folksy technical support (@sianfolksy). Maybe they could figure out whether it’s from the Google+ end, Folksy end or a combination of both.
In the meantime, I’d just go with the workaround you used earlier today.
I had a look and I can see you posted a item yesterday and I can see a picture for it of a patchwork pin cushion. I also found a post from a few minutes before of the same cushion I think but without the picture.
yep that’s right the picture will not show if I only use the url link from my shop anymore. So I’ve had to add a photo off my laptop rather than straight from my shop.
Normally you just post the url of your item in your shop and the photo from your shop comes up this is not happening at the moment.
