Design/Image Missing on My Existing Products (Display Error)

I don’t know how long that this has been an issue, but in my store’s backend and on the individual product page, the main visual element is missing and/or severely misaligned in 26 of my 107 products.

The designs are showing correctly in the Zazzle design tool, but vanish in the external view.

Because of this display error, potential customers are seeing a blank white product in my store and on the Zazzle marketplace.

Now this is a scary glitch! I hope it gets fixed soon! I just looked and I have products like this too.

Yes, it’s happened to me, too.  This mug is the only one I’ve found so far, but I haven’t done a thorough search, yet.

There is another thread on this topic.

Found the odd one last night

My cure was to go on the product page, go into product media manager, and refresh (sometimes I update the text below the image - sometimes not)

went back to store front - and the image is there.

It’s really random

https://www.zazzle.com/stork_twins_black_and_white_baby_shower_paper_cups-256559338417394905

but once go into media manager - press close, hit refresh (not edited anything)

and it appears ok on the store front

I have tested in a logged out/incognito browser and the image is missing yet as soon I updated - the image returns

It’s as if the first image in the side pod loses it’s connection to it’s zcache but a quick edit or refresh resets it

I have noticed some of the are ones where I’ve updated the design and replaced it (but most are not)

Same here throw blankets,  car mats are just a couple that I have seen. No news from Zazzle about this?

EDIT: I played with personalization on the front end and the cover disappeared again. It seems like it *might* have something to do with if you have a “saved version” of the design that hasn’t been turned into a new product?

I found probably around 7 blanks on the back end of my main store, but only 2 of those were actually missing on the marketplace end a well.

I just clicked into the edit tool, then I exited. This fixed both of the listings. 

Definitely still an issue, though. Many sellers probably don’t know they have this problem happening.

Thank you for flagging, @WHS_Designs . I reported the issue to the team.

A temporary solution for me is the same solution you listed above, Amanda. But it sounds like that doesn’t always work.

The incidences of this error seem to be increasing in my shop, and all over Zazzle. :disappointed_face:

same for my shop.

I have the same problem with several products. As an example, an invitation designed on September 3rd, first viewed yesterday: In my storefront, the design is correct. In the collection and opened in a private window, the preview is blank, but opening the file, everything is in place. So it seems that all the front preview images are actually affected.

I, too, am experiencing this problem.  Several ties and some other products are showing blank on the store front but appear correctly when clicked on to go to its page.  And other products on the store front are showing only partial images but then show correctly when one clicks on the item to go to its own page.  Some however, don’t look correct even at that point.  I first discovered this Sept. 4.  I have made attempts to have it corrected but nothing has changed so far.   I am going to try to add some examples below:

(I have several ties that are blank on storefront but when clicked on, they appear correctly.  For some reason I was unable to make the link to those work here.   However, below are other similar problematic products.

I dont know if this is also related but I am having image problems; editing a design, the template photo is cropped and aligned properly but when I go to preview it, it is off center

I also just read the things about frames vs masks, not sure if that is what is affecting this older design

I have the same problem on many of my products, but I have also pictures very strangely modified with sub parts of my design that have disappeared:  it’s really not a good moment  of the year to do this kind of experimentation ! 

This screenshot is from a collection , the second backpack above is originally like this: 

Same here.

A lot more are missing today. Just completely blank. 

I previously reported some of my links to tech, they sent an email today 9/15 saying they are aware and working on the issue.

Can you check again? If there are still images missing please link me to the page.

@Scott  

it appears as if all the links I posted above are now displaying properly in all areas.

however, these two are blank, and they use a mask. They are two of several (17) beer steins in which I have used a mask of a shape and a photo.
