Hello lovely people!
I saw it’s possible to create many products at once with the quick create option, but this link is nowhere in my store. I’ve searched on the internet, I know where it’s supposed to be located, but it’s simply not there. So I was wondering if I need to reach a certain zrank or publish a certain amount of products in order for it to show up… does anybody have any idea? Anybody with similar issue?
Any insights are highly appreciated!
It’s suspended over the holidays. It will be back in January.

Thank you so much! 
Thank you for sharing!
We’re in January and I still don’t see the link.
I know, and it’s very annoying! Personally, I’m focusing on other platforms where the upload is not so time-consuming… to create one product at a time and then still have to deal with recaptcha after a few uploads is highly frustrating… rather go to other places that are more friendly towards creators…

Greetings!
Is quick create up and running again?
Best to you!
Hey, sorry the delay, haven’t logged in Zazzle for a long time!
Nope, looks like they didn’t bring it back yet… not even sure if they will
Best to you as well

Very annoying. I have a number of designs I’d planned on putting on Zazzle, but I think I shall just have to put them elsewhere. I had a very nice set of OC templates I had set up, but without access to them, it isn’t worth spending so much time to do each product one at a time.
I can’t help but to assume that too many were abusing the privilege of the Quick Create. By this I mean to slap a design to every product without tweaking how it fits and tweaking who the product best suits whom, etc. Myself I only used it to add on products it made sense to and I tweaked every design on products before publishing them for sale and I also tweaked certain descriptions, titles, who it’s best for, etc. And I didn’t put my design on all templates, only those that made sense. I really, really, miss it.
It may take less time to use a method some of us have used all along, which is to create an initial product that you do right to the point of posting for sale, then opening tabs for the other products where you want to use the same design. I usually stop at 10 tabs, though more could be used. From there, a kind of assembly line is used where you copy the original design and paste it on the products in each of the tabs. From there, you run through the tabs to tweak positioning, etc. Same for text templates. When done with that, go back to the initial product, open the post-for-sale page, put in the title, copy and paste it in the other tabs, changing it to suit, and then run through the other items in the initial product, copying and pasting the info. Finally, post all the products for sale. The best part is that there’s no waiting for the products to be reviewed as there is with Quick Create.
The above explanation may make it sound complicated, but in practice, it isn’t.
Hi Donna! For sure when a company removes a benefit, it’s because people were abusing it. Personally I refuse to spend more time uploading than creating a design, so to upload 1 product at a time is definitely a no go to me… here on Zazzle I’m working only with digital downloads, rather focus on other platforms that are more creator friendly…
I never used quick create because when I joined, it was not there anymore… I really appreciate you sharing a practical way to work on several products, hope it helps other people as well… to me another issue is to deal with recaptcha, it can really become a nightmare if you are trying to upload too many products in a day…
Same here, Donna. Since there is no one particular product, or even handful of products, that sells, the only way for me to make money efficiently on this site is to create everything that makes sense for a particular design through QPC. Doing that one product at a time would take hours/days instead of minutes. I can’t grow my business without QPC, so I’ve pretty much stopped creating. I’ve invested an untold number of hours creating those templates, and now they are collecting dust. I do hope they bring it back.
