Unable to Upload images in show me community

Hello Fellow Zazzlers,

I am unable to upload images of my products in the Zazzle Show me Community. what could be the reason for it. It gives an error “You have reached your upload limit of 1,000 images.” I don’t think I have shared 1000 products. Is there a limit ? 

Is this issue continuing for you? I have just tried to post to Show Me and it worked for me. You are not posting images to the forums first and then sharing, are you? You are using hyperlink method? 

Thanks for reply Windy, I download the image of my product from my product page, add it to the post and then add the link of the product. Since Yesterday, i am unable to the upload the product image because of this error. I hope I was able to make it clear. is there any other way I don’t know of? It’s frustrating and pointless to post without images. The issue is still there.

there’s no need to download images to post in the show me forums - you can use the share button to grab the HTML which will show the image when you post the link

1 - Navigate to your product via the store backend (not product page)
2. Find the share button dropdown  and click the link icon. 

  1. Click into the html box which auto highlights the whole code then copy/paste into a forum post (you may have to click the … in the forum post to get to the HTML)

For some reason I get an error saying the HTML will be removed but it never is and post as normal

There’s a testing board if you want to practice https://community.zazzle.com/t5/testing-board/bd-p/testing

Thanks a ton. It’s working for me now. Just a little more support if you could. How do you add multiple products in a single post? Appreciate your support.

@colorblends  Happy you figured it out!

That’s a really good question! I am a big believer in “a picture is a worth a thousand words” so have uploaded a ton of images to the forums. Checking, I see I am past the half-way mark if there is indeed a limit of 1,000 so very interested in an official answer to this question.

The default limit is 1,000 image uploads. I can increase the limit if necessary, but usually these defaults are set this way for a reason. @ColsCreations  if you get close to 1,000 image uploads in your posts I’ll lift the limit.

As far as sharing products/collections in the forums, I’d highly encourage everyone to use the HTML sharing tools that we offer on our website. That’s the best way to share products on these forums.

From what I have observed, I’d guess the HTML to center the product name to be the bit that is removed.

I know this is super old thread, but I reached the limit a month or so ago and now for every image/screenshot I want to add to a post I need to go in to my forum image gallery and randomly delete one. Is the offer to up the limit still good? I’d hate to just go in and blindly delete a whole bunch of images as I still often get Kudos on very old posts which tells me people are still searching things up and finding it helpful. Thanks!
