Pinterest Titles and Descriptions not Editable

[CherylJones]

Hi. Anyone else having the issue of not being able to edit their own pins' titles and descriptions?  I am new to Pinterest so I'm trying to figure it all out. Also, can anyone tell me what the difference is between Created and Saved Pins? I have to play around with my account to see both ( I don't know how I would have my pins in both categories). Btw, my only pins are from Zazzle, which I have pinned by using the red pin button under the image from my store management pages; I suppose that we can pin to promote from either those pages or the public ones. Thanks Guys!! : )

We are unable to edit our pins If you use the Pinterest share icon from the public product page or from the store management page. If you design your own pins you are able to edit the data.

Thank you. So once the pin is published, Pinterest will no longer show editable fields for the title or descriptions?

[PAZP]

Correct. You can change the Board or Section as seen in this screen shot but nothing else that's public.

Great! I guess I'll have to be a lot more careful from the get go then. : ) Thank you again, Patricia!!

Happy to help.

Pinterest used to be great years ago (just like any other social media) to get traffic. But it's gotten to the point, for me, where it's not even worth the time. Nearly all of my traffic and sells were coming from organic searches. I've gotten rid of my social media platforms which turned out to be a huge time-waster for me. I'm trying to put into practice the 80/20 principle.

Is Pinterest working for everyone else here? Have you looked at where most of your traffic is actually coming from?

Hi, Terri. Thanks for commenting. I'm still confused about Pinterest. For instance, now it looks like two of my Pinterest boards just disappeared. I'm going to give Pinterest a shot and try lots of boards for now with my fairly new Zazzle lgbt store to try and get ready for Pride Month. We'll see what happens! : )
