All Pinterest links are gone

Not sure if this has to do with the change in link formats for the new site rollouts, or the ongoing Pinterest issues, however product pins no longer have a link available to get to the Zazzle site. This is for both new and older pins. Are we going to have to redo everything with the change in link formatting or will old format links still grant affiliate sale commissions?

A number of pins are also being replaced with the Zazzle verified account as the author as opposed to the account making the pin (including if you use your own cover image) but there is still no site link

I imagine there will be more detailed info coming out, however i would have hoped it would have been info and then changes vs changes and then info

For now, my pins are working, and my links on Benable are too.

Pinterest is doing a rolling test where the link is not as obvious or missing on pins. I've been through this test twice and it's not fun. If you want we can look at one of the pins as if we are a customer. Sometimes there are different views from those that made the pin and those not logged into your account.

i have no links on any of the pins i checked. i have no idea what's happening

Same here - the correct title text is still there, but they're no longer linked/clickable.  this is happening on both pins I added today, and attempting to click on previous/older pins  @Scott, any updates on Pinterest issues?  It seems like it might be related to the new Ambassador program...

FYI, I've lost over 25k views in the past 10 days with all the Pinterest issues.

the 'visit' site' options have returned now for me
