Yes, Pinterest worked earlier this afternoon sharing via Zazzle.  Now I keep getting error messages whether clicking Pinterest icon from Zazzle product page (get same message as above), and by clicking Copy Link under a Zazzle product, and then going to Pinterest and clicking plus symbol, pin, globe buttons to paste the link, I get the message, "This site doesn't allow you to save pins.  We recommend trying on other websites."  In August I contacted Pinterest again about this same issue.  They were helpful going back and forth with emails, but the problem did NOT seem to be on their end, and was a Zazzle issue (and it had nothing to do with my Android smartphone, or tablet on my end).  Was glad it eventually started working again but it was like that for quite awhile (and I did not have to clear cache or anything, it just one day was working again on my devices).  Now here we go again with the same thing again.  Hope it gets worked out soon whatever glitch is going on between Zazzle and Pinterest.  Thanks.

I had the same issue today. I tried on my laptop and on my phone, so it wasn’t a browser issue.

not a browser issue it a results from something Zazzle upgraded .this I most common in Q4 every year for what ever reason I don't understand.

Sharing buttons from Zazzle generate the error at Pinterest about the URL is not correct.  I was able to share manually this morning.  The steps for that are too much, especially when i need to share 25 links daily.   I like to promote other creators products to my pin boards, but that is now impossible to do.   I hope this gets fixed since its so close to the holidays. 

I can't share to Pinterest via my Samsung phone or tablet still either way via the Pinterest button or manually.  I get the same messages noted still.

What the heck does that mean / I wonder if Pinterest is categorizing Zazzle as a spam website?   just saying I have no idea why this is happening  

I don't know why it's happening.  But the exact same thing and same messages above, happened in August when trying to pin with the Copy Link via Zazzle (I only tried that way since also could not pin via Pinterest share button for any Zazzle items).  Same as now.  Back then Pinterest tried helping via my emails, but problem did not seem to be on their end.  It was annoying, but then one day I just noticed it started working again and could pin again both ways!  I did not need to clear anything or change anything on my end.  I've been using Opera browser for years, as that's the one we prefer.  I know in August other's wrote here they too had Pinterest sharing problems.  I don't like pinning to Pinterest via the Zazzle Copy Link for items, as it is a pain all those steps!  I prefer using the Pinterest share button by the items, when it works!

Hope it gets fixed soon!

Same happened to me in August, it just started working again, I hope this time will be the same.

EDIT:  Meant to write above with image I posted, that this error message is received after using the Copy Link via Zazzle items to Pinterest.

"This site doesn't allow you to save pins.  We recommend trying on other websites." 

Get this error message from the Pinterest site, after using the Copy Link via Zazzle items pages.

I tried to share from my chrome pin button on my laptop and could not.  I got the warning ..Since this Pinterest URL error code before I wonder if Zazzle had an update that messed up the URL?   not sure...but timing is everything and this close to the holidays its gong to hurt if we can't promote  products.  Hope this get fixed soon .

Yeah me neither, I see it's acting up YET again..UGH!😡

I was fine yesterday pinning to Pinterest, now I too am having the exact same issue!😠

Yep same here. You can still upload a photo and grab a link and pin that way but takes so much more of our valuable time. I do hope this can be fixed quickly as we are heading into peak season?

Same issue here started yesterday and is still happening. I tried posting from my website and any image with zazzle in it does not get used when posting to Pinterest. Amazon images do. Sales are bad enough now this. I still have problems posting to FBook. What did Zazzle do with all these new additions?  They need to get it straight before screwing up a weekend. Help

Hi -- what is the pin it browser extension? Is it unique to Chrome and how would one get access to it?

And I get this other error message from Pinterest, after I click on the Pinterest Share Button from any item on Zazzle!  Had this same error message in the past also.   I've used the Opera browser on Samsoug devices, and PC for years.  

"Sorry! Something went wrong on our end."

Still not working, I finally got used to Facebook not working and now Pinterest follows down the same hole. It is like places don't want Zazzle to post to them anymore. Another weekend messed up. 😞

Until it's fixed we just have to do it the old way (manually) because that still works - I just tested it out (see https://www.pinterest.com/pin/1133922012424259729). It's not as convenient as just pressing a button but on the other hand you can actually take advantage of utilizing the topic tags which must help you on some level. Just trowing that in. I know it's frustrating but it could be worse.

The manual way is not working for us now, it was yesterday but for some reason has stopped ☹️ This is so frustrating!

Yup, that's what I'm doing it the "old fashioned" way, it is time consuming but at least we can get our products up on pinterest that way

Ah I was just coming to see if this was a me issue, a Zazzle issue or a Pinterest issue. Really took the easy of quickly sharing for granted!
I noticed some glitches with Pinterest too this weekend when trying to build my own pins. The interface was being very wonky and I couldn't enlarge images, couldn't put a space in my description. Could be an issue on their end.

Folks, remember Zazzle doesn't work on the weekends. Also, today is a Monday holiday in the US. Perhaps the tech team has this day off as well.

These holidays always come at the most inconvenient times!
