Pinterest Error- Pinning Directly from Zazzle

Trying to share products directly from Zazzle "share to Pinterest" button. Yesterday none of the items could be pinned. Today I was able to share a couple but still getting error on others. It looks like this is a problem posted about before. Screenshot for reference

I realize that there are at least a couple of other threads on this topic but thought that - perhaps - because a "solution" has been identified for those, the recurring/new problems are not being brought to the attention of the forum monitors/overseers. It now has been over a week that posts cannot be made to Pinterest. This applies to all products, store wide. Please advise.

I'm wondering if perhaps this has something to do with the new "Ambassador Program" that will be launched next week with the new terms of service. It occurs to me that they might be working on updating the sharing system so that it places clean links for your own products and rf links for products created by others in accordance with the new program - which might explain why it's been misbehaving recently. I'm hoping that's what's up because it would be super helpful if we didn't have to edit links by hand in order to place the correct type.

I'm not aware of the new program. Could you share the most important updates? Thanks!

The Ambassador Program is listed in the new terms agreement, it's important that you read thru the whole thing:
<https://community.zazzle.com/t5/creator-news/upcoming-changes-to-zazzle-s-terms-of-use/ba-p/194745>
Also, you should have gotten an email from Zazzle about the new terms agreement.
There are many, many posts about the program, and questions about royalties. To really understand, best  that you read thru the forum, you can do a search with keywords, ambassador program. We are all up to our necks with this change.

How do you get an Ambassador referral link. Will all my old referrals still work?   Thanks

  Yes that is probably what is going on thank you so much I feel better with a reason for this. I am wondering will my original referral link work or will I have to re-do it.   Thanks again for giving me a good reason why this Pinterest issue is going on. 🙂

I hope so. I think the least they could do is give some sort of explanation since this same thing occurred a couple of weeks ago and was fixed. My pins from any other sites are fine. Zazzle is my side gig that I put a lot of time in to and generally pin my products as I make them.

Today I tried pinning to Pinterest from Zazzle & like the other week getting an error message. Is Zazzle updating or something? as this is the 2nd time in a span of 2 weeks for this issue.

I am having that too.  It worked for a few days but it back to not being to post.  I tried from the product it's self and from the list of products, neither will work.

Having the same issues.

Hi, after an entire day of being able to link Z products to Pinterest the problem is back, I tried on two browsers. Tried to add Z pins from my web site 
--- Visit Leatherwood Design  ---

Tried to pin Amazon items from my web site and they work and pin with no problem. Help needed again,

It is still not working for me. I'm getting this message on the screen "Sorry, something went wrong. Please make sure the URL is correct and try again."

Hi,

Can someone in the tech department look into the fact that the Pinterest button is not working.  This has been going on for about a month now and affecting my business. Can we get it fixed, please?

Thanks

This has been broken for the last two weeks, and it doesn't seem like Zazzle's going to fix it.

Hello, Everyone! I am having trouble with using my Pinterest button. Just like the Designers on this post, I am unable to share my work.

It got fixed and was working for a couple of days and now not working again... I do hope this gets fixed super frustrating as very slow pinning the old fashioned way.

I also haven’t been able to pin properly for weeks - from Zazzle or manually. Can someone from Zazzle’s tech team please confirm if/when this will be fixed?

I use Edge for my browser and have the Save to Pinterest browser extension installed.   From that, I can save a pin to my Pinterest board by hovering over the product image.   A small red button will appear and you can select the drop-down menu and choose which board you want to save to.   It might be worth installing the browser extension for anyone having trouble pinning using Zazzle's share button.

Thank you. I'll give this a try.  Hopefully Zazzle fixes the problem.  As of today, I still can't pin.

I'm still only able to pin by making manual pins, which is very time consuming. Is a fix being worked on?

I opened a new page and used Pinterest extension on my drop down just messing around and tries posting the referral update banner and I just posted to the first board and it worked.  So I tried every which way to post items and is it not working. Only the stupid banner posted. I even went as far as uninstalling the last three windows updates. STILL NOT WORKING.  Pinterest does not know what the problem is.   Come on Zazzle

I’ve been having the same issue for a few weeks now, I can post from my phone onto Pinterest though. So until this is fixed that’s what I’ve been doing. It doesn’t always go through but if you keep with trying it will happen.
