Problems for new creator

Hi. I've started creating products. They show up in "products" and my featured item shows up in "featured" but my store is empty. Is this because I need 10 items before any of my items show up at all on Zazzle? 

Speaking of "featured" how many items can I "feature" and does this affect my royalty?

Here is a link to my featured item. It's in the adult category apparently because of a certain commonly used word LOL. Also some may think it's controversial, but I see other controversial items on Zazzle so I hope that's not the problem with this one.

@dave2019Everything at Zazzle takes time.  When you publish a product you should get a message that it will take 24hrs to be seen in the marketplace.  This is because the product needs to be indexed.  Everything here needs to be indexed.  So even simple things like moving a product from one category to another will take time to take effect.  Sometimes indexing occurs real fast... less that a day... sometimes it takes much longer than a day... up to a week and rarely longer...

You can have as many items in your featured section as you would like... it will not affect your royalty.  Although I am not 100% sure the featured section is working properly on the site right now...

I can see the tee that you have designed.  But I only see 1 item.  Not sure if you have created more...

Thanks. Of course I'm impatient, my products are very timely! But I will calm down and be patient. I've added more products and I just got an email that some will be available soon. 😀
