Transfer problems - stickers

Is anyone else having problems transferring their designs to stickers?  Any old stickers.  I type in "sticker" or "stickers" and I get the error message that "nothing to see here..."  This has been going on for a long time.

I believe the print process is different for stickers than for many other products.  When the print process is different, the transfer function doesn't work. 

You can open both the design you'd like to transfer and an undesigned sticker in different tabs/windows and copy/paste the design from one design tool to the other, then tweak as needed.

Hmm, but the Paste function doesn't always work when you do this, for some reason. It's usually greyed out. Irritating... but thanks for alerting me to the fact that you can't transfer a design to a sticker. I didn't know that.

I've found that if the paste function doesn't work.... add a background color and then try again.  It usually works after that... then just remove the backgound color....

I will try this. I have added text before now and that has worked, but not always. Thanks for the tip.

This also happens with rubber stamps. Designs can't be transferred. PacifierCity is right with his solution. You'll also need to copy and paste the product title, description, and tags, if the design is similar. You can always make changes, but it will save a lot of work.

Thanks for the tip, Nigel!
And I just had to take a look at which Scottish island you're on... lovely place. I'm on Anglesey 😊
