Cannot pin sets to pinterest. Other users cannot pin my sets either. https://urstyle.fashion/user/suzanne-perry

Apparently, Pinterest has blocked URSTYLE links. I've emailed a Product Quality specialist from Pinterest Support to try to get this problem fixed. I'm still waiting to hear back from her.

@kated they did that to Polyvore too. It’s probably due to copyrights & other intellectual property rights, just to avoid infringements. DeviantArt also blocked both Polyvore & URSTYLE clipper tools and links for the same reason.

So how do we promote our urstyle sets?

@syl-cameojewels I haven't made any new sets in a long time, but I've been featured in a couple of sets since Pinterest blocked URSTYLE. I just promoted them on Twitter and Tumblr using downloaded images of the sets. Here are links to my tweets promoting those two sets: https://twitter.com/kmdvl06/status/1253031981903994882 https://twitter.com/kmdvl06/status/1253398562454605825

@syl-cameojewels You can also right click on the set and "save image as" to your computer then go to Pinterest and in the upper right hand corner click on the + sign to create a pin, then click on the up arrow and choose your saved set picture and then pick the board you want it published to. Sounds complicated, but easy once you get a rhythm
going! -
@cindu12 I tried that, but it only saves a photo of the set to Pinterest, not a link to the set or any of the items featured in it. That might work well for product-free art sets. But people like Suzanne, Syl, and me make sets mainly to promote Etsy products. How can potential customers access those sets and products without links?
-
@kated Hmmm, you might try ebedding a link within your Pin or Pinterest now has a way to promote your pins. Not sure how it all works, but that may be an option...?
-
@cindu12 Thanks for your suggestion, but unfortunately, it's not going to work. Pinterest has blocked all URSTYLE links and won't unblock them. If I try to embed or copy and paste a URSTYLE link in a pin, Pinterest rejects it.

I guess I spoke too soon. Either that or my complaints finally reached the right person. I can once again pin URSTYLE sets and items -- hallelujah! Is everyone else's Pinterest in sync with URSTYLE again, too?
