Troubleshooting

What to do when something does not work — with the cause, not just the trick. Every article here names what actually went wrong, because the same symptom has several causes and the wrong fix wastes the evening.

Most of it falls into 3 groups. A file that was refused at the door, a file that arrived and is not visible yet, and a guest who cannot get in at all. Which group you are in decides everything that follows.

A useful habit before you start: check what a guest sees, on a phone that is not yours. Signed in, you see the owner view, and the owner view is not where the problem is.

If you are in a hurry at the party itself, the fastest fix for almost anything is sending the album link to the group chat. It reaches the same page and needs no camera.
