Guests say they cannot upload

Work through the four things that stop uploads, in order.

  1. Check the event is active — an unpaid event refuses uploads until payment completes.
  2. Check the upload window is still open. The date is on your dashboard, and you can extend it.
  3. Check you have not closed the event, which stops new uploads deliberately.
  4. Check the photo or video allowance is not full. Deleting frees slots.

If none of those apply, ask the guest what the message on screen said — the upload page explains the specific reason it refused a file.
