Can you gift a pattern that isn't released yet?

@Ribblr I just scheduled a pattern for release after being tested. It will be released Monday. The pattern was a custom pattern that someone else requested, so I wanted to gift it to them ahead of time.
I tapped ā€œgift a patternā€ and put the person’s username in. Ribblr said it was sent. But the person never recieved it. What did I do wrong? Can you not gift a pattern before its official release?

You can gift unreleased patterns so it should have worked. Maybe re-send it and make sure you spelt their username correctly and with an @ symbol in front of their username?

I did already :slightly_frowning_face: I’m not sure what I did wrong. I guess I’ll try again.

If the person changed their username recently that could be messing it up

sometimes people have letters in there name that look alike, for example, l can look like capital I (i) or sometimes people use numbers, maybe check that!

Like dania said as well as spelling and did you put the @ infront?

Yeah, I did both, and they haven’t changed their screen name recently. I am just at a loss here.

I put the @ symbol! (Trust me, it works, I’ve probably done it …… 20 times for unreleased patterns :rofl:, you just need to make sure the user is spelled correctly!)

You can gift a pattern which isn’t published yet. The user should see the gifted pattern in their pattern library. Please reach out to us privately if you need additional help.
