Issues with ‘Coming Soon’ Pattern Release Option

Hello!

I’m trying to use the box to mark a pattern for a release date instead of immediate release, but it isn’t responding. I’m on mobile (iPhone) and I use the app, but also tried to go to the website to see if that works any better, but no dice.

I noticed that the screen behind the pop up screen scrolls while trying to access the bubbles and boxes. I can click the other checkboxes for followers only and other options below, just not the release date that I want.

Help!

Hi! Can you share a screenshot or video please so we can better assist you?

Right under the ‘publish now’ I’m unable to click the dot by ‘publish on’ or tap on the box to add a date/time.

Was your pattern published before and did you unpublished it?

It was not published or copied, it was from scratch

I had that issue on a pattern I accidentally published too soon and couldn’t fix it although sounds like that’s not the issue

I’m almost wondering if I did ‘publish’ it before since I was messing around and checking out how the release date worked, but didn’t think I did it with this pattern. But it was never officially published since I pulled the pattern before the countdown ended.

You could always try to do a test publishing with a unfinished pattern (though not sure if your supposed to) to see if it’s just that pattern or all of them

That’s likely to be the case. We disable the use of dropping soon for patterns that were published before, even for just a short period of time

Is there a reason why? Just curious

Sure. It’s because dropping soon only works for patterns that have never been released or published
