Title: everything rejected today
Post by: goober on November 02, 2017, 18:51: Yesterday no rejections. Today everything is rejected for some sort of keyword problem. Might as well stop and come back tomorrow.

Why doesn't SS allow you to fix keywords or titles for rejected images?

So you can't click on a link from the rejected image and amend your titles and keywords, right? You have to re-upload and keyword again.

Post by: Shelma1 on November 05, 2017, 04:50: I always wondered why SS wouldn't let you edit and resubmit images. Their review process is so scattershot that now I automatically upload everything twice there so I have backups uploaded and keyworded just in case. Saves a lot of time and aggravation.

Many times you can just resubmit as is and they'll accept it, because the rejection reason was pure nonsense to meet some rejection quota or something.

I do have keywords in metadata but I was finding some better keyword suggestions inside SS. Also some of my keywords are in UK English and they get flagged as incorrect spelling. You'd think that SS could work that out.

Ignore the incorrect spelling warnings they are meaningless just click submit and they'll go through on the old submission screen

However on the new submission process you have to click each word and select "This is correct"
