P: Why Did My Lightroom Community Post Disappear?

Hello,

 

I recently uploaded a photo to the Lightroom Community and shared it publicly. However, I noticed that the post has now disappeared from my profile. I did not delete it myself.

 

Can someone please explain why this happened? Was it removed for a specific reason, or is this a technical issue?

 

Thank you for your help.

Hey, @Valentino MC. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll clarify this for you. 

What is your username for the community? I couldn't find your profile with the username you've used here.

 

The Lightroom Community is moderated based on the guidelines shared here: https://lightroom.adobe.com/lightroom-community-guidelines

If you're sure none of these guidelines are breached, you can try posting the image again and share your profile with us to review it further. 

 

Let us know how it goes. Thanks!

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
We looked into this situation and see that your images were mistakenly miscategorized. 
We are working on correcting what happened and we hope that you will continue to post to the Lightroom community. 
Best Regards,

Today I tried sharing 3 separate photos. Each one was removed and I received emails saying that they violated community guidelines. I disputed all of them and two were put back. As of right now I am waiting to see what happens with the third. But here's the thing. None of them violated any of the community guidelines. There was no reason for this to happen. I never received any explanation for why any of this happened. Just another email and poof, there were my photos again, as if nothing had happened. As a result of this nonsense, I removed all of my photos and will be shopping around for new editing software for my photography. I have been paying for a subscription to the photography plan for years and love Lightroom, but this has gone beyond ridiculous. I'm done.

My name is Valentino MC in the Lightroom Community

 

I recently uploaded a photo to share publicly, but I noticed something unusual. After posting, my image disappears from my profile within about one minute. Then, after a while, it shows up again, only to disappear later.

 

At first, I thought I may have violated a community guideline, but I haven’t received any moderation notice or warning. Given this pattern of disappearing and reappearing, I believe this may be a bug or a syncing issue.

 

Could you please check if there’s a problem with my account or with the Lightroom Community platform?

 

Thank you for your help,

Valentino MC
