The thing I don't understand is why they don't let us know they are having problems. Make a damn announcement. I manually add each clip to my store so I can make sure it's shows up on the front page and on the category page. I feel bad for all the people who schedule their clips because they probably have no idea their clips aren't showing up.

I'm getting this too, the front page updates are covering about two hours, there must be tons that are missing.

What the fuck c4s? Morning update today, fine. Update an hour ago, not there. Yes i did mean to type in caps this is fucking ridiculous.

Have messaged them, I'm so pissed off. I can deal with the odd glitch for a day or two but this is taking the piss now.

I had the same issue two nights ago with my new clip taking forever to appear on the recently updated list. I waited an hour and half and never saw my clip appear so I contacted support. This happened at around 11 pm EST.

They replied with --> "yes it's the delay because of the server updates, it needs from 50 to 60 minutes and the clips will appear."

So I replied back with --> "Okay, I will keep checking for the update. Is this just for tonight or will it continue with way for a while?"

Support replied back with --> "Thank you for kind understanding our techs are working on this and should resolved any time soon for the mean time I have flagged and update your store on all servers . Please contact us again if you have any questions, concerns, or require further assistance."

I updated my store again last night and my clip finally appeared on the recently updated list/category after about two hours. I was about to contact them again but saw my clip. I also set clips for future activation early this morning so who knows if they appeared or not. Maybe they did but just very delayed. The good thing is that when I contact support they always reply back within a reasonable amount of time (although sometimes vague with their replies). But I guess if they don't know the exact answer, they can't give an exact time. Hopefully this resolves soon.

It's been very weird. I just had a reply too, saying sometimes it takes 10 - 15 minutes to update (yes, normally it does but not right now!) anyway my clip is now showing and yes probably a couple of hours late. It's all very messed up.

I must admit, I update each day and I don't always check but this last week I've been checking my clips the following morning and they are all in the right place but I don't know when they were added. I don't mind too much about the time, if they get added late that's fine. As long as they do, on the main page AND the category page. It's just very annoying when I keep checking and no sign but others from the same time are on there.

I love C4S but come on guys, WAY too many glitches.

What a horrible start of the month. I just dropped out of top50 in one of my best categories because of this glitch. It's been 2 hours since I added a clip and it still didn't show up in the category or on the main page.

Something else I've been noticing...my Member's hits have been extremely low this month. Hits have been averaging in the mid 200s every day for about a week now when usually it's in the 1000s minimum. And I've been doing the same thing I usually do which is add one or two videos every week to my Member's Area.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Has anybody had any duplicate orders the last couple of days? Both last night and today I've had two people buy the same clip twice, different sales order numbers so it's not just a duplicate sales email. Now perhaps they want to buy the same clip twice but I don't see it myself. Wait now for the refunds :(

I had one last week. Thought it was really weird. I've been waiting for a refund too, but nothing yet.

Yes. I've been going over my sales from the last week and I noticed that this happened a few times. But with the orders it was a first order of 1 clip and then a second order with a different clip PLUS the clip from the 1st order. I know this was a cart issue from before, don't know if it was ever resolved or what.

As far as refunds, the customers are usually first offered another clip from our stores of equal value. Only if the customer doesn't want that option, do they do refunds.

I'm totally blaming Clips4Sale for why my sales are half of what they should be this month. I'm only uploading clips when the uploading works so that means I've only uploaded half of what I should have uploaded this month.

While annoying, I don't feel the updates page refreshing issue has affected my sales. I have a lot of regular customers that go directly to my store to check for updates (and/or check my social media) and they are posting correctly there and within minutes of updating.

Yes I agree. I haven't seen any difference in my sales this month so far. And I've totally slacked the past few days on uploading new clips but thankfully sales have been semi consistent. My hits dropped yesterday although my sales remained good. Better than what I would have expected being I haven't added new stuff in couple days. Filming/uploading new stuff today though definitely.

My hits are lowish but not too low and my sales have tanked over the past few weeks. They were climbing as I was updating more again, getting back to normal and over the last few weeks they've been declining. This month has been atrocious apart from a couple of days. I am trying to figure out why and I'm focusing on marketing, social media, blogging and newsletters which isn't doing much. My content is better than it has been and I'm focusing on my best categories and being creative.

Anyone noticing any glitches? I have some: previews and gifs are disappearing, notably from recently updated clips. And, most disturbingly, I just noticed when I go to my store and select categories from the drop down menu it is showing up as 0 clips. I'm going to keep an eye on this. :/

Wow today is totally dead. Literally I've had three sales and my last sale occurred at 3 am. It's now 5 pm. It might be just my store. Although the good part is that when this happens, it's usually like the calm before the storm. Usually.

And yes the site has been bug free the last couple days so that's cool. Yesterday my sales were awesome. Today is abnormally slow for me. Oh well, we shall see.

The whole month of may and this start of the month have been my worst months....i dont know if is due to the glitches since i cant feature my videos anymore (it will unfeature right after i feature them) or if it is a traffic thing......but for sure were my worst months so far on there. yesterday though i sold a lot and today again slow af. dunno...

I have the same problem, uploaded a clip at 12:04 PM it showed on the main page and category page, but it's 12:42 PM now when I write that and it's still not in my shop. I saw my friend added a clip in the same category at 3AM and it's still not in her store...:( This month is terrible. My hits are really weird, were really slow at the beginning of the month now it all climbed up so they're better than last month but my sales sucks.
And with all of that glitches. Ok let's say they will fix that in an hour. That doesn't make any difference to me because I losted the exposure since in that hour all the new clips in category will push me down, and some of the new clients can never go back when the clicked my store again and again wanting to see the clip from the thumbnail but all they saw was my old clips.

fetishqueen
06-22-2018, 10:42 AM
I've checked a few of the clips recently uploaded and it seems most have got the same issue, I've only found one lucky one that is showing in their store but none of the others are.

Seriously this month has been terrible for glitches, worst ever. :(

I just realized I have the same issue. Uploaded a brand new clip late last night. I went to check on my store before and no new clip! It's in my admin under "List Clips" but not in store for customers to see. I should of made sure that clip showed up last night but I really needed to go to bed. Lesson learned trust no one or no site lol.

Insane. What are they doing?! They need to realize they're losing lots of money this way (so are we obviously).

Anyways, I just messaged support.

Wow literally they got back to me within one minute lol. That's one thing with support (in my experience), they are very good at responding in a super timely manner. Which is great.

Support stated there was a technical problem and my clip will be manually updated in the store and will appear in the storefront within the hour.

I will be uploading another brand new clip today so hopefully it's back to normal.

Checking now the issue is still going on, I've pulled my uploads for later and changed them to tomorrow instead. I rely on everything going up at the same time so I'm not wasting an upload for a clip I've spent hours doing!

Yeah if you rely on everything going up at the same time this situation would be extremely frustrating. Hope it gets resolved soon. I told them I'd be uploading a brand new clip later today and they told me to let them know if I experienced any issues. I'll update here later to let everyone know how it went.

It is frustrating but it is for everybody. I do love C4S with a passion and their CS is very good and fast but my God do they have some issues. If this was my only source of income I think I'd lose the plot fast!

I just messaged them, to save time I put on the message that I can see they are having issues and please can they add my clips manually to my store. Now the response I got was a generic 'tech issues' but my clips are now in my store! So getting there...

How many of you actually seperate your fetish and toilet content? For those of you that don’t, are you happy with your earnings? Do you feel like your toilet stuff affects your fetish stuff? For those of you that do....did you notice higher earnings with your fetish content when you seperated your toilet stuff from it?

I’ve only just opened a store and I like doing the gross stuff but at this stage clip making is just part-time for me as I have a few health issues and can only take so much on board. I feel like having a 2nd store would be quite a bit extra work than just having one store for everything. I update my store once a day and physically, that’s enough for me at this stage and I’m happy with it. If I had 2 stores, that means they would be updated less OR I’d have to make more content. But I don’t want to put the fetish guys off with the toilet stuff.

And also.....do you charge more for your gross stuff? And what categories do you consider 'gross'?

Hello Kody, congrats on your new store opening.

I do a whole combination of fetishes and only have one store. I am very happy with my earnings. I do see many other studios that keep certain types of fetishes separate. It will work differently for everyone. When I first stated a few years ago I did mostly role-play and "non-gross" type fetishes. Then within a few months I began dabbling in the toilet fetish category, which led me to ass sniffing and more gross stuff. I did not notice it affect my sales. On the contrary I feel it introduced me to a wider audience. I'm sure this turned some people off but I don't think too many. Although how would I prove that? You have to do what you enjoy, you can't please everyone all the time. I do take the occasional request from a customer though.

I'm also a natural switch so I do dominant type stuff and submissive stuff. Again, all this is in my one store. I don't charge more for my gross stuff but you can and see how it goes. "Gross" is a matter of opinion. Someone might think all of Clips4Sale is "gross" lol. You know what I mean? Personally it takes a lot to gross me out. I'm sure tons of people have come across my stuff and thought how fucked up and gross I am. But to each their own.

Good luck with your store =)

Yes you're right, she was pregnant the last time she was active on here. I hope she's doing well. It would be cool if she came back. I'm sure her fans miss her too because you could tell she genuinely enjoyed what she did and was good at it.

Hello all! I've lurked in this thread for quite a while and owe many of you thanks. I opened my studio about 7 months ago and owe its relative success to both Sinna and people here. So thank you guys! I had ZERO relevant experience so it was a big learning curve but this thread def helped me.
I will add my tech issue complaint. In addition to the slow posting, I discovered my recent clips are not ordered properly. A few newer ones are pushed off the 1st page of my studio. I've been conversing with support and I do believe they are attempting to help but yeah.
Frustrating to say the least.

I'm sure this has been addressed: But I'm kind of bent about the chargeback forgiveness. I had someone buy a few hundred in clips earlier this year and it got charged back. I then had to send out dmca's because the fuckface decided to post them on a tube site. between that fiasco and terrible health, I haven't put much time or effort into that specific c4s store. while I'm glad for a little $ back, I won't even be able to buy a nice bottle of whiskey for the amount I'm getting back from that specific store (my other two have been chargeback free this year (yay)). I'm just a bit frustrated.

alright, done venting.
