Google Posts Not Working

[ForwardMotion]

Anyone else having issues with Google posts? I have been trying to post for clients and every time I go to upload an image it just freezes and won't let me go any further. I have tried with multiple clients now and the same thing happens each time. Just trying to find out if this is a known issue or if it's just happening for me? It was working fine for me yesterday, but not today. I seem to be having multiple issues with Google today. It's not wanting to play nice for some reason.

Likewise having this problem. Can only post text updates. Any photo upload for updates freezes.
However, adding photos to gallery goes through ok.

I have the same problem.

Yes, I'm having a problem posting images with our post. When I go to put the image there the progress line runs and then stops and it just sits there, as if it has not accepted the image. At last check the post is up but I can't seem to get the image up there with the post. Ugh

Yep, we're running into this today as well. I've alerted Google.

Great idea! It worked. I did it from my Droid Phone and it went through perfectly. Thanks for the heads up!

Glad to hear from you Joy. I know you're a resident expert on these things. Lots of funky things happening lately on Google, so unpredictable.

update:
Looks like Its now working.
I was able to post updates with pics on any of our macs, pc and other devices.

It looks to be working now for me too. The ones that were not working for me yesterday all just worked. Glad to know I'm not the only one who was having this issue and it looks to be resolved or at least some work arounds. Thanks for all the feedback!

Lol, assuming Google has ever had QA.

Hi, this started happening again yesterday. And still the same today.

 

[Sherm]

Someone told me, I don't know if its true or not, that Google outsourced a lot of their services in affiliates in India? Is that true? I did get a call from Google Maps, and the guy definitely sounded like he was from that region or tongue. Not that that matters, but interesting if its true that they transferred responsibilities like that. Anyone know for sure????

is that a photo upload or still in the posts? In the image upload, if you interrupt it, you'll find it actually does complete the upload. I dunno about posts, we use the API for that.

It's for Google posts for me. Had the same issues when uploading image posts directly to GBP but worked fine using a third-party tool.
