Hello @SimplyBllisss welcome to the Local Guides Connect community!
All posts, that is reviews, photos and videos are checked by an AI filter not only for obeying the rules, but also for suspected SPAM and false information. If the filter rejects any phrases of text or the content of media, it will not be published (“hidden” or “private”).
If one or more photos or videos are attached to your review, the entire review will be hidden if only one of them is rejected.
Therefore, if photos are attached to one of your hidden reviews, as a first try, you should remove the photo(s) and see, if text-only is accepted (even, if it was accepted longer time ago).
Upload pending, is yet a different story. In that case, it might be temporary glitch, but if that continues for more than a day, I’d also try to remove all attached photos and re-attach, but one at a time and wait until it gets published.
The approval process for videos can take several hours or even a day, while photo are usually accepted within a minute, unless the filter rejects one.
For more information, I suggest reading the series of articles written by @MortenCopenhagen a while ago: How to Get In and Out of Trouble: The Main post
Hope, this helps for now. Feel free to ask questions.
