Photos and reviews not posting public after edit my old review

Thank you for your confidence and tagging me (although I am not a moderator :grinning_face: ) @ShreyaMusings, I try to give @Wintask some tips:

All our posts to Google maps, that is the text of the reviews and the contents of photos and videos are checked by an AI filter. Not only to ensure all rules are obeyed, but also to avoid SPAM and false information. If photos or videos are attached to an review and only one of them is rejected, the entire review including all other attached media are not published (“hidden” or “made private”).

For more information, I suggest reading this series of articles by @MortenCopenhagen: How to Get In and Out of Trouble: The Main post as well as An update on how we moderate Google Maps reviews

Regarding:

Is this review still public? Can you share with us a link to it? The photos which are not possible to be published, are they attached to this or other reviews? Do you see your photos under My ContributionsPhotos?

In addition, you should provide some more information (as I already have told you a while ago):

  • What are you using, a desktop browser or the Google Maps app on a mobile device?
  • If the latter, under Android or iOS and which version of the app are you using?
  • What are the steps you perform to attempt posting a review or photo?
  • What exactly happens, so you can say “I’m not able to post”?
  • You don’t find the appropriate button or you can post it, but it doesn’t publish or do you receive an error message?

Hope, this helps for now. Let us know, if you have questions.
