New Pokéstops

Not trying to be funny or anything but I submitted a pokéstop a number of months ago and it was apparently accepted, even though it’s never appeared on the map (and still isn’t there) but next to where I attempted to create a pokéstop, someone has managed to create a random one with gibberish.

I also submitted a new image for a pokéstop nearby this one, it was accepted, but the image has never changed.

I also experienced issues trying to update the name and photos of another pokéstop at the nearby pub, and that was rejected twice (accepted when I made a forum post complaining).

I seriously think that there’s some kind of blacklist on my account or something. Or whatever I do is inherently ‘wrong’ somehow. Since other submissions by other players nearby have had no issues :frowning:

Level 17 s2 cells. Almost certainly the cause.

Gotta vote on images to change the cover photo.

Niantic doesn’t seem to like it when people correct the information associated with an eligible location. They prefer to have out of date info.

Hello @eldhrin
If you could share the name and location of your wayspot that has not appeared we can have a look and check.

I mean voting on images makes sense, however I got an email saying it was accepted but the image has never changed

And I also got an email saying that the one I created was also accepted but never appeared

The one I tried to create was called Cove Woodlands Dolphins, I also submitted the same one earlier today (originally submitted sometime in June)

If you click a stop or gym, then click the arrow at the top right there should be a box at the bottom right that will take you to here

Selecting an image will show you the amount of votes each image has. The picture with the most votes should then become the stop image. There is an old bug that effects I think pre 2019 votes where some votes are hidden.

Unfortunately I can’t post my code or I would happily help you out by voting on images that need updated via gifts you send me.

Going by the Rainbow seat the nearby vicinity has

Rainbow seat and Woodland Dolphins sharing the same cell.

NHS Heroes and Woodland Walk Tree sharing the same cell.

There be dragons and Wizard of the wood sharing the same cell.

This is how Go uses cells to limit the number of stops appearing
