Nothing is being captured, or sales stopped
Check you pressed Start, and that you're still on your own show.
Chrome + iPad
Nothing captured at all
- Did you press Start? Backstage never captures on its own.
- On the Start card, did the Show line name your show?
- Does the panel say JUST TESTING? Then it's a test run and nothing is saved.
- In Chrome, open the show from your seller dashboard, in the same window as the panel.
Sales stopped partway through
- Usually you've raided out, and Whatnot is now showing someone else's show. End your show; start again if you're going back on.
- In Chrome, you can reload the Whatnot tab. Nothing already captured is lost.
- Missed some sales? Use Catch up.
"Backstage lost internet"
In Chrome, a yellow bar across the top of your Whatnot tab means your computer's internet dropped. Your show is still live. Check your Wi-Fi and keep the computer awake. When it's back, a green Back online bar tells you how many sales it caught up. Sales caught up this way don't get a photo.
"A note from Backstage"
Sometimes we send you a short message at the top of the panel or app, headed A note from Backstage. Close it with × once you've read it (an urgent one stays up).
Still stuck? Send us a report from the app. It includes what Backstage saw during your show.
