I just checked what the encoding should be for that. I know it should just recognize it, but out of curiosity, replace the hyphens with %2D. That should be workaround.

Thanks. I hadn't seen anyone ask it, but that's totally fair. I appreciate you bringing it to my attention

Not going to lie, I've been hoping for this for awhile, but there's one thing I've noticed in testing. There is no way to incorporate data merge into the payload system. Is this something we should expect, or will payloads have to be entered in manually until otherwise stated?

I see it now. Thanks!

Thanks! I can’t seem to see your screenshot, but I’ll go look through it. Thanks!

That is absolutely right. I'm sorry if I didn't say that too clearly in the original post.

EDIT: It's officially been solved! Thanks to everyone who downloaded the project to try and help and special thanks to Stokerg for finding the data merge layout I had left in the wrong spot. I'll leave the fixed version of the project here for anyone who might find it useful. I will also probably put it in "Share Your Work" with a guide. Thanks again! Hello friends from the Internet. I have been working on a calendar-generating tool in Affinity Publisher that has the following pages: A front cover page to be adjusted in post A page set up for data merge with a picture and text for the month, a grid of days with holidays setup to merge A back cover page with a data merge layout that shows each month's picture on the back Right now, if I go into the data merge manager and step through each record on the included excel sheet, everything appears to look normal, but when I click the merge button, I get the font cover page, a single month page for January, and a back cover page with the image for every month on it. I can't seem to get the data merge to give me calendar pages for each month. I've already checked the excel sheet for blank cells and can't find ones that should matter. I would love it if someone could help me figure this out. Thanks friends! Calendar Project FIXED.zip

This template was made as labor of love and will be updated as I can and notice new products. That said, as Redbubble is now introducing artist tiers, and I am on the Redbubble Standard tier, I will not have access to every product right away. I welcome and encourage Redbubble Premium and Redbubble Pro designers to expand and publish their own versions of this template online. I do ask for credit where my template is the basis but I recognize that's not policeable. This tool was always meant to be a boon to vector artists so they could make the art they love and not have to spend time copying their designs. I hope it continues to serve that purpose.

Thanks! The adjustments worked on pricing which is great. Relative paths work, but they only work right now if my images are in a data merge layout. That causes some problems stylistically but it does demonstrate that the problem is elsewhere.

Presented to the Affinity Community: This bug is also in Publisher V1. I have attached a folder containing a CSV, example art images, and an afPub file designed to let me make easy changes to my art commission pricing and example work. The images, art offerings, and prices are all Data Merge fields. My problem is that when I am in the Data Merge Manager, I can step through each index and everything appears as expected, but when I try to output a document, the pricing and pictures disappear. Hopefully someone has the answer because it is quite confusing. Thanks! Commission Design Folder.zip

Hello Affinity friends. A few months ago, I posted a template for Redbubble artists that helped them resize their art for the platform's different products. This isn't an ad but you can find it here. The template makes heavy use of symbols (as of this post, there are 47 instances) but it worked perfectly well on Designer V1. In V2, I have noticed a glitch where symbols do not mirror properly (Elements in the wrong spot, orientation, etc.) Occasionally they do not mirror at all. The second problem I have found can be fixed by removing elements from a symbol and putting them back in, but the orientation/positioning bug is one I cannot seem to fix. I hope none of you are having the same issue but if you are, I hope you might have some advice. Thanks, Kyle

Here is an updated version of the tool. This one fixes the issue of personal items not being configured. Frame text still doesn't work but the issue can still be avoided by using art text. Redbubble Design Machine.aftemplate

Yours. The file above is for any Redbubble seller to use.

Right now your line spacing, and some formatting will not appear the same in different-sized art boards

KNOWN ERROR: Frame text does not scale properly; Currently Investigating Workaround: Copy frame text content into art text
