hi @SKINNYWENIZ ,

There is a problem with updating.
This documentation might help
Creating Custom Lobby Backgrounds | Fortnite Creative Documentation | Epic Developer Community

If the automatic publishing hits a problem then this reverts to the original.

UPDATE There is an official report on Fortnite Status
Fortnite Status on X: “We’re aware of an issue in UEFN and Creative where some lobby images may be missing when publishing. We are working on a fix and we’ll let you know when we have more information. https://t.co/gh460eKTDK” / X

Hi, I have been experiencing the same lobby screen not being able to delete or change since October 8, 2024.

I have continued to inquire with support, but it has been “handled” without being acknowledged as a glitch.

Support’s response is.
@Jimbohalo10
The response from support was the same as @Jimbohalo10’s response, which was an announcement of guidelines for creating lobby images and advice regarding my environment and images, but this issue is still a glitch.
It’s a simple glitch and still not recognized as a glitch and my message is not received.

@SKINNYWENIZ
Thanks for creating the thread, I hope our message reaches the human staff and not the AI.

@user_b8b6c6b7ec66cb5f07139664624fb1b6d4263d6882f15a08724112 I have had the same problem with support. I been trying with them since September. I’ve tried reverting the version but that didn’t help either. Hopefully someone has a fix for this problem.

Thank you for the report.
