@Seakyusee1 Most important, have you downloaded the torrent that the site created when you uploaded it, or are you trying to seed using the torrent you created? If the latter, it won't work. What client (app) are you using? qBittorrent? uTorrent? Something else? This may help in diagnosing the problem, if it's not the one above. (Hint: It usually IS the one above.) Can you post the link to the torrent you've created?

@frostycab I'm guessing that these are niche torrents. That's typical of a lot of the BL torrents I grab. There are few takers overall, but those that want them tend to grab them quickly. There's not much traffic expected after that, and often uploaders include a lot of "unnecessary" image files, and multiple .srt files instead of soft coding them into the main file. I suspect many downloaders don't want to keep all of these, so have difficulty seeding, especially long term. If you suffer a lot with not being able to download a torrent that shows as having one or two seeders or, likewise, you're seeding yet someone has been sitting there trying to leech for ages yet has been unable to, here's a suggestion: Someone in the swarm has to be contactable. A big part of this is someone having port forwarding functioning. That's why you can see three or four people waiting to download a new torrent but nothing is happening. Then a fifth person joins who has this, and things instantly start moving. The larger the swarm, the more likely one or more of the peers has this. I've just switched to a VPN provider who has this feature (Proton). Now I have it configured correctly, I've seen a dramatic increase in the number of torrents I'm seeding. Most of the time there are 15+ now, whereas previously it would only be a handful. And I'm seeding torrents where there's only one leecher and I'm the only seeder, or maybe there's one other, that have not connected before. So if your VPN provider allows this, it's worth spending a few minutes setting it up, or consider switching provider when the opportunity next arises. Now, if only I could work out why I'm not reaching the up/down speeds my ISP promises, and that I used to see!

Staff here. This is how visibility works: a fresh upload stays non-visible until our tracker sees the first seeder, there is no approval queue. The usual fix when uTorrent says seeding but the site disagrees: delete the torrent you created locally from the client, download the .torrent file from your own upload page here, add that one to uTorrent pointing at your original files, then force a re-announce. That version carries your personal announce key, which the self-made one does not. It should flip to visible within a minute or two of the tracker seeing you. If it still stays invisible after that, tell me the torrent name and I will check the tracker side directly.

There is nothing you can really do if you posted under .099 GB of torrentz and your ratio is more on downloading than posting content w/c trigger your ratio as well ... As my courtesy 100 SBP to trade 1.0 GB in the traffic goodluck !!! ... jhon

@Kevin4fm Yea i will usually remove them from Vuze, rename them and stick them in a catalog folder so my Stash can pull Metadata. ok ill give that a shot. thank you guys for the help.

@tarrat if you still have the same issue and need help in the future make sure to inform your OS, which version of utorrent you're running, if the files are on SSD or HDD. If your upload is smaller than 8GB you don't even need to create a torrent, you can hash it directly from the upload page.

Welcome aboard. 0 kB/s upload usually means your torrent client can't accept incoming connections, so other peers can't reach you to pull data from you. Two things fix it most of the time: make sure your client's listening port is open/forwarded in your router (or turn on UPnP / NAT-PMP in the client settings), and if you're on a VPN, use one that supports port forwarding. Also double-check the client is actually seeding the completed files. Once peers can connect to you, your upload will pick up. Let us know if it's still stuck after that.

Quick update from the team — this is fixed now. Uploading torrents and adding pictures were failing for a few hours because of a technical problem on our side (nothing to do with your torrents or your accounts). It is sorted and everything is back to normal — new uploads are flowing again. Sorry for the disruption, and thanks for the reports, they helped us pin it down fast.

@etalith this tool is not new, it was developed a while ago by a fellow site member but after the recent overhaul that changed the entire site, this tool has also stopped working. Now you need to use the upload page, there's no other way yet. A new app is in development but there's no estimate for release.

Solid one, saving the form as you go so a failed submit doesn't wipe it. Noted, and we're fixing the upload failures that make it sting in the first place.

@rnd256 omg yes me too

@Tomron20 if you add the torrent in qbittorrent and set the download location to where you already have your files, it will start seeding. but if you want to try my program, here's the link: Re-seed Tool for Windows users Read the topic to understand how it works, after the program locates the torrent contents it will ask if you want to start seeding, and adds it to your qbittorrent automatically.
