About Uploading (NOT VISIBLE)
-
I just uploaded my first torrent, but it says it's still not visible. I don't know how to "seed" or wtv because it keeps saying I should seed it and I read the instructions I was sent, which were completely different from the first ones I got.
I was messaged to delete it from my programme (idk if it meant my device or my uploads) if it meant my uploads, I wanted to delete it but I was very cautious bcs of the "dangers signs" the delete button was showing me.
The other thing I did was to download my own torrent and download it on qtorrent, which nothing is happening.
could someone please teach me how to seed, WITHOUT using very broad words, be very specific, my problem isn't reading it's that I don't really get what means what.

If you've downloaded the torrent from the site and are using that in your client, not the one you created, the most likely explanation is that your client is trying to find the files you want to seed in the wrong directory. Look for the "Save path". If you're using qBittorrent, it's the second to last line on the 'General' tab. This is where the client is expecting the files to be. If this is not where they actually are, you have two choices:
(1) Pause the torrent. Copy or move the files there, maintaining the same directory structure as shown in the torrent. "Force recheck" the torrent. It should now find them. If it reaches 100% it has. Restart the torrent.
or
(2) Change the location the client should be looking. In qBittorrent, pause the torrent. Right-click it, then choose 'Set Location'. Use the dialogue box that opens to change the location to where the files actually are. 'Force recheck' the torrent. Assuming it gets to 100%, restart it.
If you're not using qBittorrent, the locations of where to find stuff will likely be different, but the principle is the same.
