Troubleshooting and Safety

Resolve common problems and review important safety limitations.

Region list does not load#

  • Choose a state first.
  • Retry after changing the state.
  • Search at state level if the region service is temporarily unavailable.

Location permission was denied#

  • Enter a suburb, postcode or address manually.
  • Change browser site permissions only if you want location-based sorting.

A route stop has no map pin#

The listing may lack coordinates. Google Maps may still use its address. Report incorrect or incomplete location data.

Too many route stops#

Split the route into days or separate routes. Google Maps URL/waypoint limits can make very long routes unreliable.

Verification email did not arrive#

  • Check spam/junk.
  • Wait for the resend cooldown.
  • Use Resend verification email.
  • Confirm the address or use Change email.

Listing edit is not visible#

It may be pending approval. Existing approved content can remain public until moderation. Check My Listings for status.

Enquiry button is unavailable#

Direct enquiries require a claimed/eligible listing. Use public contact information or report outdated details instead.

Produce Alert email did not arrive#

  • Confirm the account email is verified.
  • Check notification preference and spam/junk.
  • Confirm the interest was not withdrawn.
  • The farmer must confirm Available Now and choose to notify eligible followers.

Shared route changes are missing#

Private edits are not published automatically. Open Manage sharing → Publish Route Changes.

QR code opens an old destination#

Custom direct QR codes are permanent snapshots. Replacing a destination creates a new code/version; previously printed copies still contain the old URL.

Permission denied in a Hostinger cron#

Delete the incorrectly configured direct executable job and recreate it with Type: PHP, the website’s PHP version and only the full PHP file path.

Emergency rollback for an optional feature#

  1. Disable the relevant feature flag.
  2. Disable its cron jobs if applicable.
  3. Preserve data and logs.
  4. Restore backed-up application files.
  5. Diagnose before re-enabling.

Do not drop tables or delete production data as an ordinary rollback step.
