Hi, Can't Upload Sim to Gallery, Why Not?

I know I don't do this very often, but generally all I've had to do in the past was to put the Sim, lot, or room into My Library and from there I could upload to the Gallery. I thought that my initial problem was that I placed the family into cas.fulleditmode and after I removed the wife the two infants remained. No way to delete them. Then it dawned on my to start all over and the second time I split him from the family in manage families. I placed him in a different save file than the one I'm currently playing, loaded him to My Library, but from there I still can't put him on the Gallery. The cloud icon just isn't there, STILL.

Is this a known problem? Or what am I doing wrong? Please help, another player asked if this Sim was on the Gallery, so I thought I would put him there for any and all to have him. My bad. Try to do something nice …

Please, and thank you, in advance.

    Make sure you're online. Go to the Gallery. Sometimes when I have a long play session, the Gallery goes offline (for me anyway). Then try uploading your sim. Apart from that, I really don't know what could be causing it.

    Thank you for the response. I have been playing for at least two hours, now. I'll see if that's the problem.

    Unfortunately, I am online. I think I'll try to upload the Sim to the Gallery again, though.

    Did you fix it?

    I also thought maybe you need to restart the game, if you haven't already thought of that.

    Do you have any mods?
    I have uploaded my Sims with mods, and I can find them with my PC version, but can't find them while on my PS4.

    Yes, I do have mods, but I've had them for a very long time, too. Even when I uploaded some of my builds. I have no clue what's going on. Unfortunately, my Sim is modded. Kinda need those pointed ears for him to be Spock, you know?

    I haven't yet powered up my game today, so I will see if it works today. Thanks.

    Did you try first placing the household from library to cas and then adding them straight from cas to gallery? it might be the gallery buttons are bugged in specific cause gallery has been bit wonky lately

    or yes idk could be mods since i don't play with them to really advice on those :sweat_smile:

    Yes, basically. I placed them into CAS from my ongoing game, then took them into the game again, so that I could split the Sim I wanted to upload from the family. I made the mistake on the first go-around of trying simply to remove the other adult Sim, leaving the Sim I wanted to upload with the infant twins. Face/palm. I thought that was the reason it was a no-go. So, I deleted and tried again. This time I split the correct Sim from the family, so no infants accompanied him. I still can't upload. What the heck?

    I will try again, since it was suggested shutting down the game and powering up again may help. This is just crazy.

    I know you would get a pop-up warning you about a disallowed word. I did last night when I was saving my alien sim to my Library. I'm not sure what the disallowed word was with mine because there wasn't anything obvious to me. Even then, when I loaded up my Library the cloud icon was still there as if I could share him.

    The only other thing I could think to tell you is to repair the game.
