Hey Ganz team just so your aware the Ghost in the Clubhouse event says Sept 20-31 on this page, also in the next update could you bring back the feature that when you drag a gift box into your pets room it shakes and explodes stars and confetti before showing you the items like it used to before Webkinz X? I really miss that feature and I would love it if it came back! :)
The article is now fixed. Thanks!
I would like to know why my comments are not posting. I am having problems logging onto my account through google chrome. Does cancelling my ganz estore account cause this? Why do you fix problems then cause more?
Hi, there! If you’re having issues logging in, please try clearing your cache. Your Ganz eStore account has no effect on your ability to log in. Unfortunately when updates occur, there’s sometimes a difference between the version that’s stored locally and the version you load — this conflict can cause issues like blue screen on login. We’re working on a fix so you won’t have to manually clear your cache in the future.
SaSally, Thanks for your help, much appreciated! Thanks for the nice gift you sent. All is back in working order.
Hi @seamojo! I can understand how you feel. at first I Really did not like webkinz X or any of the changes. But, Sooner or Later you will get used to these changes. (BTW Google Chrome NEVER works. At least for me.) There will always be problems/Glitches. I mean this is a videogame. On the computer (It is like mincraft. Minecraft : A world of Glitches…) XD Just hang in there seamojo every will be fine!
BigBroDragneel, Thanks for you kind message. Webkinz has fixed the problem and all is in working order.
Welcome, ^_^
now they just need to fix the molly kinz plushie issue, instead of getting the kinz you get pink fuzzy slippers
XD I love that glitch!
Haha IKR?!?!?!?! :)
I’ve been having problems logging into my Webkinz account online and mobile.
Thanks ganz! I wish that the super bed had been fixed before because I used my box hoping to find that but I just figured that it wasn’t out yet
Also, when is the Halloween flooring gonna be fixed?
Jk it’s fixed! Thanks!
I agree! I was looking for the bed, but it wasn’t there when I opened my box (which actually happened to be yesterday!) If only I’d waited a day, I could have gotten the bed I wanted.
awww sorry winterwarriorwolf… You know those times when “Hindsight is 20-20″??? :(
I think there might be another glitch. I’ve been trying to log onto my accounts with no success. I can log it, the “W” appears, but all I get is access to the top of the screen. I can open gifts and letters, but the rest of the screen remains blue. I can press the log out button and the response to press yes or no comes up, but again, it won’t do anything.
WEIRD… Have you tried clearing your cache like ImaPepper said? Or maybe try logging in again??
is it just me cause |I can’t log in and I want my gazebo. I’ve tried 4 times and its just a blue screen
It happened to me earlier today, too. I went on this morning so I could collect candy from the ghost in the reading room, but the page would not load all the way. It loaded the mailbox and stuff, but not the room or my pet. I hope this gets fixed soon.
That happened to me, too. It may have been a coincidence, but when I quit my web browser and relaunched it, I was able to log in.
I’ve also been clearing my cache every couple of days…maybe that helps?
Yeah I haven’t cleared my cache in forever and 3 days… I should probably do that :)
I have to clear my cache after every log in ATTEMPT to even stand a chance of getting in. So mine gets cleared 20-30 times a day or more, doesn’t always help so much. At least not for me.
Um, Mayor Cowabelle, you said I have to collect all 20 candies for the ghost to get the broomstick? There are only spaces for 12 candies. Did you mean collect all 12?
That’s been fixed. Thanks!
Helloooooooooooo Ghastly Gazebo!
Helloooo Franken-Kakashi’s Bed! LOL!!!
Haha funny xmy9tailxkinz! lol
Lucky Lucy! You got the Frankenstein bed! I still need 7 pets…
I still have like 9 or 10 pets to go… You know, one of the last pets I got, was my 10th, so I got the Superbox… but I didn’t know why I got it cuz I hadn’t read WKN… So I was like “what in the world?! I’ll just adopt a million cats and get a million superbeds!!! This is awesome!!” :) *hits head for the 3RD time*
I love updates!!! :D
I’m so glad some of the items that didn’t work are now fixed!
Whoo-hoo!
Yay! New update! I love that! So excited about everything…except for last year’s items being gone forever. (:
Are all of our missing items gone forever? CMSROCKZ
Not at all!
I have been on webkinz since 2007 and have over a 100 pets and I have never gotten a super bed box. CMSROCKZ
Are they all on the same account? You get a super bed box on the adoption of your 10th pet, and every 5th one after that.
They are all on the same account I started the account in 2007 I have never got a bed box. CMSROCKZ
You might want to send an email to webkinzsupport@ganz.com — that’s a long time to go without a super bed box!
I have been on webkinz since 2007 on the same account and have close to 100 pets and I have never received a super bed box which I should have received several I have sent e-mails which has been a waste of time,perhaps you can relay the message thank you CMSROCKZ
Only customer service can check your account. They would need to speak to you directly, so relaying a message wouldn’t be helpful in this situation.
Awesome! Soo.. the Kinzville park with KC+ works for everyone now?? (Please fix the winter wonderland fireplace soon!)
_emiemiemiemiemi_, again, I just wanted to say I’m sorry i couldn’t make it to your party! Webkinz wouldn’t let me! :(
Aw, that’s okay, Fennec. I actually couldn’t make it to my own party anyway..! o.o” It was my sister’s birthday so I got busy with trying to finish my work, cleaning, preparing for people to come and stuff.
I hope your sis had a great birthday! I hope you had a great time, too. :D
@_emiemiemiemiemi_ (Laughing while typing this. No offense. ) and @TaffyKitty12, Do you wanna be friends!? I am SwagCATguy.
Sure! My user is WarriorCat1010.
I’m artisfun1 you guys seem really cool! buddy me?
Lol, sure! And, no offense taken.. I get that stuff all. the. time! I mean, really, it is a pretty random username that me and my sister made up.. =P
Hehe emie!!! If you don’t mind, that is your new nickname! XD
I am just going to call you, Miss Em. If that’s OK with you.
Haha, okay guys! Sounds good, whatever ya want! =P I would call myself Emmy, I mean that was how I pronounce it… five times.. lol
Yeah, me too, TaffyKitty12! :D thanks webkinz!
By the way, FennecFox and all my other friends, I am going to host a Halloween party soon. It’s going to be Wizard themed though, so probably not your typical party! I’ll be sending out invitations soon. FennecFox, you are on my friends list, right? I’m Bobadil. Anyway, hope you all can attend! :D
ArtMagician, accept a friend request from RosieandScamper! I love parties!
Okay! Sure thing, FennecFox!
Why in the world is my pets calling me by my name!? Can they just call me by user? Thanks a bunch **** Your the best ****** Hey ******, Your the best owner a pet can ever have!
I know….. Although, I’d rather they just didn’t call me anything. :P I mean, suppose a Kinztuber wanted to film themselves playing? They couldn’t fulfill any pet requests, unless they didn’t mind giving out their name (or if they used a pseudonym).
Good job on the fixes, guys!
Yea!
Yeah, GOOD job!!!! :)
Yep, thx Ganz! :)
I always like it when we have these updates. By the way, Ganz, Webkinz X is working SO much better for me now! Your updates have really paid off! I am having much more fun now, and the running is smoother and almost completely back to normal. Thanks so much! :D
Thanks, ganz!
