I'm in the AP+ beta and wanting to publish a pose to the new AP+ store. But in IMVU Studio I only have the option to either post to General or AP. There is no selection for AP+, so I just selected AP. I'm guessing that my item will likely not pass peer review, and even if it did, I want to publish to AP+ store. I have the most recent version of IMVU Studio installed, so what am I doing wrong. Anyone else having similar issues? Thanks for any help on this.

You need to be a member of the AP+ creator testing group in order to be able to submit AP+ products.

Thanks @Ashleyellen. I filed a ticket and IMVU responded saying that they have received a lot of applications, and it's taking time to review and I'll be notified when the application process is complete. I then asked if they could estimate whether it would take days, weeks, months for their review process to complete. Basically, I just want to know how long I should expect to wait. They did not respond further and just closed the ticket.

17 days later and no response. It's hard to justify putting time required in to make AP+ products if you have no idea when you'll be able to upload them to the store.

Thanks @Polystyrene. Really appreciative of you providing some insight. It's hard not knowing and just waiting. Thank again.

We haven't had any new creators added to the Discord yet so I'm guessing they are still processing applications.

Hoping that I can get some guidance on here on how to get an invite to the AP+ Beta Creators program. I've done everything I think I was supposed to do. As I mentioned earlier in this post, I'm in in the AP+ beta program (i.e., I have access to the AP+ store). I'm signed up and paying the $4.99 per month for the AP+ subscription. I'm also in the creator program (I've sold General and AP items in my store). Lastly, I filled out the form for joining the AP+ Beta Creators program (before the Feb 7 deadline) but I haven't heard anything from the IMVU AP+ team. I also sent an email to be added to the Discord, but also heard nothing back on that. Thanks for any insight from the community on this as I'm pretty much in the dark right now just waiting.

Oh and I just got a email inviting to apply for AP+ Beta Creators program. I had to fill out a form and answer a few general questions about my level of interest, experience with creating products, etc. The form had to be filled out by Feb 7, so I'm not if that means no one new will get accepted into the creator program before that date. Either way, this is progress so I'm excited.

Ok - Thanks! This is starting to make sense to me now. So I guess I just have to be patient and wait to get invited to be a creator. I'm so ready to create AP+ items! I've also just sent off the necessary information to get added to the AP+ Discord, so hopefully they'll add me there soon and I can keep informed that way. Thanks for all your help Polystyrene :)

Well, that's good timing. I just received a message inviting me to join the creators' beta (even though I'm already a member). I'm not sure if they sent the message out to everyone or if it is just a select group.

To add to what @Polystyrene said, the AP+ creator program needs creators to be re-verified specifically for the program, and most (if not all) the current AP+ Creators got direct access through the initial open call for applications. It's likely any new additions will come through additional open calls so you'll want to make sure to be visiting the Discord to keep an eye on what's going on.

They aren't currently taking any new creators into the program but staff has said they may be adding more soon. For now you'll just have to wait and keep an eye on your inbox for any messages.

Thanks, Polystyrene. Do you know what steps I need to take to join the AP creator testing group? I'm already in the AP+ program. I can see the AP+ content in the store. I'm VIP and am an active creator for general and AP content. So do you mean there are some additional steps I need to take to get added to the AP+ testing group. Feel like I should asking this in an AP+ discord. Thanks for any help.
