A now-resolved platform bug caused some automated GBP Galactic posts to show a "No Image selected" placeholder instead of an image thumbnail. If any of your existing posts still display this placeholder, use the steps below to re-attach the image.
🔍 What "No Image Selected" Looks Like in GBP Galactic
In Local → Posts (GBP Posts), an affected post shows a "No Image selected" placeholder in the image field instead of an image thumbnail. The symptom is intermittent — other posts in the same list may display their images correctly while only certain posts are affected, including posts across multiple business locations.
✅ Current Status: This Bug Has Been Resolved
This was a confirmed Search Atlas platform bug (internal reference: GBP-1190). The engineering team identified the root cause and deployed a fix. Automated posts created after the fix are not affected.
If your automated posts were created before the fix was deployed, some may still show the "No Image selected" placeholder. Use the steps below to correct any affected posts manually.
🤖 "No Image Selected" After Choosing AI Generate (GBP-1182)
If you see "No Image selected" after choosing the AI Generate media option (rather than uploading your own image), this was a separate bug (internal reference: GBP-1182) that has also been resolved. Create a new post with the AI Generate option — it should now produce and attach the image correctly. If it still does not, contact Search Atlas support.
🛠️ How to Fix Posts Still Showing "No Image Selected"
- Go to Local → Posts (GBP Posts).
- Locate a post displaying the "No Image selected" placeholder in the image field.
- Click Edit on that post.
- In the Image field, re-select the intended image from your media library or upload a replacement image.
- Click Save to update a draft or scheduled post, or click Publish to push the post live immediately.
The image thumbnail will now display correctly in the post list, confirming the image has been successfully re-attached. Repeat these steps for each affected post.
If the image still does not appear after saving, contact Search Atlas support and reference bug GBP-1190 so the team can investigate your specific post.
📋 How to Verify a Post Has the Correct Image After Saving
After saving an edited post, confirm the image is correctly attached before moving on:
- Return to Local → Posts (GBP Posts). The corrected post should now show an image thumbnail instead of the "No Image selected" text.
- If the post has already published to Google Business Profile, open your Google Business Profile dashboard and check the live post to confirm the image is visible there as well.
⚠️ When to Contact Search Atlas Support
Reach out to the Search Atlas support team if any of the following apply:
- The "No Image selected" placeholder persists after you re-save the image and refresh the page.
- A large number of posts are affected and manually re-editing each one is not practical for your account.
- A post that already published to Google Business Profile is missing its image and you need help republishing it correctly.
- You see the placeholder after using the AI Generate media option on a newly created post (reference bug GBP-1182).
When contacting support, include your account name, the affected business location(s), and the approximate date range of the affected posts so the team can investigate faster.
🎯 You now know how to identify the "No Image selected" bug in GBP Galactic Posts, confirm it has been resolved at the platform level, and fix any posts still showing the placeholder. If re-attaching the image manually does not resolve the issue, contact Search Atlas support with your account details and the relevant bug reference (GBP-1190 or GBP-1182).
