Depending on the error, you may need to take a few actions:

We couldn't find your profile

This means that we couldn’t find the metadata event of your public key.

Please add the official Nostr Plebs relay to your Nostr profile:

  • wss://relay.nostrplebs.com

After the relay has been added, you’ll want to edit your profile, save it again, and wait 10 minutes for our systems to update.

You may also add one of the following relays, edit your profile, and wait for 10 minutes for it to update:

  • Free relays:

    • wss://relay.nostr.info

Your Nostr Address / NIP-05 is correctly set

This means that your Nostr address / NIP-05 has an invalid format. Try setting your NIP-05 to be in the format of user@nostrplebs.com. (or the domain you bought)

If it still does not work please try adding one of the relays in the “No metadata event found” section and if it still does not work, contact support.

Your Nostr Address / NIP-05 is not set to Nostr Plebs

This means that your Nostr address / NIP-05 is not one that you own on Nostr Plebs. Try setting your NIP-05 to one on Nostr Plebs.

If it still does not work please try adding one of the relays in the “No metadata event found” section and if it still does not work, contact support.
