This situation is getting out of hand and I'm officially a broken record. Do not use the Featured folder, as it takes approval of the admins for deviations to be accepted. I've been trying to close it for a while but to no avail. Use the respective folder for what you want to post instead.
Also, make sure you're an official member (and not just a watcher) of the group so you can have access to them.

And if you have any questions about how the folders work, read these rules: splatoonfans.deviantart.com/jo…

You have to disable the function by doing:
Admin Area > Manage Members > "Members" Tab > and change the option under "Submission to 'Feature':" to Are Not Allowed. And if that's not working then I suggest messaging dA via help desk.

Guess I'll have to ask the staff then, since I already did that and some people can still use it.

Ah, well I hope the issued is fixed soon. If it makes you feel any better, the feature option is closed for me too

The issue is that people don't select folders, they just dump their deviation on whichever folder is the default. I have that issue in my group, I get submissions to "Secret Santa 2016" which, obviously, is over. I really should close that folder aha.Β 

If you're having issues closing it, when you go in to make the change, made sure you make the change for ALL types of members/non-members.

Man, now that's just being lazy! It really shouldn't be so hard to figure out how to change the folder you're submitting to if I could figure it out myself!

I already checked multiple times, in "Any Deviant" and "Members" it says that submissions to Featured are not accepted... yet people can still use it. I have no idea why that is.

Hmm that's strange. I know I went to the gallery to check and I couldn't, I wonder how some people are still managing it. Weird!Β

Thank you for your kind offer! I will consider it but I might have to talk about it with the founder. ^^

You need to go to your Admin area and set it so that Featured folder submissions are not accepted.

I did, yet people can still use it anyway.

Well, I'm locked out of submitting to Featured on my end.

Really? And then there's people who can submit to some folders that were supposedly full while most others can't... why is DA so weird? :'D
