Thirdweb contract not recognized as NFT drop

NFT
1

I’m having trouble with my Next.js app using Thirdweb. When I try to use my contract, I get an error saying “Contract is not a nft-drop”. I’ve even copied the exact code from the Thirdweb dashboard, but the error persists. Here’s what I’m trying:

import { useContract } from '@thirdweb-dev/react'

function NFTDropComponent() {
  const { contractInstance } = useContract("0x1234...5678", "nft-drop")

  // More code to interact with the NFT drop contract
}

I’m using the useContract hook as shown in the Thirdweb React docs. But it’s not working. Any ideas on how to fix this? Maybe I’m missing something obvious?

hey there! i’ve had similar issues with thirdweb before. have you double-checked that you’re on the right network? sometimes i forget to switch networks and my contracts don’t show up properly :sweat_smile:

also, are you sure the contract is actually an nft drop? maybe it’s a different type of contract? you could try switching ‘nft-drop’ to something else like ‘edition-drop’ or ‘marketplace’ and see if that works.

oh, and one more thing - have you tried logging the contract instance to see what’s actually being returned? might give you some clues. something like:

console.log(contractInstance)

let me know if any of that helps! i’m curious to hear what you find out :thinking:

yo, had this happen to me too. make sure ur contract is actually an nft drop. sometimes thirdweb can be weird about contract types. try logging the contract instance to see whats goin on. also double check ur on the right network, that tripped me up before. good luck!

Have you verified the contract on the blockchain explorer? Sometimes the issue isn’t with Thirdweb itself, but with how the contract is deployed or configured. I’d recommend checking Etherscan (or the equivalent explorer for your network) to make sure the contract is verified and its functions are visible.

Also, it might be worth trying to interact with the contract directly using ethers.js or web3.js to rule out any Thirdweb-specific issues. This can help pinpoint whether the problem is with the contract itself or the Thirdweb integration.

If all else fails, you might want to redeploy the contract using Thirdweb’s deployment tools. This can sometimes resolve recognition issues, especially if there were any hiccups during the initial deployment process.
