Hi Nôra, maybe it´s a useful hint that the points are not somewhere in the ocean, but more or less exactly at the intersection of equator and prime meridian (0°/0°)?

It is not stacked because the “phantom” points are all at the same location somewhere in the ocean.

Sorry, I now realised that I wrote “polygon feature”. I actually use “Add point feature” What is the geometry of your shapefile layer? If you intend to have points in it, then the geometry should be "point". The geometry is Point.
