Votes missing

hansdr opened this issue · comments

I'm missing 300-400 votes on a contest.
According to analytics > 800 (no double IP adresses) ended up on the contest page.
I have however only 450 votes. Where have the rest gone?
Where are the votes stored?

Wordpress 3.5
Thesis 1.8
MyContest 2.0.7

The votes are stored in the wordpress database. Votes do not mean page hits.

Hi Kyle,
I think I figured it out.
A click on the vote button in a lightbox is not registered.
A regular vote is.
Can I disable the lightbox?

I will check this out and get back to you why there is a problem.

Make sure that myContest is updated to the latest version (2.0.10). Follow the instructions in the docs to update (http://highergroundstudio.github.io/myContest/#!/install_updates).

Hello,
I have updated myContest to version 2.0.10, makes no difference.
Have you checked it out? What was the problem?

I never heard back from you so I was working on the next update. I will check this out.

I am changing how the entire plugin works and this will be changed anyway. I can fix this for now if you want or just work on getting myContest updated to version 3.0 with customizable entries.

Hi Kyle,
Thanks for your answer and work, really appreciate it. I'll wait for 3.0 so no need for a fix right now.
Any idea when it's gonna be released?

I am trying for 1-2 weeks from now (including testing)
