Promoted Posts Bug

in #steemit • 8 years ago

Important Notification – Promoted Posts

We are currently experiencing a bug which is preventing user promoted posts from reliably being included on the promoted feed. We are aware of the bug and a fix is in the works.

Until this bug is fixed, we are removing the ability for users to promote their posts to ensure that the platform is working equitably for the entire community.

We will post another update when the bug has been fixed.

    I had promoted one of my posts the other day and it didn't show up on the list. It was only $1 so I didn't care. I am glad you guys found it. Good going.

    Make it a high priority. I'm trying to bring advertisers to platform and basically can't without promoted being functional.

    Where's all the refunds at for the lost promotion costs that yielded 0 promotion?

    This is beta bro. Likely wont happen. Use beta software at your own risk.

    Agreed. Also, it really only affected people that promoted small amounts. If you promoted by enough to show up in the top 5-10 promoted posts (which has not been much past couple of weeks) then it worked just fine. Hopefully nobody was too adversely affected.

    Beta isn't an excuse. They should issue beta refunds.

    Agreed and I suppose they could. You could make that suggestion on the issue on github.

      I think your payment is merely burned when you pay (nobody recieves the payment ), so refunds are likely impossible.

          It can still be honoured though since it is all recorded in the blockchain. Also posts that were successfully promoted are still being displayed.
