MP sponsored 25% off everything discount glitch

MakerPlace is offering another 25% off everything discount for 11/11 - 11/18. I noticed that looking at my store, there is only 13 items showing the 25% off discount, but if I do a keyword search, the results do show the discount under the thumbnail photo, but not on the product page, when I put that item in the Cart, it the 25% discount do show up there.

Just another messed up thing with MP. Anybody else have issues?

Nothing about it on the “Incident status report”, probably still too early for anything to show up there. Going to sent them a report about it, and see if that shows up in the incident status report"

I added an additional discount to 123 items out of 500 total. Out of those 123:

19 items show the sitewide 25% discount on the main search page, but are missing the 25% discount on the product page for checkout.

On 70 items, 25% sitewide discount shows neither on the search page nor on the item page.

When you search my shop from the MakerPlace website, 21 items do not show MY extra discount on the search results page, even though it shows correctly on the product page itself

On 1 item, my added discount shows up neither on the search page nor the product page.

4 items show neither the sitewide 25% nor my add-on discount on the search page, but are correct on the item page.

TOTAL 115 mistakes, which is absolutely ridiculous. 6 hours of totally wasted time checking all of my sale-added items.

Tomorrow I’ll go though items without the added discount, post the results to the MakerPlace FB page, and send a detailed list to MakerPlace listing every last item with every single mistake.

This is more than a glitch — it’s sloppy crappy coding. I’ll try not to use swear words when I write MP.

I started my sale (on my entire catalog) a few days before Michael’s to see if it would be propagated by the time of the sale. All my listings were correct after 24hrs or less. They all look like this

I sent them an email yesterday about this issue and asked why this kind of problem happens again and again.

Anyway, there is part of the reply:
"I’ve checked your products, and I can confirm that the red text on the Product Listing page that says, ‘Extra 25% Off MakerPlace Orders’ or even the ‘Extra 25% off Category on MakerPlace’ is not visible. I’ve coordinated this with our dedicated team for further review.

Thanks for checking & confirm :roll_eyes:. Did he think I don’t have anything better to do than reporting an non existing issue?

As of this morning, my issue has not been fixed. It probably will be fixed when the promotion is finished.

I went through all 377 items without my added sale and all of them are fine, so it’s just the sale items which display incorrectly. Makes me wonder why I bother, with so much broken code.

Checked this morning, the 25% discount not displaying issue has been fixed, at least for me.

Now I have 10% off (my own sale) plus the MP 25% off on all my listings, but sadly the stats for “Listing Views” are showing about 1-2 per day. So I’m not holding my breath for sales on MP. Haven’t had a sale since June. :frowning_face:

I had a sale this week, but otherwise it is a very slow website.
