  1. Daily Highlight Bug

    I think the Daily Highlight changes at 12am and 1am on the same day, I've noticed twice now that I've seen a daily highlight change at midnight, only to change again soon after. Any way we can check on this?

    My only guess is the cron is running twice....code is good. That is a different place to dig and can't get to it today but I bet that is what is happening. Crons are finicky depending on the control panels and had to do a bunch of experiments to get them to work.

    Good catch, that will be some XP bonus when I find it!!

    Daily Highlight is bugged again. Not sure on the details yet, but Library of the Ancients hasn't change in a while and it's 3:30AM EST. I'll keep an eye on it.

    Just checked my first post on it, when I first saw it on the Highlight... 11/20 @ 1:30AM EST it is now the 22nd. Definitely something wrong here.

    Well, it looks like the cron I removed may have been it. Not sure why it was running twice but I am going to have to put it back and deal with the double dip and will try and figure it out later. Very weird.

    You may have noticed, but the Daily Highlight has changed. Not sure when, maybe just now?

    Ran the cron job manually to reset everything. Levels and votes were updated as well.

    Does that mean that everything will be resetting at this time now and not Midnight EST? Might want to make sure it's still on schedule. Could lead to some confusion.

    Always go by server time which is Texas or Chicago or something like that. Will stay with that.

    Looks like it broke again. The highlight has been on the Salt and Herb Shoppe for quite some time, over 24 hours since the last comment on it. Might want to take a look at it.

    Ah. I think I have to redo the cron job after the reload. Good catch!

    Mytrian, The Wise has been the highlight for a few days now.

    Wind-catching cape has also been highlighted for awhile now.  Pretty sure it's been over 24 hours.

    The refresh hasn't happened for a few days. (And I'm outta votes  :( )

    Looks like it's fixed.

    Despite what I said last night in the shoutbox (It's fixed and firing at 1am EST), it seems to be that it is still running twice a night (or more?) as the highlight is different today than when i signed off last night. Looks like you still have some work to do, but it appears we have a sort of magical Witching Hour in which to get as many votes as possible in ;)

    That was me with a manual reset after seeing the thread.

    Didn't touch anything else but I guess it started working again.

    I love magic.
