Discussion on Local Guides' 2024 Star 360 Spheres

@PrasadVR I get it. I thought we only provide hyperlink for POI not the specific Star media. I had no idea if we can provide individual url for each photo however it would have been extremely helpful is it showed the view count. I have a good 360 photo at this POI but I can’t pin it and see it’s views. I most probably would replace this star 360 sphere but I’m unable to find that one. I’m still confused whether should I update the link as I’m gonna replace it before this month’s final submission for the LB of August.

@Trail_blazer , I have no direct experience on Sphere 360. My comments here are based on my observations of other LGs’ contributions in the Star 360 Sphere album.

@PrasadVR Fixed it. That’s the only best star 360 I can find in my contributions. It’s only because you pinged otherwise it could have taken more time :grinning: :+1:t2:

The link is perfect, and the view is breathtaking.I’m impressed. Great job :+1: !

@AdamGT

I’m not happy to be on any leaderboards this month if this is ok exclude me

it kinda done a prement thing saying u looked already & put values in

yes we are in 360 but mine wasn’t ever looked @

sabittical

thanks

Peadar

Edit:

Those who are happiest are those who do the most for others.

Hey @Peadar , are you saying you don’t like the new system where part of the monthly update is automated? I’m sure @AdamGT did this to make it easier for all LGs and to include as many more as possible on the Leaderboards. Could you explain why this would make you unhappy?

Congratulations on being Level 8 and keep on making those wonderful contributions.

Apologies @tony_b for late reply

I think I’m more mad with myself than anyone else, I didn’t have a great few days as everything I done / touched went pear shaped, I do like the automated updates idea, but that was my problem to get done & part of the problem, why I’m a so bad at phones/laptops, I’m glad to report my rant is over & apologies to all, my kids say copy/paste dad :person_shrugging::male_sign: that’s all

but this is my struggle

thanks Tony B

this is my 3rd & last time replying

if I dare mention AdamGt name here with the @ before it, it resets to starting to typing this all over again

thats how bad I am

Hi @AdamGT ,

While updating data for this month’s leaderboard, I have noticed a different View history table here.

Is this sytem generated code or some error?

Hello @Kumaarsantosh

@nigelfreeney generated his own views history table but do stay tuned for updates to the system generated tables.

I got to the bus stop

but the bus has gone again

perhaps me

is my star 360 pic entry invalid in some way as thought I should have shown up in the last 2 months

I entered it in Star Media Albums 360 sphere’s

Looking closely mine in in portrait & not landscape

& I took it with an iPhone on the google street view app

Thanks

Peadar

Based on the caption under your entry in the album @Peadar , it looks like you updated at the end of July but not the end of August.

The other details don’t matter as much, but you need to consistently log in and update your stats on the Top100 dashboard once in every month.

Yes @tony_b you are correct but it didn’t show up in the August star media albums 360 sphere’s but the entry after did

thanks for helping me out

Is this a NWAI job

never showed up in the next months listings after including it

nor the next month after either, as you said I didn’t update something that never showed up in the first place,

in fairness it’s a crappy 360 pic shot with a iPhone 6+ on the streetview app

Was it the entry or me or the quirkiness

of it all,

yes I’ll be giving out to again but I have asked several times

I did ask in proper space where I thought but

@AdamGT moved it to where it belonged

for those that help we salute ye

@tony_b

all well I hope

your moving into this space & and I commend your enthusiasm

Not sure what’s happening here @Peadar . As I said before, you need to consistently log in and update your stats on the Top100 dashboard once in every month. If you don’t have two consecutive months in some stats, you don’t show on the Leaderboard.

September is almost done, so it would be wise to do an update on the 27th or 28th.

@Peadar , I’ve just had a quick look at your latest updated data and can see that you correctly updated both your star photo and star video and hence they are included in the respective August Leaderboards, but not your star 360 sphere.

I suggest that you act on the good advice being given to you by @tony_b and make sure that you check and where necessary update your data and when it comes to your stars, make sure that you update their screenshot data regardless on whether not not the star views have changed. You can see another recent example of mentioning the importance of dates in this reply here to @TerryPG regarding star views per day.

It’s really quite simple! As @tony_b has mentioned, update each month on or before the 27th or 28th and you should be fine.

Tell me more

it never showed up on 360 listings ever

hence my asking

And it never will @Peadar unless you do exactly what you did with your star photo and star video! Login to the Leaderboard System and add your star 360 sphere details!
