The views on my star photo stopped growing since March 7th, 2024. Earlier, it was picking up about 60-70 views daily. After reviewing the data, I’ve noticed not only has my star photo’s views stopped increasing, but the same goes for the top four most-viewed photos since March 7th, 2024. Thanks to the Top 100 system, I’ve retrieved past data for analysis.
I’m curious if any other LG friends have experienced a similar situation.
@Annaelisa@WilfriedB Please note that my Star photo views dropped in February 2024 but returned back to normal on March 7, 2024. Since then, it is not increased.
I recall that earlier in March you reported that your star views had returned to normal @PrasadVR so it’s interesting that you are now seeing that in fact the star views have stalled and that this is the case with your top 4 star photos. @Annaelisa and if I’m reading his reply correctly, @tony_b are reporting the same experience whereas @Kumaarsantosh has indicated that the update period has been longer but eventually the view counts are updated. It will be interesting to see what the March star photo leaderboards indicate.
Thank you, @AdamGT , Yes, your conclusion is correct; The star views were restored on March 7th and remained stalled. I could analyse the views of four star photos due to limited data. It’s possible that the views of some other photos are also stalled.
Yes @AdamGT you’re correct. While @PrasadVR is reporting this for his top 4, I see this all the way down to the top 18. Here’s an extract from a response I posted on another thread:
Top performing photos:
Of the top 19 photos, only the last one changed a second time this month to become #16
Of the top 80 photos, six did not change at all
Of the top 80 photos, only 21 changed in the past week
Total video views show a steady increase from January through February and into March.
Of the top videos, only #3 kept on moving after early March, and this has now become #1
Of the list of all 68 videos, two did not change at all
Of the list of all 68 videos, only 32 changed in the past week
So, totals overall continue to increase, but it remains a mystery why some specific photos or videos are responding different to others in the present circumstances.
Just to be clear @PrasadVR , I monitor everything that’s above 35,000 views and there are about 80 of those now. The top 18 just happen to be the ones that are stuck at the moment, and #19 was the first on the list that appeared to go back to “normal” behaviour in recent weeks.
My top photo over 2 million views is what @AdamGT calls a Red Star (gaining almost zero new views per day). The next two over 1 million views were still doing well before the February glitch. Now all three plus some others in the 600,000 to 200,000 range are making no progress at this time.
Hi, friends,
On Friday, March 7, 2024, I reported that the number of views of my star photo increased to 6,082,733. Until now, March 30, 2024, the number of views has not changed. I felt something strange. Then, I checked the photo on Google Map. To my surprise, my star photo is no longer here. Has anyone experienced the same case as me? What should I do? Any suggestion?
@mbmuhlison I checked my top photos which are stalled, but they all seem to be still present on the relevant POIs. Not sure why yours would be missing or hidden. Let’s hope it would be a temporary issue.
@tony_b It’s very interesting to note that you are monitoring the photos above 35,000 views, I am curious, do you maintain a separate workbook for this and what interval do you update? I hope that your top 18 photos don’t end up as Red Stars. Thank you sharing the status.
@mbmuhlison I have checked my four most viewed photos (for which views are not gaining) and they are still displayed at the POI. Thank you for sharing your status.
