How to Make Partiko Work Again, and Partiko Points Giveaway!

in announcement •  6 years ago 

Hello Partiko lovers,

Some Partiko users are experiencing issues with Partiko today, where they can't load content normally and their Partiko Points are not correctly reflected after watch ads.

We would like to report to you that this is an internet-wide issue caused by Cloudflare and a lot of other services are affected as well. The founder of Partiko @crypto.talk was unable to make food orders on Doordash because of this!

What's the issue?

The issue is that the API response from Cloudflare includes wrong header, and makes Partiko mistakenly cache the response on the device. That's why a lot of people can't see their latest post even after refresh.

We have fixed the issue, but you need to do one little more step

To fix the issue, we have already went ahead and stopped using Cloudflare. If you were asleep while this happened, chances are that you won't even be affected.

However, if you are still seeing the issue, here's how to fix it:

For Partiko Android users, you can fix it by clearing the cache:

For Partiko iOS users, unfortunately there's no option to clear the cache. Therefore you would need to uninstall Partiko and reinstall it to fix the issue.

1000 Points giveaway for affected users

Although this is not our mistake, we feel deeply sorry for your loss. Therefore, if you have experienced the issue and have to go through the steps above to fix it, we will be more than happy to send you 1000 Points to make up for your loss!

Please kindly resteem this post, so the other affected users can see it

Thank you so much for your understanding!

Together, let's change the world.

Onwards and upwards,
Partiko Team

It's working now. Thanks for all the effort you guys are doing! I haven't cleared the cache and is working fine, if I have issues I know what to do. Keep it up!

Posted using Partiko Android

The cache I cleared was "only 90mb" what do you guys keep in there? :p

Posted using Partiko Android

Hello! Thanks for the question! That's photo cache.

Posted using Partiko Android

reinstalled as well

Posted using Partiko Android

Sorry about the inconvenience!

Posted using Partiko Android

no worries.. we don't live in a perfect world.

Posted using Partiko Android

I was greatly affected because I was actually having a conversation in the comment section of a post. Suddenly, I couldn't access replies or new notifications in general. Felt like electricity cut :)

Posted using Partiko Android

Really sorry about that!

Posted using Partiko Android

No problem. Onwards and Upwards with Partiko!

Posted using Partiko Android

Reinstall worked thanks folks felt lost without it

Really sorry for your loss!

Posted using Partiko Android

Yup still affected. Thanks for the solution. Will go clear cache now..

Posted using Partiko Android

Reinstall worked!!

Posted using Partiko iOS

OK! Sorry about the inconvenience!

Posted using Partiko Android

No worries. Glad it is back. Started getting used to the app. Miss it when it’s gone.

Posted using Partiko iOS

No wonder.. I thought my line wasn't good😂 just clear the cache.. Thanks for the info😊

Posted using Partiko Android

Oh! I had this problem twice last night! The points for watching all the advertisements did not come up!
And the App just stopped working. So, I had to delete the App and reinstall twice last night and once this morning.

I hope this problem is behind us and that things will be as smooth as usual.

Thank you for informing us about the causes of this strange freeze up of the App. And for offering to compensate those who have suffered some losses.

All the best!
Reblogged for my friends.

Posted using Partiko iOS

Thank you for the update

Posted using Partiko iOS

Okay...resteem..

Posted using Partiko Android

Thank you it's fixed.

Posted using Partiko Android

Need to uninstall I guess. I had watched a couple ads and did not receive any points was wondering what was going on. Thanks for addressing the issue right away and the 1,000 points for the inconvenience that is awesome of you guys.

Posted using Partiko iOS

Sorted now thank you :)

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks for the important update 🌹

Posted using Partiko Android

The issue still appearing....

Posted using Partiko Android

Could you tell us what issue you are still having? Thanks!

Posted using Partiko Android

Had to reinstall
Working now

Posted using Partiko iOS

I quickly went on Discord to see what was going on. Thanks for updating us, everything works fine again for me now.

Posted using Partiko iOS

Oh man! This is the problem. Thanks for the update. I'm experiencing it too. I only can see my post on Steemit page not partiko. But still receive comment and vote updates from partiko for that post.

Hi guys I have cleared my cache, and it seems to work again. I'm just not getting notifications from the app any more?

Posted using Partiko Android

You should get notifications. Did this one work?

Posted using Partiko Android

I get notifications as in, if I go to the notifications section I can see any new comments, up votes etc. But I don't get "notified" that this has happened, even though my notifications are switched on and not muted...

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks @partiko. I have been facing this issue but thanks for the important update.

Posted using Partiko Android

Actually, I've had a problem from day one, but it wasn't the point system. Every time I reply, the app says I've "timed out". Then it makes me think that I didn't reply because it doesn't show up. And so I reply again, and then take a look, and there are two replies!

Posted using Partiko Android

This should have been fixed a while ago. Are you still seeing this issue?

Posted using Partiko Android

Yes, I am still seeing the error message 8 out of 10 times. I'm using a LG V20 cell phone. So I copy the message before sending it, or I have to rewrite again sometimes.

Posted using Partiko Android

Got it! Which country are you located in, if you don't mind telling us?

Posted using Partiko Android

Resteemed it now.

Posted using Partiko iOS

Es como una gran oportunidad y a la vez es una significativa competencia.

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks for this @partiko. I was wondering what the problem was lol. I had problems with voting also. Reeeeesteeeeeeemed!

Yes I usually always clear my cache every alternate day, but this morning even with cache cleared I was not able to check in or earn points until about an hour ago. Sigh.

Posted using Partiko Android

Really sorry about the inconvenience!

Posted using Partiko Android

Thank you for efficiency

Will you consider implementing option of transferring Partiko points to another Partiko user in future?

That explains why it is not working on iOS. To remove the program and add again?

Posted using Partiko iOS

Have you tried it?

Posted using Partiko Android

Not yet I think I need to. I see notifications on lock screen but listing I don’t see any until after many times pull down refresh

Posted using Partiko iOS

Test again. After delete and install.

Posted using Partiko iOS

After done that now working.

Posted using Partiko iOS

Thanks for the update! Really sorry about the inconvenience!

I resteem this post partiko today morning time I face problem but this time all is well I appreciate my personal felling better app for me.

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks! Resteemed it

Posted using Partiko iOS

Had a lot of issues with it to be fair this morning but have cleared the cache and hopefully that gets it going again.

Posted using Partiko Android

Did it work?

Posted using Partiko Android

Still having a few delays trying to comment or vote but notifications and posts are working fine again.

I can use all of the apps features again but need sometimes trying to comment or vote it takes a few tries for it to be accepted.

Posted using Partiko Android

Comment and vote delays are usually caused by the Steem network being busy. Thank you so much for letting us know!

Posted using Partiko Android

While the original problem cleared up for me, I can't now get confirmation of my posts and reward claims. Instead, I get timeouts. My posts are then visible to me and I get messages that I've already claimed my rewards.

Posted using Partiko Android

Another problem: When I try to make a new post, Partiko sends me to edit my previous post. BTW, my rewards now show as claimed.

Posted using Partiko Android

Hello! You can clear your previous post so that you can make a new one. Let us know if it works for you!

Posted using Partiko Android

Thank you for the info

Posted using Partiko Android

Cache clearing fixed my balance, but my history isn't updating yet.

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks for this guys, really made a difference 👌 keep up the amazing work I hope @crypto.talk was finally able to order some food, lol 🍔

Posted using Partiko Android

Thank you so much! Really sorry about the inconvenience!

Posted using Partiko Android

It worked, thanks so much guys.

Posted using Partiko Android

No worries! Thank you so much for your patience!

Posted using Partiko Android

Great Help!! Thanks a lot!!!

Posted using Partiko Android

Of course! Really sorry about the inconvenience!

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks for the quick response, fast fix & update, and overall great communication. I feel like I'm a fanboy of you guys because of how many times I gush over how great you all are doing.
But I guess that's just the thing, keep doing great stuff & I'll keep saying how great you all are haha 😂

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks for the info and giving us a workaround - I wondered what was wrong yesterday. You guys are on the ball with keeping us updated! I thought I wasn't affected, but today I see that the comments I made last night using Partiko did not post, and are not on the blockchain today. Guess I'll do the clear cache thing now.

Sure thing! Really sorry about the inconvenience!

Posted using Partiko Android

Issues or not, Partiko is awesome! I couldn’t load new notifications and posts yesterday but is working fine now.

Posted using Partiko iOS

Thank you so much for the update! Really sorry about the inconvenience!

Posted using Partiko Android

:) No problem! You guys are awesome. I look forward to Partiko's notification everyday on my mobile :D

I think your App still has some problems. I just watched two advertisements on games but there were no bonus points to my account.

I think something just got hank!

Posted using Partiko iOS

This happens sometime and has nothing to do with the cloudflare issue.

You can try to close the app, close it in background and reopen it.

Let us know if it works for you!

Posted using Partiko Android

No. It doesn’t work for iPhone, perhaps.
I think I know what happens now: the box was saying ‘one more left’, i played the same old vid three times but there was no notification about 50 points earned!
That free bonus box is not being updated! I have already played all the 10 videos! So, it should say ‘come back in .....seconds’

Hope this is making some sense!?
Something not complete with the software code!?

Cheers.

Posted using Partiko iOS

The free point box should be updated after you finish watch a video. If that's not the case, you can try to uninstall and reinstall Partiko. That will fix the issue. And you only need to do it one time.

Really sorry about the inconvenience!

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks for your reply. Hope iPhone can post more than one photo soon and the date-time of posting can be real time soon.

Cheers

Posted using Partiko iOS

I had to uninstall it and then reinstall it, working fine now!

Posted using Partiko Android

Glad to see the issue resolved so fast. I need my #Partiko points!

Posted using Partiko Android

Posted using Partiko iOS

I. experienced it yesterday for how many couple of hours. This time, it's OK.

Posted using Partiko Android

Hi @partiko
I cleared the cache on my Samsung S8 but it is still not possible to click the 'free points' button with '10 times left'.... it just makes a red dot appear and disappear in the top right corner of the box. Any ideas?

Were you able to see the ads before?

Posted using Partiko Android

Yes

Working for me!

Posted using Partiko Android

Congratulations @partiko!

Did not worked mobile today but as a partiko supporter I did my resteem, while sipping a beer and thinking of next #BeerSaturday

Had lots of problems with this yesterday. I ended up using the Steemit website for the first time in ages. Ewww.

Posted using Partiko iOS

Hope things are OK now!

Posted using Partiko Android

Yep. All fine. Hey, have you thought about introducing a flag/ downvote option into Partiko? Sometimes I just need to hit someone with a negative vote.

Posted using Partiko iOS

My problem is that all posts are loaded well but I do not get any partiko ads any more
No ads showing to me nearly three or four days. I do not get even a single ads so my partiko points are humble.

Posted using Partiko Android

I just downloaded it and it is working great. I don’t really have a lot of steem but I will delegate once I get more

Gonna do it now 😎

Posted using Partiko Android

Reinstall worked thanks! Some strange issues happening lately with hosted servers.
