Hi admin,

 

i just want to ask why i can't see my design in a contest that i participate?

i never received any notification, the CH never blocked me

no matter how i refresh and filter the designers my name never appeared

i just realize this when i check the finalization to know who is the winner

may i know what's the reason why this happening? thank you!

 

regards,

hidden eye

In this contest there are no your designs at all - nothing on your profile or the contest. Looks like you never uploaded them.

Btw, this contest was probably a fraud contest.

Hello Babba i uploaded my designs and it was #207 and #208 i can see it in my design page

even if we say it is a fraud contest but need to pay attention to this kind of problem

because we don't know it might win one of your design in a legit contest

but because of this problem the winning percentage of your design drop to 0%

because the contest holder might not see your entries and your are expecting

that all your submitted designs seen by the contest holder.

 

if it is a bug, hope the admin will fix this so it won't happen to other designers

Ooops sorry, I do see it on your profile... I missed it. 

Yes, they are also in the contest, but for some reason your name is not listed on contest Filter Designers (tab on the right).

I checked couple of contests and in few of them your name does not appear in that tab. Strange.

The issue seems to be with the space in your username. URLs don’t handle spaces well, and different websites handle them in various ways, which can cause linking problems. For example, on the forum, when you hover over your name, the link that appears in the bottom bar is:

 

https://www.designco...t.com/designer/hidden-eye/, and clicking it doesn’t work because the actual link to your profile is:
 

https://www.designco...t.com/designer/hidden+eye/.

 

In general, it's best to avoid spaces in usernames. URLs can't process spaces directly, and websites handle them differently, which can result in broken links or errors. Consider using an underscore or hyphen instead of a space to prevent this issue.

 

You can ask admins to change it.

Ramsro, it occured to me that maybe the space or dash was a problem, or perhaps if designer changed user name, but I am still confused how that theory doesn't work in every contest - some contest do show designer's name, some don't. 

Maybe it various also with url even when on same platform?

I'm not entirely sure why this is happening, but we can investigate further.

I see this contest is in Finalization stage, and its Gold awarded entry is missing (it sure has been removed by mods for a reason!) does this entry belong to you @hidden eye?

How many entries did you submit? I only see two by scrolling down entries page.

 

The fact that you didn't receive notification is another 'old' issue; until it is fixed, you need to click "Follow" the contest after each entry you submit. because it does automatically "unfollow" the contest after each time you submit an entry!

Prisma, winning design is hidden because it shows as fraud, and it was not HiddenEye's. It has nothing to do with the issue that HiddenEye has... it is probably as Ramsro explained. I do not see any other reason.
