Llyarden Posted April 24, 2023 Clone Share Posted April 24, 2023 (edited) How do I get my game out of the advertisements list? I don't want to make the game itself non-public because that would stop people who've already posted apps working on them, but I don't want any new people starting applications. I'd assumed it would automatically get removed after the date it was supposed to expire on (23rd April - ie yesterday) but it seems to still be there. EDIT: And...it just randomly changed to closed? And as soon as I swapped it back so people could see it the ad reappeared. EDIT 2: Okay I guess this is a bug report now, so for some more context - it was (and indeed still is) set to expire on 23rd April. At somewhere between 1100 and about 1600 EST on 24th April, the game switched itself to Closed. (Separately, I'm pretty sure I didn't have it as Closed when I opened the ad, I thought I'd set it to Read Only, but whatever). Because I wanted people to still be able to participate without joining, I changed it back to Public, and the ad is once again back in the ad list - I didn't actually think to check whether it vanished while the game was Closed, but it was certainly still there after 23rd April.

Eric Posted April 24, 2023 Clone Share Posted April 24, 2023 @Llyarden - Split to a separate thread. Part 1: Looks like a bug. The advertisement list shows anything where the close date is >= 1 day before today's date. It should just be >. Part 2: The daily cleanup of open advertisements just occurred, which explains the automatic status change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llyarden Posted April 24, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted April 24, 2023 Hmm...does that mean that my game is going to be swapped to Closed again tomorrow, if the system goes 'oh hey this ad shouldn't be here' and cleans up my ad tomorrow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Posted April 24, 2023 Clone Share Posted April 24, 2023 Correct, unless I get This feature request resolved tonight (which seems unlikely). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llyarden Posted April 24, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted April 24, 2023 Okay well at least I know it's going to happen. I don't suppose you know exactly when it will happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Posted April 25, 2023 Clone Share Posted April 25, 2023 Probably about the same time of day, since it’s set to run “daily”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
