Learning / planting session order is broken!

Same here, hoping for a fix soon. :slight_smile:

I can only hope this is a bug and it will be fixed soon. As it is, it completely kills the functionality of learning new words.

I’m pleased I haven’t paid for PRO, which I was considering, as this completely destroys one of the main benefits of this site.

Thanks! Just a question: are you a super-user or mod? Just wondering how you were able to edit my post. (No issues with it, just wondering about admin rights :grinning: )

Still an issue ? Damn guess it’s review only day for me today.

The same is happening today :frowning:

@BeaTrisy, can you please take a look at this thread?

She just posted Review broken again?

"Hello all,

Thank you so much for your feedback over the last few weeks. This will hopefully be the last update, so let’s get to it:

Pressing Escape/“See answer” during a test should no longer be count the answer as wrong
We’ve tweaked the learning algorithm to introduce words more gradually in sessions.
Thank you again for your patience and Happy Learning!"

Don’t know if that means she’s acknowledging the change or has reverted it back. Will test in an hour.

Yeah, it says they tweaked the learning algorithm :frowning: I think this explains what is happening here :frowning:

I just completed a learning session and didn’t notice anything strange (certainly not the behavior described in this topic), so I think it might be fixed. Hopefully :slight_smile:

I will try again a new planting session and see what happens. Thanks ^^

Sorry for the confusion.
This is a bug that somehow made it’s way into the wild.

The most recent release should fix all these issues.
If you’re still having problems with the new algorithm, please let us know.

Yeah, everything is working again ^^ thanks :smiley:

Works fine now, thank you.

“regular” status, no"admin"… there are more than 150 regulars in here, probably

I think some of the elements of the bug haven’t been fixed.

My settings are set to learn 5 words a session, so the way it was before the bug is that 6 views per word, 30 views in total, 20 points per correct word, you get a bonus of 600 points for getting 100% accuracy.

Right now (as was the case this morning when the rest of the bug was happening) it is only showing me 4 words per learning session, so you only get 480 points for viewing 4 words 6 times correctly, 24 times in total.

Can someone copy in an admin as afraid I don’t know how. Cheers!

Are you also only being shown 4 words a session (or one less than your usual amount?) It means far fewer points, as well as being too easy/ boring? Or was that a problem for you early but it’s better now? Still not working properly for me…

@BeaTrisy Should investigate your problem report, but I assume that their London office is now closed for the evening, so you probably won’t get an answer until tomorrow at the earliest.

But how can a ‘regular’ status user edit another user’s post? I don’t have that ability.

I’m just interested because that seems like a very strange system-level entitlement feature unless I’m missing something or misunderstanding a term.

Thanks for copying her in. Yes that’s fair enough, based in the UK myself, just thought it was worth bringing it up while it’s fresh and other people have recently been active. So no-one else is having that problem? It affecting all the different courses I’ve done new word learning sessions on throughout today, both before and after bug fix was announced, so assume it’s part of the same bug.

For whatever it’s worth, I just tried it and did a learning session on the web, set to 10 words per session, and it showed me all 10 words during the session. So it looks like I’m not experiencing the bug that you’re seeing.
