The new red green buttons on the main thread are great but there was one post today where neither work. I tried opening the post as well but still couldn't get either button to work.  https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6163273/e-03-06-win-a-6-course-dining-experience-at-six-by-nico-with-wine-pairing#latest

    If you look below the post it says
    This discussion has been closed.
    It may be due to the "03/06" end date.

    The comp actually closes 03/07 9am https://www.instagram.com/p/CCD7O8zF1A4/
    Normally the end date would be edited in this case, or if it was really past the end date it would be moved to Game Over.

    Good Morning,
    The "enter" and "skip" buttons were added to the main list yesterday and worked fine. Today they are not working at all for me. I've logged out and in and no difference.

    The competitions ending today have been closed, which means you can't press entered or skipped. The discusssion should only be closed on the day after, in my opinion, as you can still enter them today - those are the only ones I'm having issues with.

    That will explain it. Someone or something has closed competitions ending 01/07 too early whilst they are still open and valid.

    They're not all closed, probably a glitch, or testing

    I can only find two comps that end on 01/07 and have been closed. These are both comps that were posted on 30/06.
    @Misslayed It could be a glitch connected to the new End Date field so that it closes comps when they reach the specified end date. If so it needs to be made +1.
    ETA: I can only find one comp with end date of 30/06 in GO that has actually been closed and that was also posted on 30/06. (Honeybuns)
