Anyone tested this with WordPress 5.1?
Ta
Tried integrating mailchimp but the list won’t show up.
Is this just because the plugin hasn’t been updated in a while?
Any chance of an update/support for this?
This is kind of a “make or break” kind of thing for us.
Thanks ??
]]>Hi, I want to modify the form to only ask for the First Name instead of First and Last name.
This also needs to work with MailChimp, so as to only send First Name and Email Address.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
]]>Hi, I need to change these texts:
“Share the lucky link below and earn 5 more entries for every friend who enters with your custom link.”
“Click to Copy Your Lucky URL:”
“remaining”
You can see this in my screen shot: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1B9EA3XI_JiFEOf2cG0k8HHhZwfCgoltA/view?usp=sharing
I can’t find out where to edit this, I am even poking around in the Plugin folder files via FTP.
Thanks community! ??
]]>Using this plugin, its great but ive noticed one thing, I login as a user on the desktop answer some competitions and saves. If i go to do the same on mobile it does NOT remember that you answered that competition?
Anyone know of a way round this?
]]>The click to copy to clipboard feature wasn’t working for me after someone registered.
Not sure if this is a problem for others, but if it is, here is the code I wrote substituting the plugin’s own code:
echo '<h4>Click on link below to copy your Lucky URL:</h4>
<textarea readonly style="font-size: 1.2em; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; resize: none; width: 80%;white-space: normal;text-align: justify; -moz-text-align-last: center; text-align-last: center;" id="myTextarea" type="button" onclick="myFunction()">'.$ref_url.'</textarea>
<script>
function myFunction() {
document.getElementById("myTextarea").select();
var copysuccess // var to check whether execCommand successfully executed
try{
copysuccess = document.execCommand("copy") // run command to copy selected text to clipboard
} catch(e){
copysuccess = false
}
return copysuccess
}
</script>
';Hello guys,
Running PHP 7 I get an error message at the top of every page in the WP dashboard:
Warning: Declaration of cf_Table_Participants::extra_tablenav() should be compatible with WP_List_Table::extra_tablenav($which) in /home/clients/7627229/web/domain.com/wp-content/plugins/contestfriend/tables/table-participants.php on line 446
Cheers,
]]>We want to know if the plugin author has any plans to update this plugin?
Now to the issues, I’m facing.
1) The referral URL is using the server IP instead of the domain name.
Example: https://255.255.255.255/giveaway-page-slug/?ref=53894059090490
2) The site runs on https but the referral URL uses http.
]]>Hey love the plugin man, one thing i really need to add a custom field for an answer to a question, is this something we can do?
thanks

]]>Does anyone know how to change the submit button colors in ContestFriend?
I would also be grateful to know how to change the “Earn More Entries – Share the lucky link below and earn 3 more entries for every friend who enters with your custom link” text above the FB and Twitter icons.
Any advice gratefully received.
]]>Is there anyway to duplicate a contest? I thought I could use the plugin “Post Duplicator” but that doesn’t seem to see the Contest.
Anyway, it would save a lot of time. I’m hoping to not have to make a trip to the database directly.
Thanks!
]]>I’ve set up a contest: [contestfriend contest=”31720″]
Trying to enter it to test it but nothing happens?
No entry is registered, no email is received.
]]>Hi, I recently installed the plugin however I have run into sevreal issues:
– I didn’t get a follow up email or confirmation of entry
– It says that there are no participants in the giveaway
– My email address or details weren’t added to the database or mailchimp
Is there any way to turn off the double opt in for mailchimp? They’ve already opted in when signing up for the contest, but i’m seeing a pretty large gap between those that sign up and those that actually answer positively to the confirmation email from mailchimp.
Maybe this is obvious, but i’m not seeing this option anywhere, only an option to make entry to the actual contest double opt in.
]]>1. What goes into the “Linkedin Source” field? A url, or what?
2. The email sender field is already filled in with my email address. “contestfriend” <[email protected]>
How do I make it automatically fill in with a user’s email as he/she registers?
3. Will each new contestant automatically receive initial email and confirmation email (for double opt in, or do I have to send them manually?
4. After registering, will each contestant get a unique url to share? Is that how the app keeps up with shares? Does the contestant get entries according to how many times he/she shared the link, or how many times a unique user clicks on the shared link? I have to be able to fully explain this contest to my customers.
5. Is there a way to make the “before submit” and “after submit” description text different?
Thanks for your time!
Hi. I am working at setting up the ContestFriend plugin, but need a little help. I clicked on the “ContestFriend Plugin – User Documentation v1.0” link, but it turns up an error page.
Can you update the link or attach the documentation to the plugin page?
Thank you!
]]>Hi, I’m a total novice with websites so this could be a very simple issue that I have. Once I’ve entered in all the details of my competition in contestfriend etc. and I go to add the shortcode into one of the pages on the website, after I paste and publish the code, only the code as written shows up. Can anyone tell me why the code and not the actual pop up box is showing up? I’ve tried entering the code in both the visual and text boxes on wordpress and it’s the same result. Thanks.
The code is [contestfriend contest=”2314″] if that helps.
]]>Hello,
I need some help with this plugin.
How to make this plugin work for registered users only, with out them needing to enter their email they will just have to press a button and they will be added to the contest. Non resisted user will see a button that says register to join the contest.
Any help is appreciated.

]]>Is there a way to add entries manually in the backend?
]]>Can people enter the contest every day? I hope so! ?? If someone could please let me know ASAP, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!
]]>I have been trying to add an image into the contest and have the image in my media library but it never save the image into the contest widget. I can’t seem to figure it out.

]]>Hey!
Id like to change the Text that appears after you submitted your entry – which is
Earn More Entries!
Share the lucky link below and earn 1 more entry for every friend who enters with your custom link.
by default.
I cant find the line on the language file while translating it with POEdit.
How can i change it?

]]>If this plugin isn’t currently being supported and actively maintained, is there an option for me to adopt the plugin?
Please let me know at https://bradgriffin.me/contact-brad-griffin/
If anyone knows how to contact the author directly, please let me know as well.
Thanks!
]]>Hello
I really love this plugin (despite the fact that it’s not translated) but I came accross a problem with the way it looks.
The title of the box doesn’t appear (it seems to be below the cup icon instead of next to it)
The icons of social medias are not aligned on on line… there is one per line like this
instead of this
Facebook Twitter
]]>see my contest. pinterest and twitter work but if try to share on FB you get page not found… https://www.mojosavings.com/win-thanksgiving-dinner-mojosavings/
]]>Hi guys,
I would like to put the winners of my contest in a particular post.
I also prefer to do this automatically, so when the contest ends, it automatically shows up in a post.
Could someone help me with this please??
Thanks a ton!
]]>hi,
We rewrote some code to make this plugin even better for us.
Now it suddenly stopped working..?
When we participate in a contest it doesn’t write to the database anymore? (it did before!)
I have the exact same copy on 3 servers, nothing changed on 1 of them, and suddenly it doesn’t work on ANY of the 3 servers anymore.
yes, we tested it before we uploaded that copy to the 2 other servers, it worked just fine
does anyone know whats going on?
]]>Are we responsible to send out an email to the winners or does the plugin do it for us? If so, where can I edit the winner email template? If it is not built in, will it be a feature to add in in a future update? If it can pick the winners, surely it makes sense to email them as well with our custom template.
]]>hey guys don’t know if anyone reads this forum anymore but I’ve being having issue with setting up aweber auth code it gives a fatal erro on line 23 in aweber_response.php file.
