Troubleshooting #

If you encounter issues while using PrizeSuite, the following troubleshooting steps can help identify and resolve the most common problems.

Giveaway Product Not Working #

If a giveaway product does not appear or does not behave as expected:

• Make sure the product is published and not saved as a draft.
• Verify the campaign start and end dates are correctly configured.
• Ensure the product is configured as a giveaway campaign in the Product Data section.
• Check that the campaign has available entries remaining.

Customers Cannot Enter the Giveaway #

If customers cannot purchase entries or participate:

• Confirm the giveaway campaign is currently active.
• Check that the product price and entry limits are properly configured.
• Verify that the WooCommerce checkout process is functioning normally.
• Make sure users are logged in if your settings require login for participation.

Tickets Not Appearing #

If tickets are not being generated after purchase:

• Verify the order status is set to Processing or Completed.
• Check that ticket generation is enabled for the campaign.
• Review the PrizeSuite → Entries section in the admin panel.

Winner Not Displayed #

If the winner is not visible after the campaign ends:

• Ensure the campaign end date has passed.
• Check the PrizeSuite → Winners section in the admin dashboard.
• Confirm that winner selection has been completed.

Frontend Layout Issues #

If the giveaway page layout appears incorrect:

• Verify that the custom giveaway product page layout is enabled in settings.
• Clear any caching plugins or server cache.
• Check if your WordPress theme overrides WooCommerce templates.

Plugin Conflicts #

Conflicts with other plugins may sometimes affect PrizeSuite functionality.

To identify a conflict:

1. Temporarily deactivate other plugins.
2. Test the giveaway functionality again.
3. Reactivate plugins one by one to identify the source of the conflict.

Enable WordPress Debug Mode #

If you continue to experience issues, enabling WordPress debugging may help identify the source of the problem.

Add the following lines to your wp-config.php file:

define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false);

Debug messages will then be recorded in the /wp-content/debug.log file.
