Major Update did not bump game to the top of "Most Recent" or "New & Popular"

Hi!

I am still pretty new to itch.io, and I know you probably get questions like this all the time, so thank you in advance for your time and help!

I published a Major Update for my game 24 hours ago, but the visibility bump did not trigger, so the game didn't get pushed to the top of the "Most Recent" or "New & Popular" feeds. However, I am already seeing games that were updated just an hour ago getting their visibility push, so it seems like my update might be stuck in the manual approval queue.

It has been more than 30 days since I first uploaded my game, and I have made a lot of edits and improvements to it, so the latest version should be fully eligible for the visibility push.

Could a moderator please check the queue and help get the update triggered?

No, all I can do is let our admins know, but not all major updates put your game back on top!

Thank you for passing this to the admins. Just to clarify, do you mean there's a chance the admins won't give it any visibility bump at all, or just that a top spot isn't guaranteed?

Both.

I’m experiencing the same issue.

I recently published a major update for my game (v0.2), but it still hasn’t been indexed. It also hasn’t appeared at the top of the Most Recent or New & Popular feeds as I expected after the update.

Could you please look into this? Thank you!
