widget counters not clearing

[manilx]

@manilx After approx 30mins I checked and the 2 cron entries have again disappeared!

[manilx]

@manilx If I change widget clear counters to weekly the 2 respective cron jobs stay. If I set it to daily they are created but disappear after a few minutes.

@BBcan177 Looks like a bug somewhere to me.

@manilx Spoke to soon: The cron entries also disappear after I set it to clear weekly (bu stayed longer there).

So in a nutshell: feature is broken as the cron jobs are somehow deleted......

@manilx Can anyone confirm or not confirm this? Wonder if I'm the only one using this.

Not my issue.

But correlated ...

[manilx]

@fireodo Perhaps....
Wonder why developer is not responding lately. Hope he's OK.

I think he is aware of the problematic but maybe he has more important things to do - this is annoying but not something that impacts the main functionality of pfBlockerNG - IMHO
@BBcan177 and also annoying is that autosort in DNSBL is not working
PS. You should mention on what pfsense version it occures.

[manilx]

@fireodo pfsense Plus 22.05

[manilx]

@BBcan177 Installed 23.01 on my 8200, rfemoved -devel and installed release pfblockerng.

This issues still happens. I add daily to both the clear counter fields in the widget, check that 2 cron entries are added. And after a minute or so they are again gone.

@manilx Issue is fixed in pfblockerng 3.2.0_3

I am experiencing this same issue even on 23.05+ and the latest release of pfBlockerNG 3.2.0_5. When the widget is enabled to clear the daily counters, the blocks get cleared, but not the queries which skews the percentages. Even if I clear them manually from the widget, sometimes I have to do it multiple times to get the actual query count to clear. To be fair, this has always been an issue since I started using pfSense about 9 months ago (22.05+, 23.01+, and now 23.05+).

I reported this before, but no one ever responded. Not the end of the world. The one feature I miss having from Pi-hole is the default view of the last 24 hours of activity on the main screen.
