All Challenges and Ongoing Challenges count is incorrect and Ongoing Challenges does not return all Ongoing Challenges

[Oanh-and-only-Oanh]

Bug:
The count on the All Challenges filter is not accurate.

How to reproduce:

1. go to https://staging-community-app.topcoder.com/challenges?
2. Turn off all track filters except for QA track
3. click on All Challenges filter
4. See that count is 22 but only 2 challenges show

@LieutenantRoger , the ongoing challenges bucket is missing some of the challenges
example when u filter by few tracks. See comparison with prod

@rootelement

Could you take a look if I have used the correct filter when fetching challenge data

'All Challenges' count: Request URL: https://api.topcoder-dev.com/v5/challenges/?status=Active&isLightweight=true&perPage=1&tracks[]=Dev&tracks[]=Des&tracks[]=DS&tracks[]=QA

'Ongoing Challenges': Request URL: https://api.topcoder-dev.com/v5/challenges/?status=Active&currentPhaseName=Submission&perPage=10&page=1&sortBy=updated&sortOrder=desc&tracks[]=Dev&tracks[]=Des&tracks[]=DS&tracks[]=QA

The count numbers are retrieved from the response x-total field.

[rootelement]

That looks fine, but you don't need to include the tracks if you want them all on... unless that's an artifact of the switches in the ui. Either way is fine.

[rootelement]

The second query you could use isLightweight and only retrieve 1 like you are in the first one for it to be faster, but that's also not required.

[LieutenantRoger]

@rootelement the second query will retrieve the 10 ongoing challenge, and the total ongoing challenge as well, so need to use perPage=10 :)

@Oanh-and-only-Oanh @rootelement ,I believe there are some gaps between server side filters and client side filters(old way), hence the discrepancy above.

[LieutenantRoger]

@rootelement please take a look at the discrepancy above. The request is correctly sent, but the total number seems not correct.

[ThomasKranitsas]

Maybe this has been fixed? Buckets seem to work fine on my end

[rootelement]

The decision is to remove this bucket, because it's not useful to members, and it's covered by the All Challenges bucket.
