I can’t get the numbers to update

I couldn’t get the numbers to update on the front-end unless I turned the setting “Products Data Update Options” to “Realtime”. Which, I didn’t really want to do that. I confirmed that cron jobs were working properly on my site as well.

Examples numbers that weren’t updating:

[product_total_orders_sum before="Total Sum: " after=""]
[product_crowdfunding_goal before="Goal: " after=""]

Then I went to the code and dug around and found that in the “clas-wc-crowdfunding.php” file in the “update_products_data” function that the WP_Query is looking for the “_alg_crowdfunding_products_data_updated_time’ meta key and when I went to look for that meta key in the post meta table it wasn’t there. That’s why none of the numbers were being updated in the database because it was looking for a non-existent meta key.

I changed the meta key that the wp_query was looking for to just “_alg_crowdfunding_enabled” and then it started working. Now, from now on it’s creating the “_alg_crowdfunding_products_data_updated_time” meta key so it’s working like normal now.
