There are some posts in another thread that people are not getting stones from shrines yesterday or today.

They didnt break shrines, they broke the element of the day.

I confirmed that nothing is getting a bonus...crops, sanctuaries, houses, ballons and no stones from shrines.

I am not even getting the base 10% bonus.

This is a pretty huge bug.

I had the issue Friday, but it is working today.

I am getting Stones today.

I dont even have an element of the day anymore. It is just blank now.

Closed app and rebooted. Nothing.

I don't have the element of the day, yesterday show me that the element for today will be "magic", but I'm not getting bonus and no stones from shrines in any element, only gold from all of shrines.

No one is receiving them?

I am getting stones.

Only getting gold too.
Really annoying

If you tap the XP bar, does it tell you what the element of the day is?

Yes it does (Magic) but only gold from shrines and no bonus to crops/adventures

Mine briefly showed magic this morning, but no stones and no bonus. I closed and came back to a blank element of the day.

I have magic as the element of the day, but don't get stones either.

I have a blank element of the day and no stones. Which sucks because magic is my most productive day for crops and stones and extra gold. Pretty lame.

Are you guyson IOS or Andriod?

I have a blank element of the day and am on iOS.

On Android. Having issues with the element of the day as well.

I have a blank element of the day and am using iOS

I have this issue on both platforms. No bonuses, blank element of the day.

Well there goes my Idea. Mine is working correctly. :/

I deleted my app. Shut down the ipad then reinstalled the app. When I had a blank new game I had magic for element of the day. When I logged in and connected to my existing game it was broken again. I am out of ideas. Any suggestions?

2 days now.. Still no element of the day..

Now just, it's 00:15 in Spain, and shows me the day "fire" as always. I couldn't pick up stones yet because I haven't yet completed the time, but I tried to make a 1-minute adventure with fire-Skylander and I have already received the fire-bonus.
Seems to have fixed the problem.
Surely your game will fix when you change the day, I seems that happens to me (yesterday-saturday my game showed the element of the day broken.
I hope the game doesn't spoil again.

It will be interesting to see. My magic day started out ok but busted after 1 or two collections

10.33 am here. No magic yesterday, no fire today. IOS 7.

The same!!!! Now, don't work...
I can't pick up stones, I just returned from another adventure of 15 minutes with a fire skylander and now I can't get the fire-bonus (I'm sure before I could). In the iphone shows me the element of fire, but now I have just to recover the game from the iphone to the ipad, and don't shows me the element of the day. It's gone !!!!!

I think they did it on purpose, When you start the game and connect with Activision cloud, the glitch appear. So we'll probably until Monday. It bothers me a lot because my most productive days are magic and fire, not only by stones, but especially for crops and travel, I will lose a lot of money this weekend.

I'm getting gold instead of stones in my magic shrines today...

I like to think of the lack of an element of the day as a nondenominational holiday celebration. All elements are equal during the holidays!

Mine has been broken since yesterday on the iPad. Both days it showed the element of the day as fire and no stones. Sanctuaries are normally all money with the odd stone, only one stone today from one sanctuary, the rest were cash which I don't need. Hope it gets fixed soon!

Lack of acknowledgment from the developers leads me to think that they are away for the holidays. This is likely a bug that will be on for a while.

They have responded on Facebook so they know about it. Whether they can get it sorted before Christmas remains to be seen.

What is their Fb page?

What did they say?

ActivisionAssist.

They asked me if I was getting them from pillars but have not responded since.

That does not mean they are not reading posts.

Mine is now broken. :/

Actually I remembered yesterday as if I had two wish stones in the morning (I have two magic shrines), but later it disappeared (begun to give money instead) and I read it here that yours is broken as well so I doubted if I really had two stones or am as just stupid as regular. But today I got two stones from the two fire shrines too! And since the second "harvest", I get gold again.

So for the first time they yield the stones every day, then it breaks again.

I have 7 shrines, 4 of them magic and fire, so that's bad for me

I am seeing the same thing. The first time I collect from the shrines each day the element of the day shrines give wish stones. After that, there is no element of the day. Happened yesterday and again today.

Yesterday, I started out with magic as the element of the day, but none of the elements were glowing in the list of Skylanders, which means the element of the day wasn't activating. Throughout the day I noticed that it would change elements and sometimes even give me the blank element. Since they went ahead and programmed in the next two weeks worth of updates, I figure they are out for the holidays.

I looked on the facebook page and only saw them respond once. It seemed to be more of a response from someone in their social media department. They probably just passed it on to the developers who are probably out for the holidays. I haven't seen them respond to any other posts/comments. They haven't recognized the issue. I wouldn't get my hopes up that it will be fixed anytime soon.

It's a weird bug......sometimes my shrines give me the stones then I login later and it's back to just gold. I'm not sure what the trigger is.

The element of the day seems to be randomly generating, including a non-existent element of the day. I think that if you happen to get an element of the day when your shrines are available for collecting, then you will get the wish stones. I noticed I was randomly getting them, but on shrines that weren't the element of the day (which was magic at the beginning of the day, yesterday). I later realized I was getting a random element of the day when I would go back to the game. I haven't fully tested my theory on when shrines produce stones, but that makes sense to me.

I also got a couple of stones the first time now I am getting gold.

try this:
leave your shrines, your crops and your balloons adventures with the next day element (morning I think it's magic) "ready for pick up after midnight". At 11:55, for example, you enter the game and let change your day while you're playing. You will get up stones on the shrine and you'll get the bonus of the day's element in your crops and adventures.

I think I figured out how the element of the day breaks. I experimented this morning by planting for 1 minute (water being he element for today) to see if I got the element bonus. I had also successfully gotten wish stones from my shrines already.

Anyway, each time I planted, I would do something different and then collect a single crop to see if the bonus was still intact. I was able to collect from houses, collect from sanctuaries, send gifts, and receive gifts while still collecting the element bonus from crops. But as soon as I visited one friend's kingdom, the bonus disappeared. The friend I chose lives in my house, so he had the same element for today as I had. Had the bonus stayed, I next would have visited a kingdom from someone in a different time zone to see if that broke it.

So, looks like we get a choice of getting the element bonus or visiting other kingdoms. Oh, as of right now, I still show water as the element of the day. If things stay as they were yesterday, I am sure that will go blank shortly.

It breaks when the game starts with blue screen: when you exit the game completely, visiting friends .....

Thanks for the clarification. Looks like my wish stone supply will be down a bit going into January, but I still have more than enough to snag the new alter ego. Hope they fix this soon.

Thanks for working that out.

I seem to be getting enough from sanctuaries, totems and gifts and have just clocked up 1,000 gems for Diggs.

While my legendaries are busy on other tasks I don't need more halls but they would be nice.

I might alternate my days depending on how things are going. I should not have thrown so many stones in the well.

No stones or bonuses for me.

I am not sure thats the cause as I do not do either of those and I have no element of the day.

What fixes it, is to turn on airplane mode and change the day then change it back. This prevents the game from phoning home. The two things you mention also trigger the game to phone home.

I am not getting any stones or bonuses. When I log in the first time for the day it will show which element is the element of the day. The second time on it is blank.

"Phoning home" makes sense to me too. Most days I've seen an element of the day as soon as midnight hits, but then it almost instantly goes away - I haven't collected a wish stone from a shire or received any bonuses at all since this glitch started. This morning (midnight) I didn't even see the element of the day at all, but I did notice it save to cloud while the gift of the day screen was still displaying.

When you say the element instantly goes away, does your game just quit itself and then start with the blue screen? I'm almost sure it's at that moment when the element of the day is broken. If you manage to keep the game open when changing day, the game shows the new element and it stays (long as the game does not restart).
Sorry, I would be able to explain it better ...

Today, I was in the game when midnight struck, and no new element of the day was presented.

It did save to the cloud when the gift of the day screen was displayed, so I thought maybe the save to the cloud wiped it out before I even saw it. But maybe it was just because I had no previous element of the day to replace, and had the app open at the time.

Oh well, in any case, it's still broken.
