4,107 PointsMissing points in courses?
I always seem to be missing some points in my courses. Do Extra credit give you points? Is it forum points I am missing? I always make sure I get 100% on the quizzes and challenges. Any feed back would be very much appreciated. Just a completionist not a point whore xD.

If you truly believe that you are missing the points that you justly deserve, I would contact the Treehouse support staff to look into your problem. You can contact support by clicking the "contact support" link to the right of this post under Have technical questions? section. They will be more than happy to assist you in your point problem.
Cheers!

11,091 PointsI actually have a similar question. I don't know that they are "missing" as opposed to not knowing how to earn them.
I upgraded the Front End developer tracks yesterday and I saw there were changes, so I went back to the previous completed lessons and it didn't seem like I'm missing any steps and it still lists as completed, but the points aren't fully reached. For example, the first lesson "How to Make a Website", my progress bars are full and all the steps are still completed, but I only have 618 out of 658 points.
I don't think it's affecting how this website tracks my progress, so it's not a big deal not getting all the points, but the perfectionist in me is niggling at me to find out how to get them all :)

4,107 PointsI just finished CSS Layout Techniques and I am 24 points short of the max points. This course as no extra credit to do, its a mystery to me where I could get the remaining points from.

Courses Plus Student 14,333 PointsI have a similar issue. Is it possible that you can only earn the extra credit by building in workshop?

14,201 PointsAfter looking through my profile, I had the same question! I'm happy that I'm not the only one who realized this. I thought it might be from not passing some of the quizzes on the first try but I'm not sure, nor can I find a solution online.
