When I click on "Challenges" under the menu button (three lines top left corner) there's a button that says "Join a challenge" however when I click that button it says "No challenges available" ....how do I join a challenge???

Go to the dialogue box next to the bell.

Click on forums.

Click on challenges.

Good luck!

I am in the 10 day challenge one but that is just a forum post.

Some are small challenges, some are bigger. Some are formal, some are informal.

You can also go to groups and do a search there for challenges.

What exactly are you looking for?

So I can only join challenges in the forum's? Not under the challenge tab to earn achievements or badges?

I see the forum groups called challenges and I am in the just give me 10 days challenge but I don't see how I can earn badges or achievements thru a forum. When I click on the menu (3 lines top left corner) and go down to challenges it says no challenges available. When I click on the trophy in the top right corner it says no achievements, join a challenge...when I click join a challenge it says no challenges available...it's a vicious cycle! How do you earn badges and achievements if you can't join a challenge??

I’m not sure if there are any active MFP challenges right now—but I’ll say the ones I’ve seen thus far haven’t been completely motivating...the last one I know was the Michelobe Ultra challenge which was basically to log like 10 workouts and then also log drinking the beer...they all seem to be sponsored by companies and involve consuming product. I don’t drink anymore—so it wasn’t a helpful one. I think you’ll find much more helpful challenges on the boards with folks to help keep you accountable!

I get notifications of the badges challenges on my home page. I'm not involved in those. That's why I didn't think of it.

One involved drinking beer. One involved eating cereal. I don't consume either.

Are you using a computer? I know you can't join non-forum challenges unless you use the mobile app. That one got me quite a few times.

I only have the app. Does location effect it? I'm in Canada and I saw something about certain challenges only being available in the US but the info was from 2017.

Ok thanks everyone. I'll keep waiting I guess. I would like to do a steps challenge or a daily log challenge or something motivating like being within goal range...know what I mean lol I don't drink and I am gluten free so eating/drinking challenges don't interest me 😔

Honestly, if there is one you want to do and get a group together, create a post about it. Lead a challenge if it doesn’t exist—that will super motivate you!

Has anyone ever won anything from the challenges?

LyndaBSS

If you see challenges in the forums that say the winner gets money or a gym membership, etc., they're just spam.
