I’ve recently start back on Zwift after a summer away.
I reset my zwift and intervals ftp to the same number.
I used to get a nice purple star in intervals when I got a ftp increase in zwift, for some reason that’s not happening now? Has something changed?
I had strava, zwift and google fit connections to my intervals account.
thanks
That was the wrong conclusion you drew. The purple star appears when you have achieved an all-time or best season value (best power over a certain duration). This has nothing to do with Zwift. Until now, this probably meant a new personal best for you: purple star on intervals + new FTP on Zwift. Only if you now achieve a new FTP on Zwift, it doesn’t have to be a best power on Intervals.
However, you can start a new season in the settings. Then the best power for this season will be “reset” and you can collect new purple stars, even if the best power is lower than the all time best power 
Just a friendly reminder that an all-time personal best will be assigned as “new season best power” 
Whoops - my bad.
It’s been that long since I had a purple i got mistaken. I’ve reset the season as suggested and I’m seeing the purple stars for the best of season (sooooo much lower than last season 
)
But - it’s still the ftp increase that aren’t showing.
I reset my ftp to a low number before i restarted this season so I expect I’ll be getting a few more over the next few weeks.
I’ll keep an eye out and report back.
But thanks for the reply and advice 
The red star is only coming if your activity FTP is higher than your eFTP (! Not FTP).
So if your eFTP is still higher as your current “real” FTP, you don’t get the red award
At the moment I think there is no way to manual reduce your eFTP.
Boom.. you’re spot on, just checked. eFTP is indeed higher than my ftp..
So, all i need to do to see the little red dot of pain is to increase my ftp enough to overtake my eftp
Fun (painful) times
Thanks again
