Fitbit not adding steps/mileage for manual workouts?

I've been using Fitbit since 2020. I have been putting in my manual workouts, which have always adjusted my steps/mileage for the day. 

Since last week, none of my treadmill workouts are changing my steps/mileage. I ran 5 miles today and didn't register any of it, even when I put in the distance in the app. It's said I've only walked 7 miles this entire week and I've programmed in over 20.

I uninstalled, re-installed, force closed, restarted my phone and my fitbit, but nothing's working.

Is anyone else having issues or know how to fix this?

When you say manual workouts do you mean you initiated it on your device or log it after the fact I to the app?

When I do my workouts at the gym, I have to manually put in the numbers cause the auto-tracking doesn't record correctly. I've been doing it this way since 2019/2020 with no problems.

But since last week, when I log in the treadmill/stairmaster work-outs, it won't update the metrics. It says I did the workout, will update my days of exercise, but won't change my steps/distance/calories for the day. 

Only started being a problem since last week. =(
