Piglins are not always attracted to gold ingots/gold items
I dropped a couple of gold ingots around a piglin.
What I expected to happen was...:
The piglin would follow the gold ingots.
What actually happened was...:
The piglin lost interest.
Steps to Reproduce:
Find/Spawn a piglin.
Drop a couple of gold ingots.
According to MCPE-72088 this seems to be related to piglins not being able to notice gold items at different Y-levels.

they made it so if you left click on them while holding the golden nugget they trade with you
No, that's not true
Piglin's are only attracted to the gold ingot if it's in the piglin's line of sight. What you did was, you put the gold ingot one block below, and the Piglin couldn't see it.
Even then he's not always attracted. That's the bug here.
in fact piglins don't trade whit anything item of gold regardless of whether the gold item was dropped or right-clicked, even with gold nuggets they just shake their heads down but don't pick them up, plus they disappear without the piglins exchanging anything
Bryan Emmanuel Mejía Castañeda Piglins only barter with gold ingots.
On IOS iPad 6, I can’t get the piglins to pick up gold ingots at all. (If they’re dropped on the ground) However, clicking the barter button while holding a gold ingot still works.
My simple barter system stops piglins from picking up gold once I put more blocks around the hopper with carpet they are standing on. In the screenshot they pick up 100% of the gold ingots that are dispensed (by a dropper). Once I put a block at the same level of the hopper, they will start to miss one fairly quickly.
I have the impression it has to do with pathfinding once they see blocks they are suppose to be able to walk on. Very weird though as they are completely blocked in by full blocks.
Affects 1.16.100
Affects 1.16.200.56 Beta
After the last update, 1.16.100, our piglin trading center had a marked drop in efficiency. The piglins are hardly picking up any of the gold. It worked fine before the update, but now they don't seem to hardly ever see the gold. We made no changes to the trading center. The gold is dispensed to them.

Still in the latest version
Expected Results: they should be attracting the golds
Observed Results: They ignore golds that are dropped
ye it happened to me too
Affects 1.17.34
Affects Bedrock 1.17.40, playing on Windows 10, realms or locally.
Some additional info from my testing:
Piglins will trade if right clicked with gold in any circumstance (that I've tested), however when restricted in some way (that appears to be a bit inconsistent) they won't pick up dropped or dispensed gold. The most robust way seems to be a 1x1 hole at feet level (though lower half slabs don't necessarily have the same effect). That seems to be usually true whether its a 2 deep hole or with a block above their head to prevent them jumping out, with gold dropped from above or landing next to them 1 block above their feet. When blocked at head level they still appear to behave as expected. There seems to have been a change at some point, maybe around 17.3x, as an auto piglin barter (in a 1x1x3 hole, stood on carpet on a hopper with dispenser directly above) that was working has stopped completely (in survival or creative). If I see any other patterns I'll add more details...
Thanks,
S
