Problem Editting Bookmarks

[+kschu]

I like the new bookmarks feature. I had a bookmark list I was putting together which lists Travel Bug Hotels in my area. I editted the list to show that I found another cache that I had previously listed as still to be found. Anyway, I also checked the box to make the list public. Then I saved my changes.

 

Now the list does not show up on my list of bookmarks. I went to visit one of the sites on the list (GCQ1YB) and I can see the public bookmark list on the right side of the page. When I try to "edit" the details for this list, it says this list is archived and I can not make any changes.

 

I don't think that is how it is supposed to work. Please educate me if I am wrong. Is there a chance that some other bug was introduced with the patch that was applied today (after the adoption problem I reported last week).

 

I really don't think it is me that is breaking things. I just seem to be finding things that are broken.

I was just editing a bookmark list, and it disappeared off my drop-down list. I back-paged to it, and found the list archived. Well, I thought I accidently hit the Archive button instead of the Edit button (but surprised there was no warning), so I attempted to create a new one, that automatically archived.

 

However, the list is still showing on cache pages (it is a public list), and still an active link that brings up the list. This is the link to my list in question.

 

I am glad to read another user having a problem, since I thought I was going crazy. Naturally, I am ceasing all list management for the time being.

This was an error on my part. The public nature of bookmark lists were also archiving the list. I'll run through the ones edited in the past few hours and unarchive them. However I'll remove the public nature of them so you'll have to mark it again.

There weren't a lot of them. Only 6 accounts had been making lists public. I did notice some duplicates for some folks so if I missed the right one, let me know.

Well, it is nice to see the full utilization of lists is growing "exponentially."

 

Thanks for fixing that so quickly!

You misread me. Only 6 accounts had created public bookmark lists in the past 2 hours.

Perhaps another bug? I clicked off the share and make public options on a list, and it still appears on the cache pages.

[Jeremy]

Cache listings often store the details in memory. It should drift off the page after a few minutes.

Nevermind. The "intuitive" bit of bookmarks blew right on by me. I clicked off a public list and checked, but if it is my list it will appear to me on the cache page regardless of whether or not it is public. DUH.

[Jeremy]

It will but it should still be under "my bookmark lists"

Thanks Jeremy,

 

I've only had two problems with this web site since I got involved. That's two worth reporting, so it does not include operator (that would be me) errors. You have responded to both promptly. The list I reported has been corrected. You do good work. Thank you.
