I can add historical events to my timeline, but they seem to be lost if I leave the timeline page then come back to it.

Steps to Reproduce

  • Create a historical event in a timeline
  • wait for the green check-mark to show up on the bottom left
  • click away from the timeline, to your archives or some other page
  • Click back to your timeline and see the added historical events no longer there

Yes, I have dealt with a similar issue, but with articles instead of timelines (though I have found that adding an event causes the timeline to go into view mode instead of staying in edit mode but that's a different issue entirely). And before anyone says that I had a second tab of the article open and edited in that one by accident, I don't have a second tab open. I only have one edit version open and one public presentation view mode open to view the article as my players or readers would see it. It can easily be reproduced with similar steps as above. I have tried to report this before, but was told that it can't be reproduced even though this has happened at least 3 times this Summer Camp alone, and a few more times before that.  

  • create article
  • type a bunch of text
  • wait for green checkmark
  • add a prompt box (usually from the header section) and add text to that
  • navigate away from article
  • go back to article to see your text is missing
  • I do wait for the green checkmark to appear, but that sometimes doesn't work. I have to reload the public presentation mode to make sure changes are actually saved before I can even attempt to navigate away from article so I don't lose hours of hard work.   I feel like this is something to do with the save feature or something similar.   Example of how I view and type up my articles:

    Sometimes the data might not be loaded, try a full page refresh using the refresh button of your browser or F5. If there is still an issue respond here :)

    Well, this timeline issue resolved itself (the timeline stuff eventually showed after 48 or so hours), but now I have a new similar problem: entire folders of content is gone! I had a folder with several files of king figures, and it's not longer showing up in my "articles & world manager" page. However, I can still link to those pages - and when I did, the content showed back up. I don't understand why stuff keeps vanishing/reappearing in my account/world.

    Try the 3dot menu on the sidebar on the tree view and press collapse all

    For the moment, seems like the issue resolved itself before I could follow this advice. Will keep it in mind for next time!
