Factbook bug

Postby Ananke II » Sat Jan 25, 2014 5:19 am

When I try to access my own Factbook through the link on my nation page I get this error:
Sorry, there's been a problem with your request.

That dispatch no longer exists.
If possible, use your browser's BACK button to return and fix this.

It worked fine some days ago and my Fackbook entry is still there if I access it through the 'Dispatches' link on the sidebar.

I think this is the same problem as reported here. It's been fixed for links generated from now on.

So I have to delete my Factbook and repost it? Will that make me lose my views and upvotes?

No, not at all! It just means that if you wrote a dispatch a few days ago, and a link went into your National Happenings like "Ananke II published a factbook," the link in that National Happenings line was wrong, and will remain wrong until it scrolls off your nation page. Which it already has done, in your case.

Oh, but I see you are talking about a different problem: clicking on your main "Factbook" link says "Factbook not found." This is an unrelated bug, which is caused by changing the category of a dispatch from Factbook to non-Factbook or vice versa. I've just manually fixed your nation, and a real fix is coming system-wide shortly.

I can see my factbook, but cannot add any new entries at all. No button.
On other of my nations there is no option to add anything, no button. Just says those factbooks are empty.

I'm using NS++, if that makes a difference...a couple of days ago everything was fine????

Thanks a lot, [violet]. I'll keep from messing anymore with it until the system-wide fix is in. :)

Fixed the previous fix that caused that button to slide off to the left in some cases.

It's in; I have a few more nations to tidy up manually, though.
