Guest LadyMeda Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Hello, I seem to be having an issue with the Archives RTE. It was working fine a few days ago, but now when I go to submit a chapter, it is just a box. There are no formatting tools at the top. Also, if I click on "edit chapter", and then select a previously submitted chapter, nothing shows up in RTE. It also has no formatting tools at the top. I am having the same issues in both Google Chrome and Firefox. I have cleared all caches and cookies (and everything else it would let me clear), restarted the browsers, and even restarted the computer for good measure. Nothing has worked. Did I miss something, or is this a site-wide issue right now? How can I fix it? Thank you, LadyMeda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pittwitch Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Have you tried logging out, then logging back in using the boxes in the upper right hand corner, not the center boxes? Sometimes that works ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LadyMeda Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Darn, no luck with the logout/login trick. Here's a pic in case it might help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LadyMeda Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Alright, something bizarre is going on. In chrome, now when I select "My control panel" ---> "Movies" ---> "Edit", the "Select story" and "Select Chapter" boxes are missing. They were just there maybe 10 minutes ago. I'm so confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pittwitch Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 It really sounds like you aren't logged in. DG is around and BW - they know more about this stuff. They'll work it out for ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LadyMeda Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Huh. The site thinks I'm logged in. Hopefully DG and BW will have some ideas. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pittwitch Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Did you use the center boxes or the corner ones? The site will think you're logged in, but the center boxes are only for validating the first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LadyMeda Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 I always use the ones in the right-hand corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LadyMeda Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 Well, the issue with the "Select Story" and "Select Chapter" disappearing seems to be fixed, but the original problem with the Rich Text Editor still persists.

DemonGoddess Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 I just checked, and I'm not able to duplicate the error in Chrome. I'm having no trouble. You may have a corrupted cookie string. Try deleting ALL cookies for *.adult-fanfiction.org, closing the browser and restarting it, and then see what happens.

Guest LadyMeda Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 Is the process for that different than going into tools, history settings, etc. and deleting them normally? Because I already deleted everything I could (Internet cache, cookies, browser history, etc.), shut down any running programs on my computer, and restarted the computer.

DemonGoddess Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 Nope, that's all it is. I just did it myself, and am still having no issues at all with Chrome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LadyMeda Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 Argh! I keep trying the process over and over, but nothing has worked. I even borrowed someone else's computer to see if it was just my machine, and had the exact same problem. I'm at a total loss for what to do.

DemonGoddess Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 so you clicked menu>settings>advanced settings>clear browsing data made sure cookies and cache were checked? in content settings, you'll want to check and see if "allow local data to be set" is also selected. Be very sure you've logged in using the boxes at the upper right corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LadyMeda Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 Yep. Just in case, I went through again and followed your latest instructions to the letter, making sure that "allow local data to be set" was checked. Still no luck.

DemonGoddess Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Did you copy/paste from an html document instead of a word document? That's what I fixed in the database. You should be able to access it all now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LadyMeda Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Huh. I was copy/pasting from an OpenOffice Word document. But more importantly, I just checked and everything is working perfect now. Yay! Thank you so much for your time and patience. You rock!

DemonGoddess Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 you're welcome! I expect you saved it in word format from OO. Make sure you use "paste from word" so that it catches and parses out any kind of weirdness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
