Can't post to addicts blog

Posted Apr 14, 2008 by  Cynthia T. [Picasso] in Technology 34 comments
I don't know what is wrong but I have attempted three times to post a new blog to the addicts group and it will not allow me to post.

    It just says edit failed after asking if I want navigate away from the page then it is gone.

    After my name as administrator it say "quit' would that have anything to do with it. I never did quit, an addict like me quit, NEVER.

    OK Debra!!!! It is NOT funny and you of all people should realize how frustrating it would be if you were unable to post something that you wanted to say. ROFL

    I wasn't laughing about the problem...I was laughing about this:
    an addict like me quit, NEVER.

    I know Deb but I also knew that you would understand as you are about as addicted as I am. LOL

    Now if Alex can figure out what the problem is and do his magic and fix it. :-) Smiling sweetly at Alex.

    Cynthia, what confuses me is the fact that you were able to post in this group. There shouldn't be any difference.

    Does it take a long time (about 20 seconds) before it says "Edit failed"?
    What browser are you using?

    She may have to sign out and then back in again, or empty the browsers cache. Have you tried that, Cynthia?

    I think signing out and back in could help. Good advice Deb.

    if Cynthia has done it (login/out) at least once since the new design has been introduced this won't help...

    Could it be in the browser's cache or cookies?

    OK after reading what Deb said I closed the computer down and tried again and it still says the same thing when I tried posting.

    When you ask Alex "what browser are you using" sorry but I really don't know what you mean :-(

    It says edit failed immediately after I navigate away from the page which comes up first when I try to post
    I did just notice the "quit" after my name and still wonder if that has anything to do with it.

    Did you log out and back in?

    By browser i mean what program are you using to go on internet? Internet Explorer, FireFox, Opera, etc.

    I need the exact steps that you take before the problem occurs. Here is what it sounds like you are doing, so correct me if im wrong:

    1. Fill out all fields, including category, etc...
    2. Click "Post Blog"
    3. Window pops up and asks you whether you would like to navigate away from this page.
    4. After you click "Cancel" it says "Edit failed"

    Is that correct?

    Yes Alex that is exactly what happens.

    I believe it is Internet Explorer

    I'm sorry to say this, but you will have to, to (most likely) fix this issue.

    But how? I don't know what to do.
    It is a group that I formed and I can't even post in it.
    Could it be because it says "quit" after my name?

    at the top of the page, right corner, beside your name, it says "Log out".

    Click on it and it will sign you out of Digital Journal. You will have to click "Log in" in the same spot and enter your email and password to be logged back in.

    After that, everything should function properly.

    "quit" is for quitting your group administrator position

    OK I will do it but I don't think that I saved what my pass word is so I will probably have to get a new one.

    probably both Deb, but now I am completely frustrated as i still cannot post in the Addicts group.

    Maybe I will email you what I have been trying to post and you post it and say that it is from me. You wanna be my poster girl Deb? :-)

    Thanks Deb but I had an email from Chris and both he and Alex are working on it to see what is wrong.

    He asked for what I was going to post and they are trying to post it under my name from my account.

    Chris said they need to find out what the problem is.

    Cool. Maybe they can work on it from their end and see if the glitch is still there.
