Description

Any changes I make to a title or article settings only results in a red warning icon in the bottom left. When I return to the article, none of the changes are saved. Text in the article itself is saved however.   I have a stable connection. Tried to repeat it multiple times on different articles. Refreshed the page. Exited it fully and entered it again, but nothing worked.

Steps to Reproduce

Make changes to any article.

I am having this issue too but only with Folders/Categories and not with articles themselves.
I am also seeing the red triangle in the bottom right corner showing a bad save. Editing articles is still saving with the green check mark for me.

Step to reproduce:
  1. Navigate to Articles and World Manager from the nav bar
  2. Create a sub folder to one of the existing folders
  3. Open that folder to edit mode and change the title
  4. try any means to leave and come back: select a different folder and return, refresch the back, view in world, etc
  5. see that the title reverted.
This is also happening with the content field for folders/catagories.

I'm also experiencing this bug.
I've tried ceaselessly to fix it but it still persists.

Hey, we have deployed a fix for categories not saving correctly for the comment that mentioned this, but I cannot reproduce any errors on articles. Could you tell me apart from the article title, which field in the settings you are trying to update?

Apologies, I see now that it was a folder that I was changing settings on. This was in regards to making them appear as a book cover on the homepage, which now seems to work. Thanks for the help on both topics.

I can edit articles without issue. But when changing a folder's name or switching to public or private, the change fails with a red triangle warning icon in the lower left. I have tried a hard refresh, clearing cache, and incognito mode. All methods fail. This does not appear to work in Chrome on mobile either. Is there any other way to edit existing folders?
