Description

When I go to transfer a world to a designated username with the same guild level as myself, it says "Saved" but does not actually transfer the world. I have tried three different ways as this person is also co-owner. 1) Transferring normally, authors and all. 2) Transferring with no other authors. 3) Transferring without this person and authors on the authors/editors list.

All three tries did not work.

Steps to Reproduce

1) Go to setting location for world transfer

2) Attempt world transfer after inserting username and pressing button.

3) World saves, I go check if it transferred and it still says co-owner for this person.

Can you give us more information so we can check this.

Which world, from which user to which user

LostAndFound
I am also having the same issue. I've also tried transferring a world from one account to the other a few times over the last couple weeks and it is saying that changes are saved, but the new account still does not have access/ownership via its worlds. (I am trying to transfer the Solarean Adventures world from SolareanAdventures to LostAndFound.)

Same issues here.
Tried to transfer to my co-author and it has not done anything.

This is a major blocker, because it makes me remove my co-author from his position before transferring. Now he cannot work on it while this bug persists.

I tried to transfer the world of 'Daurinath' from me, 'Grayfox', to 'Roscal'

We have been trying now over the past 4 days.

We have:
  • Made sure that 'Roscal' is removed as a Co-Author from the world before transfering.
  • Changed his name from 'GM Roscal' to 'Roscal' incase the space character was messing with it.
  • Tried over multiple days, giving it 24h to complete incase its a time thing.
  • Changed from Google Chrome to MS Edge as a browser.
  • Deleted Browser Cache before trying again.

    • If there is anything else that needs to be tried, I will gladly help. Until then I will now just wait for a response from dev.

    Having the same issue. Trying to transfer a world on this account to another with a higher membership. It just says changes has been saved with nothing else happening.
