Unable to Edit Post (lemmy.world)

I'm trying to edit to fix a post I made in Ten Forward, but it keeps giving me 'Error' when I try to save the edit. It doesn't appear to have gotten locked or anything like that, because I checked for that, and there is nothing in the ModLog there about it either. So, I'm wondering if there is some sort of bug.

hi, this should be fixed now. see also https://lemmy.world/post/36187021 for some additional context.

[–] KonalaKoala@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Yep, I tried again, and it appears to be fixed for me in Ten Forward.

Problem to edit post or comments continues, any news? I tried deleting app cash, logout and login, tried editing via 2 different lemmy apps. Same problem.

Also not working via web ui

[–] KonalaKoala@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah, I just checked again just now, and I'm still getting the same 'Error' popup shown here in the bottom left.

I've been experiencing the same thing. The web page UI immediately fails when trying to submit comment updates.

I'll try editing this comment and post the results.

I was unsuccessful in editing that comment. I received the following error:

Edit: not ok

Trying tobedit m'y pist failed, but interestingly, when I made this post, my comment I tried to edit was proposed as a post.

Also it gave this error:

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Oups, should have proofread my post, sorry.

[–] HowRu68@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yeah had a same issue. Post had a little hammer on it though And was marked by automod for editing the title. Apperantly the publisher had edited the title themselves.. https://lemmy.world/post/36129581

Tried to re-edit the title. but couldn't. Though , imo, the autobot is a bit paranoid tooπŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™‚οΈ

[–] KonalaKoala@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I was trying to edit the post itself, not the title, when I was getting the 'Error' popup.

[–] HowRu68@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Maybe editing [ a post ]itself creates the error. Even editing a comment just now, proved almost impossible
