Issue with Campaign Posting Tool


Website Feedback


Salutations.

I was writing a campaign description for my campaign at http://paizo.com/campaigns/TheDevilWeKnowPart1 . After typing for 1/2 hour, I hit "preview" at the bottom. I was sent to http://paizo.com/campaigns which is pretty blank. I hit back, and my work was gone. While I learned an important lesson of doing stuff in MS Word first, I think it will benefit everyone if this issue is addressed. Thanks you!


If you use firefox Lazareus is your friend. If not I would suggest notepad or using the copy function.

Lazarus exists for Chrome, Opera and Safari as well. Get it here.

Users of The Browser That Used To Have A Monopoly are out of luck, but, let's be frank, they are out of luck for using it in the first place.

I'm really sorry about the data loss. We've got measures in place to help prevent this from happening with messageboard posts, but haven't gotten around to extending that support to things like campaign descriptions or user profiles.


Sweetness. Nice to know y'all are on top of it. Danke

Generally when posting anywhere on Paizo forums, I can't recommend Lazarus highly enough. Simple install and its an absolute godsend when typing in text forms anywhere. Especially PbP where posts often take much longer to craft.

This is doubly true for player aliases, in which case it is not uncommon for me personally to have open in one edit for an hour or more; doubt i'm the only one as PF characters can get rather complicated. I'm really pleased that user profiles are getting a look too :).


+1 on user profiles being helpful to stop data loss.


On the Lazarus topic, I have actually had the computer freeze up so I had to restart it. My messages were still able to be recovered for Linux and Windows. Lazarus just wins.


In regards to Paizo campaign tools extension:

Anyone else noticing that the yellow highlights in the campaigns tabs have disappeared? I'm running 2.7.0 but it looks like the Paizo website is no longer jiving with some of the features...


Try posting in THREAD. It is where Oladon hangs out for this extension.


Thanks Papa Smurf! :)


Heading to Oladon's thread... anyone else seen campaign tools fail in the last few days?
