Okay, this is weird Posted by Bonnie L. Sherrell August 24, 2007 - 1:44:06 Topic ID# 8159
I don't see my review goal. I accidently entered through the MEFA2006
link, for which, of course, there was no review goal. Is that why I
can't see my review goal now, and why the program thinks I've met it?
Or is the review goal part of a cookie stored on my computer? I've
been doing my reviews on the laptop, but have been on the desktop
tonight.

Odd!

Hi Bonnie

I was going to ask you what you'd been doing right before you had
problems with your review goal, and I'm (kinda) relieved to know that
you'd just visited the 2006 site.

You're right that this means your 2006 data was picked up and used to
overwrite your 2007 data. Your data is stored temporarily for a
particular session (this saves going back to the database repeatedly, so
should normally speed up the site). If you switch between looking at the
2006 and 2007 sites, the server still knows who you are - but
unfortunately it will then overwrite the data it got from the 2006
database into the 2007 database. Hence the problem with your review goal.

I'm sorry you got hit by this "known bug". I haven't had a chance yet to
see if I can fix this (pesky RL getting in the way :-() especially as I
think it might be relatively complex to sort out. *You* certainly didn't
do anything wrong, but most people don't go into the previous year's
site right before going into this year's site, so it's not been top
priority.

I'll reset your goal (and the fact you haven't reached it yet) manually
- can you confirm your target was 100 reviews? Also, the data overwrite
appears to have unset your liaison too (as your liaison in 2006 wasn't a
liaison this year) so perhaps you could let me know who that was too.

Yes, I had the goal set to 100, and my liaison is AnnMarwalk.

Thanks!

I'd wondered what had overwritten what. Went back on the laptop and
realized that my review goal was now totally gone.

Hi Bonnie

You should be all sorted now. *g* Thanks for helping us work out what
was going on.
