Problem Posting..
I keep getting this error message.
.....................................................................................................................................................................
and it does NOT post.
Issue one...why the hell don't error messages SAY something? This is the functional equivalent of say "you pissed off god"...it gives me NO clue what to do about it.
What did I do about it?
I tried again..and again...and again...
to no avail.
A little background..
When I post my serialized books...I use a 'template' for the formating...then insert text.
I've used this particular format over seventy times...up until now...not a problem.
I've used this technique literally hundreds of times...
Up until NO PROBLEM...
There's a problem now...
I just made two test posts.
the First one was the template...no text.
it posted just fine.
The second one was just text....
it posted just fine..
I used the same template.
I used different text.
I attempted to post.
it gave me the same error messages..
but it DID post.
I get it too... if you just click dismiss and then check your blog page everything is fine.
except for this time.
it isn't.
image?
huh..
I've used that particular image perhaps a hundred times..
ya think?
I get this now and then, but in most cases the post has posted. Still a lot of technical issues that need worked out.
This has happened to me before. Usually if I check in another window it will be posted anyway though.
One time I kept hitting "post" and it ended up double posting.
Every time I make a post.
I open a new tab to make sure the article went through and then clear the form.
I use SteemStats for that purpose.
Strange that yours doesn't post. When I get that message (and I generally get it when editing for a while), I simply click the "clear form" button and check to see if it posted. It always does.
it's just that ONE post..
I can and have posted others..
You are lucky then. As you can see, it has happened to others. I must have seen that message perhaps 10 or more times already. It is inconsistent and I have no clue as to what causes it. I thought it might be a time factor issue. Obviously something the Dev's need to look into.
you misunderstand...it's just that one article that WON"T (post)
I've seen that error messages (and god knows how many others) several times a day lately.
hundreds if not thousands of times.
but the article posted anyway..BONUS...some times in duplicate or triplicate.
Ah... OK, got it. THIS ONE post is different in that it refuses to post! Well, that is NOT good at all. Now what to do? Try posting from another portal?
yup...no idea whay.
I've separated it into two parts..
the template
the text..
each works just fine..
what's a portal?
Steemit.com is a portal to the blockchain. So is Busy.org and steemstage.com.
so...if my car won't start I should go buy a new car?
( passwords, sign up.....learning curve etc)
SURE!
sounds perfectly reasonable..
I'm getting that - with every post,(not comments) for the last 4/5 days now - but it always posts.
this one didn't. I must have tried ten times.
odd...the template would post.
the text would post.
separately
put them together and it wouldn't post.
Error messages like this are the reason I use Busy to post. The interface is user friendly and I have never seen an error message.
What are you thoughts about busy? Mike.
the busy text editor drives me CRAZY.
I guess it's what you are used to. The Steemit editor drives me nuts. I can get a better feel for how it looks on Busy. lol.
I had posting problems too. Here is what worked for me: https://steemit.com/steemit/@hammeringtruth/can-t-post-on-steemit-won-t-post-my-fix
I only have one answer... If you start following me again, all your troubles will be solved...lol...
