Wiki Data Entry Problem in Unabridged Audiobooks

Postby MorkTheFiddle » Wed Jan 09, 2019 11:39 pm

This afternoon (9 Jan 19) around 5 PM local time (USA-Central Standard), I entered some data in the Wiki area for lists of unabridged audiobooks in the French section. The data was accepted and is now visible. When I attempted to enter more data, the Wiki rejected it on the grounds that I was not logged in. Even though I was not logged in the first time. When I attempted to log in via my gmail account, the log-in screen simple sat there mutely, not logging me in and not even acknowledging my attempt to log in. To recap, the Wiki let me enter some data without logging in but refused the next batch because I was not logged in. Tried to log in via gmail, could not.

wikia has their own technical support. have you tried clearing the cache? in general our wikia allows editing when logged out.

Thanks for your reply, Serpent. I need some free time to look into this again.
