[naikonta]:i tried to approve [id://624900|this node], but the status didn't change. what happens? [tye]:someone feel for the trap when moving / approving nodes covered in the site documentation [naikonta]:if it's about page reloading, i don't think this is the case. i don't any other traps. [naikonta]:i don't know any traps [naikonta]:tye, what do you mean by the "trap" when approving the nodes? [tye]:moving a node to a different section then approving the node while the nodelet still thinks it is in the original section [naikonta]:but i didn't move the node, only ticked the approve check box and clicked the moderate button [naikonta]:i didn't change the section [naikonta]:it just stayed unapproved (until almut approved it later) [tye]:sometimes "someone" ne "you", no? [naikonta]:the section stays the same up to now, i believe [marto]:I moved that node [naikonta]:i thought the moving/approving trap could only happened on the same browser by the same person [naikonta]:so i guess marto moved the node, i came later trying to approve it (it's already in the new section after moved by marto) so I was supposed to be able to approve it [naikonta]:but it stayed unapproved, i tried again and still stayed the same. i reloaded the browser, still unable to approve. i opened the node in an a new tab, trying to approved and it stayed unapproved. [naikonta]:what i didn't try is quiting and relaunching the browser [naikonta]: but i still believe there's an explanation somewhere i might be too dumb to understand [jZed]:sounds like religion [fenLisesi]:the truth is out there [naikonta]:well, maybe i'll dream about it, later in my sleep (if I ever get sleep) tonight :D [tye]:trying to approve to wrong section leaves node in state where can't be approved until a janitor fixes [tye]:someone fix the docs to be less vague [naikonta]: tye, so when i was viewing on that node, it was on section A. At that time the node was moved to a different section, B. [naikonta]: When I clicked the moderate button, I was actually trying to approve that node that I still viewed as in section A but it had been actually moved to section B [naikonta]: so basically I was trying to approve a node in the wrong section. Is it the case? [tye]:no [tye]:someone ne you. reread :) [naikonta]:the "someone" in your "someone feel for the trap when moving / approving nodes covered in the site documentation"? [tye]:yeah, that too [naikonta]:tye, the nodelet is "someone"? [clinton]:naikonta i think by "somebody ne you", tye meant, "somebody, not you" [naikonta]: i get that, clinton. what i don't get yet is what "someone"/" somebody" tye refers to. [naikonta]: previously he said "moving a node to a different section then approving the node while the nodelet still thinks it is in the original section" [clinton]: somebody other than you, who happened to be doing something to the same node at the same time? (haven't been following the conversation) [naikonta]: could be "someone" is "nodelet" cause "nodelet still thinks ...." [bart]: naikonta the page is in two states. You need to reload the page for it being completely in the new state. [clinton]:naikonta nodelets don't think. They lied to you [bart]: clinton if you want to move and approve you have to 1) move 2) reload 3) approve [clinton]: bart yes - i've got that. It's naikonta who is puzzled [naikonta]: i did that bart, i also reopened the node so it must be equal to reloading [clinton]: if i remember correctly, tye said that that node had entered a state which requires janitorial assistance, ie there is nothing more that you can do about it [bart]: Reopening the node is actually safer. [clinton]: probably because two people were doing things to it at the same time [naikonta]: i understand about the node state. just don't get what exactly happened at that particular moment.
