The story summary is not being saved every time someone wants to add a story.  It comes up with the message that there are fields missing.  I tried it a few times myself and got the same problem.  Is there any way to fix it.

Sorry about that - here's the missing info...

***
Website: http://www.bonanzabrand.net/efiction/stories.php?action=newstory

Message:
Add New Story
Some of the required information is missing. Please check your input. Required fields are title, summary, categories, rating, and story text.

***
For some reason the summary is not posting and I have checked all of the settings.  You need to be a member to upload a story and then you have to be validated before posting.  The version is 3.2 and the only things that have been changed are the skins.

Validate my account.  I seriously doubt it's a bug in the script otherwise someone else would have already reported it.  That's something that wouldn't have been missed.

it could be possible that you are adding the summary into the Story notes or author notes fields instead of the summary. There are a lot of text boxes...


Whoever said nothing is impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

Tammy - you've been validated.

It's definitely a problem with the summary not posting.  Like I said I tried it a few times and made sure that I put a summary in but for some reason it fails to be recognise and comes up with the above error message.

Put the default_tpls back to the original. Do NOT replace the default_tpls.  Put your site skin in the skins folder and set that skin as the site default. Delete any skins in the skins folder you don't want, but don't touch the default_tpls.  I also need you to turn debug on.  We also need to know what version you're running.

Check your censored words list.  You've most likely somehow put something in there that's deleting the entire thing.

Yes it was the Language Censor.

Thankyou for your help Tammy.

Just out of curiosity what did you have in the censored words list that caused it?

The ones I had were one mainly with the wildcard * symbol.
