Small bug 6.79 -- duplicating project

After implementing the new Article Tab I have an error when try to duplicate a project: the article(s) doesn`t fill the data tab into the project duplicated (the new one), I need to re-enter them manualy.

  • +1 on this issue. We encountered the same.
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    fixed in next version sorry
  • Thanks!
  • Another minor bug: I usualy autofill with many kontent machine ready files, now with filling the first components have a prefix #KM0 which one REMAINS into the submitted articles.
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    #KM0 is in the article!?
  • I`ve founded it as an ANCHOR (in that project I checked "use the keywords as anchor text". TBH, not sure about the articles after posting, but in the preview it`s there on the top of the first article.
  • Hm.. the WORST: I use the macro "spinfolder" for the articles - I use folders with 30-50 spinned articles. So after the update into the new Article tab I have ..a single article, instead of the macro! More - seems it`s not possible anymore to use the Macros even for the new projects, or for editing (or I can`t find out how)
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    Nothing changed...you can still use the macro on a single article.
  • Yep.. but all old projects have reduced the articles from 30-50 to a single one. Will be hard work to reenter details for hundred of projects.
    Anyway, thank You for Your hard work to improve that amazing tool!
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    NO! You don't have to change anything...article can stay in as they are.
  • Will it be confusing for SER if we check "prevent to post same article per acount" using spinfolder macro?

  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    For macros like %spinfolder% or #file_links the program counts each article as a new one. So whenever you use that macro in the article content, it is seen as a new one. This however could produce duplicates is the same article file is taken. So I recommend you to import the articles in the GUI instead.

    Quick info: The default placeholder for the summary is missing an "h"

    This is how it looks by default:
    %first_paragrap-article%

    Just in case anyone missed that and is wondering why his summaries look respectively wrong.
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    thanks, just realized this stupid bug.

    What was the outcome with this Sven?

    I have rather a lot of articles that show %first_paragrap-article% when you preview test projects

    At a guess, well over 1000 articles are affected by this, spread over every tier

    Is it a case of delete them all and start again from scratch, or did you work your magic to resolve the issue

  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    hmm use notepad++ and do a search + replace in files
  • LeeGLeeG Eating your first bourne

    Can you give more insight into what and how to use notepad++ on?

    What files etc to look at

    I have never used it in all honesty and have no idea where to even start

    I just assumed that when the problem was pointed out to you initially, you would have added a new macro to cure the problem

    I was surprised to find the problem still there and that's why I asked the question

  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de

    I didn't auto correct this as most engines do not use the article-summary anyway. I don't have notepad++ but only PsPAD.

    In that you choose search+ replace in files and do the input there...done.

    Sorry didn't get that.. do we all have to edit something in notepad++ to not to have %first_paragrap-article% instead of the summary text? ..or is it only those who use this macro manually in their article?
  • Uggh,  Dang that sucks.  I'd have to do this on over 15 Servers.  :(  Is there a faster way you know of?  Or literally only notepad ++.

    LeeG,  Notepad++ you'd just have to open up Engines, you can open 20-30 at once with it,  than just do the search for %first_paragrap-article% and replace with
    %first_paragraph-article%

    Than do the next 30 etc. etc. :/
  • LeeGLeeG Eating your first bourne

    There was an error with the macro

    At one stage %first_paragrap-article%  was added instead of %first_paragraph-article%

    Notice the missing h in the first macro

    Seriously guys.. is this a joke? Why isn't it fixed with update and everyone has to do it on their own :D
  • donchinodonchino https://pbn.solutions
    @Sven Can you please confirm if latest version 6.89 has this macro bug fixed? Afraid to start Ser till there might be bug submitting articles..
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    Slow down please. This spell error in macro was added in some small part of a previous version. This bug is of course fixed but it is not fixing your already wrong added content with the spell error. I daubed many people have this at all.

    Thanks Sven, that's what i thought and just wanted to be sure of
