I know it's our responsibility as users to report errors that we encounter along as we use the platform. By doing so, we are helping the developers and the people behind Steemit. And so, I am sharing with you the kind of error I experienced.
Strangely last night, using my blog A Daily Dose", I was about to post for my A Daily Dose Series on Inspire People (a community I made) when I figured out it fails to appear after posting. Usually, after you hit the post button, your article/blog will appear wherever you wanted it to be published. That's how it is supposed to be. But the case was, it wasn't as usual as that.
After posting, it will prompt you the published result, and the community where you posted it doesn't appear. What appears is a hive number. From what I know, it's the dedicated number made for that particular community.
• Notice when was it first posted, and the action made to that post.
• And this is what you get from trying to refresh the page.
I tried to refresh many times with time skips as well, but it seemingly doesn't work. I also tried to look at the hashtags I included on my blog posts, and there were no signs of my article appearing on the unmoderated tags. I even tried to post on other communities, but the result is the same.
On the other hand, I checked my user activity log on steemd.com, and there were records of me authoring the article. It also shows the number of tries I did. That's why it is confusing why my post is not appearing on my blog.
I even checked this morning if there were any changes on my blog, hoping it has appeared, but it didn't. What I found out through trying to post the same article again, there was an error saying I cannot change the permalink or something. Maybe it was trying to say that it already exists, or the system has somewhat received the same article.
Also, there was an instance when I tried to refresh the site this morning I received an error as well saying Internal Server Error or something like that if I remember it clearly. And I thought maybe something is going on to the servers or what. I can't clearly say so because I don't have any particular knowledge about these.
What I can do is share with you what I experienced, and hope that maybe someone out there knows what was that. I hope that perhaps somebody can explain or give insights regarding this matter.
Let's make it a thread. Please feel free to share your experiences and insights!
Have you experienced the same thing? What recent errors have you already encountered on Steemit?
