Unable to update?
Normally I'm able to update a project by just uploading it with the same name as the original, but when i try to do it it, it says, "Your project is now online" yet when i go to the project, it didn't work. What happened?

Re: Unable to update?
Were you already on the project when you uploaded and then like, you refreshed or something? Because you have to exit the page then go back in.

Try clearing your browser's cache perhaps? ^^
I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>Offline

That happens to me too. It doesn't update if I upload it with the same name. It keeps the previous project. I even tried to delete the project and re-upload with the same name, but it doesn't work. I have to upload with a different name to make the changes I made go online, and since the project doesn't work offline, I have to keep doing this again and again.

Strange. Updating worked fine for me when I tried it about a week ago. In fact, even if I deleted a project and uploaded another one with the same name, it would keep all the statistics from the deleted project! *o*

It used to be that you could reupload with the same name, and everything but the actual project would stay the same, now it won't update (or, as cygene said, it takes longer)

So what do you suppose it is? A client-side problem or a server-side problem? If it's a server-side problem, the scratch team should fix it, if it is a client-side problem, we're gonna have to do something.
