When I upload a bunch of obs (I usually do about 8 obs at a time with around 18 pics), often one of them doesn’t upload. A random one in the middle of the bunch. This doesn’t happen on all uploads. I have waited in case something needs time to refresh, but the missing ob never reappears, and I ha…

This bug seems to have been fixed. I can add Life Stage annotations during upload and I don’t have any indexing problems. I have tried all sorts of permutations, and iNat is no longer foxed by any of them ;-) Thank you to the fixer(s)! Will mark this as solved.

I just re-indexed the unindexed observations after your latest post. I also tried again to replicate the indexing issue by making test observations with nearly your same attributes (same fields, added to the same project, etc) and still cannot replicate it.

Ken-ichi, I am recording the non-indexers here so that I have a record of them, not as a dig at you guys! I am totally grateful for all the help! I can’t fave (or unfave) because the obs don’t load :-( The key to open the box is inside the box ;-)

Thank you so much, Patrick!! I have checked them and they’re all there - yay! On the one - https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/37027370 - I had the sex annotation female. When I tried to remove it now, it won’t go and the little wheel just spins. I waited 2 minutes and then refreshed the ob…

[image] karoopixie: This may be a different problem altogether and not related to the non-indexing? Sounds like a different problem. What we really need for the non-indexing problem is a list of steps to follow that consistently recreate the problem, e.g. “I upload this photo at this time wit…

I hear what you’re asking, but the problem is not consistent. Anyway, this is how it goes: Click on Upload Click on Choose Files Use shift-click (and sometimes ctrl-click) to select a bunch of files. Select cards with shift-click or ctrl-click, and click on Combine, or click-&-drag cards together…

Have added 51 obs of insects this morning without adding life stage field, and lost none of them. Did all the other stuff as detailed above. So the non-indexing does seem to have something to do with the field and/or the annotation it populates? It is also not messing up my order of obs, which wa…

Have now added 126 obs of insects (a couple of spiders as well) without using the LSF, and all obs uploaded no problem.

Ok, so just to be clear, we’re talking about https://www.inaturalist.org/observation_fields/325 with the value set to adult, right? As you’ve done at https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/37071606 ? I just tried uploading a photo with the Uploader and adding that observation field with that value …

i get the sense for some reason that the people who have experienced this problem are on the same kind of internet connection. i wonder if a slow / flaky connection can mess things up somehow? like if the base observation is loaded but then there’s a hiccup while waiting to create the associated chi…

Possibly related to this? https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/slow-loading-time-when-adding-annotations/8348/6
