I don't understand

Without knowing the series the screenshots are of not much use.

What series has to do with it, when it happens often?
Try create 10 titles, with 20 episodes each and you will see the problem

@owenrees​ https://imdb.com/title/tt21096646/
One title, with that 3 episodes which doesn't work

@ugnieska​ 

I'm not immediately seeing any error. What kind of data are you trying to submit?

Okay, I see that three episodes could not be found in the episode browser.

If you enter the correct episode data  yourself it does seem to work, though.

@Peter_pbn​ Hi! Specifically which 3 episodes did this happen in?

Thanks!

@Bethanny​ 

As seen in my first screenshot I hadn't selected episode 1.6, 1.11 and 1.18 because they were not available to select.

This is when trying to add a credit from the series page.

@ugnieska​ Sorry for the delay.  We have asked for an update on the progress. 

@ugnieska​ The team have investigated the issue and solutions are under discussion. 

@Col_Needham​ I hope it will be fixed soon, becauce this bug now evolving like some kinda a virus
It shows that some episodes was not accepted

But it's already on the site, of course you can't add anything to it, well you can add individually, but with group adding you can't

@ugnieska​ Sorry, but the issue on this thread is a front-end contribution issue affecting a small number of shows with very specific characteristics (which is why it is both rare and difficult to diagnose). 

Any issues relating to processing or status updates are separate and should be raised on a separate thread with contribution numbers to demonstrate the problem. 

@ugnieska​ Sorry for the delay on this.  We have given your latest feedback to the team investigating this.  Unfortunately the bug is rare and it only affects a small number of titles and only in specific update cases, all of which your updates seem to be triggering, sorry. 

But how it can be small numbers of titles, when i encounter it in every even small title now. And all happens only for me, i don't do anything specific, i don't use any bots to do contributions or something
Few days ago i created episodes for 5 mini titles, 4 episodes each
And every title were bugged
First title 1 episode
Second title 3 episodes even
Third title 2 episodes
Fourth title 1 episode
And fifth title also 2 episodes

Then i created 20 episodes for other title and 7 episodes were bugged

It looks even like something is done on purpose, i understand it's not the case, but it looks like that, because only i get this bug and on every title almost now
It really bumps my enthusiasm for creating titles, because it gets bugged all the time

I can create test titles for programmers if it's necessary, maybe then they will find what bug causing it, because it looks like only i get it

Hi @ugnieska,

Thank you for reporting this. I have filed a ticket (ref. #D137191613) for the appropriate team to investigate this. I will provide any updates to this thread as and when we receive them. For added insight, are you able to provide us with the saved 18-digit submission reference for the above contribution attempt?

Thanks!

See my response in your previous thread: https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/data-issues-policy-discussions/i-dont-understand/65d46b9a36d43032e574ed33?commentId=65d4740fed7a464f968d9301&replyId=65d4bcd7ed7a464f968d9f9b

Without knowing the series the screenshots are of not much use.

The original thread is still marked as "In Progress". As was pointed out there, few other people seem to be seeing this issue and your experience seems to be unusual.

@owenrees​ I can say why other people doesn't experience it. Bugs like this doesn't choose people on what account to have this bug. Many people fill episodes one by one, when it airs, that's why they don't get it. For past few months i studied how western series contributors works. In the east we work differently because many episodes air on the same day, or in a few weeks tops. And main crew is always the same, so you add them on all episodes at once.

And also i found a way how to work around this bug, but this make so much time, when you have to do it one by one, same credits after same credits
When on any episode you add some credits directly, it starts to appear on episodes list to add all at once
I did it today with these series too, because i can't wait when it will work, because these series airing right now
But now i have to push work on others series for the next day, because i spend more time on these series
And also this is another reason why nobody gets this bug
Because many people work on the series contribution, so if one person adds everything one by one, for another it will work adding all at once
But when i do mostly everything alone it sucks, because you have to spend time on the thing that should work

Hi @ugnieska,

Are you still experiencing this bug in relation to episode mapping? If so, please could you provide us with a saved submission reference to help our team investigate.

Thanks!

Sometimes actually, but really not that often like before, for the past week now very rarely, but i didn't try to do more than 10 episodes per series, i will try soon and if it will happen i will provide all submissions

Hi @ugnieska,

That would be great, thank you!

@Ozzy I have a example for you
One episode today got bugged
https://imdb.com/title/tt32639277/episodes/
Here it shows that it's accepted, but doesn't have a release date
Here it shows it's not accepted https://contribute.imdb.com/contribution/240619-090144-626000

Hi @ugnieska,

Many thanks for the example. I have forwarded this on to the investigating team.

Cheers!

@Ozzy https://contribute.imdb.com/contribution/240814-053751-379000
It's still happening
Any progress on it?

Hi @ugnieska,

Thank you for the further example, I have added this to the ticket as the team are still working on this issue. Thank you for your continued patience!
