Title: Updating player rating removes comment
Post by: cat on Fri 09/02/2024 21:33:42
I rated a game and added a comment while doing so. When I used the "change your votes" I was able to get back to the form. The comment field was empty. When I changed my rating and saved, suddenly my comment was empty. I would expect instead one of the following:
- The comment stays the same, as not related to the rating
- The comment belongs to the rating and is shown again in the "change your votes" screen

The two things don't link up; comments aren't designed to be edited, so they aren't shown on the edit votes screen.  If you want to replace a comment, a game page admin (like yourself!) will need to delete the existing comment.  The four votes you've given this year all still have associated comments?  Can you give an example of a game where your comment seems to have disappeared?

When I realized that suddenly the comments were empty, I used the "change your votes" screen again, re-typed the comments and clicked save. That's why the comments are there back again. I didn't want to change the comment, just the rating, but the comment vanished when I saved without typing a comment in the field.
It happened with the last two comments/ratings I did today.

Ahh, that was a bug!  The previous comment field would never populate due to some faulty logic.  Should work now!  Thanks for reporting it.

I tested it and it is working now. Thanks for fixing it, @AGA !
