Can't save profile changes

[olegfedak]

Is this a bug?

I corrected the bio and saved it, but the changes are being lost.

Did you change it at '.md' file ?? Could you show the changes you made ??

This is not happening to me. But by the looks of the video you provided above, definitely a bug.

If this is still happening, you could file a bug report here: Bug-Report

I use Safari, and clearing cookies didn't help. I did what was needed through Chrome. Now, I have two versions of my bio: with and without the article :)

@olegfedak
Could you try signing-out and signing-in again to see if changes works ??

And, If you've created another account, please try the same thing on new profile and observe the disparity, you tried earlier.

@mdnurulmomen, the issue still exists on Safari even after re-signing into the account (I've only tried it on this one).

After a day, it also doesn't work on Chrome ;(

If you're experiencing an issue where changes to your GitHub profile bio are being lost after you've saved them, it's possible that there could be a technical issue or bug. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the situation:

1. Browser Cache: Sometimes, browser cache can cause issues with displaying updated content. Try clearing your browser cache and refreshing the page to see if the changes appear.

2. Browser Extension: If you're using any browser extensions that modify or block website content, it's possible that they might be interfering with the saving of your bio changes. Try disabling extensions one by one to see if the issue persists.

3. Device or Network Issues: Sometimes, network connectivity problems or device-related issues can cause data to not save correctly. Try accessing GitHub from a different device or network to see if the issue persists.

4. GitHub Platform Issue: Occasionally, GitHub itself might experience temporary glitches or issues that affect certain user interactions. You can check GitHub's status page or their support resources to see if there's any ongoing issue affecting profile bio updates.

5. Account Verification: In some cases, GitHub might have verification checks in place to prevent certain changes, such as profile updates, if your account hasn't been fully verified. Make sure your account is in good standing and that there are no outstanding verification requirements.

6. Reach Out to GitHub Support: If the issue continues to persist after trying the above steps, it might be a bug or technical issue specific to your account. You can contact GitHub support or visit their community forums for assistance.

Remember to document any specific steps you've taken and any error messages you encounter to provide better context when seeking help.
