Description Requires Saving Twice

Saving the description of any particular place from Configure > Description won’t actually update the description. Only by going back into configuration and saving once more (no further edits made) will the description actually update.

Where this happens: When configuring the description of any particular place. When in started happening: Not sure, but it has been going on for a while now.

System Specs: Unnecessary, but I’m using the latest version of Google Chrome without extensions, plugins, or anything of the sort. Log files and dump files aren’t necessary. Repro:

a. Go to a place, and press the three dots in the upper right corner to open up “configure.”
b. Edit the place’s description, hit save, and view your place’s description. Notice how it hasn’t updated.
c. Repeat step a. on the same place, then hit save without editing your description.
d. Note how the description has now updated with all your aforementioned updates.

(Yes, I am aware that this exists, however it isn’t in #platform-feedback and has minimal detail.)

I believe changing the place name has the same error, glad to see this being addressed.

This has been an issue for me, I would think I changed everything. Then I’d get complaints from people saying nothing changed in the description.

This issue also happens when you want to make a game private/public.

I noticed this a long time ago, my assumption was that it was just cached but updating a second time for some reason forced it to update.

I am in the process of checking over bug reports and following up on some bugs that haven’t received any activity in a while.
Is this issue still occurring or can you confirm that this bug has been resolved? We are having a hard time reproducing this issue. It seems to be working just fine for me.

Has a fix been put in place? Ever since yesterday, I’ve not been able to even update the description. It shows the new description in the configure page but when I click save, it doesn’t update the description.

The same thing is happening to me now. I tried to change my game description last week and it would not update no matter how many times I clicked save. Tried to save it again this week and still nothing. This is super annoying because my game description is outdated and there is no way to update it because of this bug.

This has been happening to me for months, with both name and description from anywhere where these fields can be saved. Latest version of Brave browser.

Can confirm that this issue is still present when wanting to edit a game. It is very frustrating to know that nothing is updated but that you have to repeat the same steps. This greatly impairs the workflow.
