Perchance - Create a Random Text Generator
⚄︎ Perchance
This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.
Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)
This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

In my test, it requires the gen owner to save to apply any edits. Gen user won't see any updates even after refreshing the tab. And the collab editor saving the gen will making a new copy.
All of the above seems similar to previous logic, but what about collab editors could make save like Google doc or Office 365? If it requires the gen editor to save it, it doesn't help much in a gen requires daily frequently updated by multiple different admins. It doesn't do much different then people just sharing the main account and taking turns.
Hmm this definitely shouldn't be the case. Anyone with the collab link should be able to save/apply the edits. Can you try again, and if you're able to reproduce it, can you let me know the steps to take to replicate?
If someone with the collab link saves it, it should just save it as if they were the gen owner (i.e. not make a new copy).
Hello hello mystery solved. It's that collab editor could not be logged in user, because they save the gen as new gen. Instead, a good collab editor should be logged out to save any edit, which isn't mentioned??
Ah thank you! Fixed. It shouldn't save as new gen when you're using a collab link anymore, even if you're logged in and not the gen's owner.
