I added this piece and its 2 scores just now and was editing it. The preview was all screwed up and now the piece has disappeared from the Vivian Fine page. Should I just try again later, or...?

thanks!

Hi,

The issue was that you accidentally removed the }} from the end of the file entry - because that signifies the end of the file template, what happens if that's removed is it tries to fit the rest of the page text into the file entry, which causes everything to break. It should be fixed now.

Thanks very much. So I don't do it again, can you tell me where exactly was the }} that I removed? (Don't understand where "end of the file entry" is).

So, the IMSLP page before your change looked something like this in edit view (with the lower parts left out):

Code: Select all

{{#fte:imslppage

| *****AUDIO***** =

| *****FILES***** =

{{#fte:imslpfile
|File Name 1=PMLP343026-Gertrude_Virginia_Score.pdf
|File Name 2=PMLP343026-Gertrude_Virginia_Clarinet_and_Bass.pdf
|File Description 1=Complete Score and Parts
|File Description 2=Clarinet and bass parts
|Page Count 1=16
|Page Count 2=6

}} <---------------

I have marked the }} I mean with a long left-pointing arrow ("<---------------" - which of course didn't appear in the edit window). In this edit, you removed those closing bracket characters along with the text in the Misc. Notes field, which caused the page to lose much of its functionality. (Incidentally, removing the ones at the very bottom of the page - not shown in this post - will have a similar effect.) The file entry is the piece of code that starts with {{#fte:imslpfile and ends with that }}.

Thanks so much. The perils of editing--I was just trying to remove an extra = sign I'd added and didn't notice that I'd removed the whole entry including the all-important brackets :)
