Default Edit FAQ template

I'm running 3.73 Patch Level 1
(mainly because weeks after I paid VB to upgrade to 3.73 PL1 they came out with a frigging new update, you'da thunk they would have had the courtesy to tell me to wait)

Anyway.....I'm trying to edit my FAQ templates, specifically this one:
Signatures, Avatars and Profile Pictures

I click the edit link and it takes me to a page where I can see the code....but there is nowhere to edit the code.

So...how do I edit the actual text that is in that FAQ?

I've help icon to try to figure it out and it tells me this:

This is the "answer" to the "question" (aka Title) of the entry. It should be viewed as a template in that you must use HTML for formatting such as line breaks. If this is a set, this is the description of the set.

Again....no place to edit.

Anyone that can help me?

Thanks in advance

It should show you the item, then say Translations underneath. Just copy/paste the original down there, edit it, Save. Just like you do with phrases.

That's exactly how it works on mine. I just tested it. In fact, from my little experiment I can tell you to NOT forget to also copy the title cuz otherwise it will be saved without a title!

Something is goofy with my install or something then...because it's absolutely not working for me.

Check this screen shot.....and I can change the name of the title and it will update but the text will NOT update.

What happens when you try to change the text? When you go back to that page in the FAQ, is it changed in that bottom part or is that bottom panel 'blank' again (like you have never edited it). Do you get an error when saving? Does an error show up in your error_logs?

I don't know where/how to check error logs but I do not get any errors.

In fact it tells me the edit was successful but nothing ever changes.

The bottom remains with the text in it, it does not go blank after I click "Save".
When I go back to Edit, that text is still in the bottom box, just as I typed it and just like I want it, but the actual text never changes.

Weird huh

Perhaps the page is in your cache? Can you do a Force Refresh on the page (shift + refresh) and maybe it will show up.

Nope....that's not it...I already tried that plus I changed this about noon yesterday (or tried to change it) and I have 3 different computers at home and now I'm at the "day job" on a totally different computer and nothing has changed.

I'm also having issues with the FORUMHOME

I've got another thread on that one.

I can't get my "What's Going On" to go to the top either.

For some reason nothing is updating

Are you using the datastore (check in your config.php):
PHP Code:
    // ****** DATASTORE CACHE CONFIGURATION *****
    // Here you can configure different methods for caching datastore items.
    // vB_Datastore_Filecache  - to use includes/datastore/datastore_cache.php
    // vB_Datastore_APC - to use APC
    // vB_Datastore_XCache - to use XCache
    // vB_Datastore_Memcached - to use a Memcache server, more configuration below
$config['Datastore']['class'] = 'vB_Datastore_Filecache'
If so, did you make sure the datastore folder is chmod to 777? Is the datastore_cache file being updated?
