Edit profile in Oasis --> Can't see profile in Patchwork #455

Closed cinnamon-bun closed 4 years ago

What's the problem you want solved?

  1. Edit my profile info in Oasis
  2. Patchwork now thinks I have no profile info. (Name and icon are still there, but not my self-description paragraph). Patchwork shows an empty space where the paragraph would be. If I edit the profile in Patchwork, it's an empty text box.
  3. Save some profile info in Patchwork
  4. Restart Patchwork to make it refresh my profile page
  5. Now I can see my profile info in Patchwork
  6. Check Oasis, it's there too.
  7. Goto step one and repeat, same result

Oasis 2.16.0 Patchwork 3.18.0

I think Oasis was using Patchwork's SSB server during this test but I don't remember for sure.

Is there a solution you'd like to recommend?

Is Oasis saving profile info in a way that Patchwork doesn't understand?

I think this is actually a bug in Patchwork. Sometimes it just shows your own profile as empty, for no reason. Restarting Patchwork fixes the problem.
