How to install? Sites not saving

Post by sparky »

I'd really like to try RJ out but I’m experiencing an issue with the latest version on Windows 11 where the Sites panel is not working correctly.

Steps I took:
Installed RJ TextEd fresh today.
Created a new Site in the Sites panel and named it.
The name immediately reverts to “New.”
After closing and reopening RJ, the Site no longer appears in the Sites panel and can't be retrieved.
I noticed that the Sites folder was not created in the AppData\Romaning\RJ TextEd folder. I manually created it but the issues persist.

Environment and setup:
Windows 11, user account has full permissions on AppData and subfolders.
RJ installed fresh today, no prior versions.
No antivirus or security software is blocking RJ from writing files.

Why does RJ fail to save or reload Sites? Is this a known bug or a configuration issue? Are there any recommended workarounds so Sites persist correctly?

Thank you for any guidance.

I just tried but it worked perfectly at my end.

I'm not sure what you mean by "it reverts to New". Where does it reverts to New? Is it inside the site dialog window, or is it inside the sites tree view?

If you can - a small video showing the issue would be really helpful.

Thank you for your reply!

In the dialog window, when creating the Site. Screenshot attached. As soon as I move out of that field, my Site name is replaced with New. If I close RJ and re-open it, it has no memory of the site I created. I have to create the Site every time I open the software.

Ah :shock: I guess I never though anyone would use it like that...

When you type the new site name - press Enter. I'll make some changes in the next release...
