I would like to second this issue and add some information. It also happens on the Chrome Browser and seemed to start sometime on the 27th (I was working on secrets that day and after some buffer I reloaded and the error occurred). Good to know it's not just a problem with me.

I've been having the same issue, Just bought a subscription & articles are all giving me notifications saying "article not found" :/

I'm having the same issue on secrets I've added to a page today, and secrets that I added a month ago. When I click the 'view in world" button the secrets do appear though.

I am having the same issue. From Opera browser.

I am also finding this error occuring with all my secrets. Although I am using Chrome rather than Firefox as my browser. Text from error message pasted below:

Same - using Chrome. Opened worldanvil in edge and logged in having never used edge for it before and encountered the same thing. The secrets under the article would briefly show up (you can try screenshotting) and then would go to the same error that Martin J had.

I have added a secret using the "Articles & Secrets" accordion down at the bottom of an article in Athena. In my testing, adding a secret (using the green button) then backing out after naming it, I was still able to click the secret and have it pop up in a modal window above the article. I then switched between edit -> preview -> edit and tested, then closed Athena and re-opened it and tested, then did a hard reload of the page and tested it. In all cases, the modal appeared correctly (using Opera (chromium based)).

I did note that when in presentation (viewing article in world) and clicking "edit" on a secret in the actual text, the page changes to athena, but the secret does not pop up at all. This is unrelated to the current bug, however.

It is possible that this may have been updated/fixed recently, so I'm curious to know if you're all still experiencing this.

It works for me with secrets yes.
