Adding a secret does not save

I have tried multiple times to add a secret to character article. It opens the new editor, warns me add a title. I do that, and I paste in text. I've even tried typing text before and after, and inside the paste. I've tried just typing. No matter what I do, there is no save option, and there is no indication of saving going on. So when I close the dialog and click on the refresh there is nothing there.

Steps to Reproduce

* Click on "Add a secret" button. * Type anything in the title * Type anything in the body * Wait a bit, no save happening in background * Type some more, click on Private, do anything * Only way to close dialog is to click X * Refresh list - :-( nothing

Hey there!

I had a quick look into your account and I can see you created several secrets the last day (see below)

In secrets, as with the new articles interface, there is no "save" button, the system autosaves the content.

The indicator for saving is at the bottom left corner.

You said you pasted in content - if that content had in it characters that WA cannot support like emoji's (not UTF-8 characters) then there is a chance the content did not save, but you would have seen that at the bottom left (red indicator)

Can you please try again and let me know?

In addition to the symptoms described, there was a bug related to the new secrets not being attached to the current article (if you added the secret from inside the article inside Advanced Edit > Secrets), but this should have been resolved since this bug report was filed.

Please check if the issue is still occurring (and check if you're using any emoji or non-standard letters/symbols as Dimitris mentioned above)

I am really sorry for not replying sooner. Yes, I have just tried it, and it does in fact work. I did try adding content without a title and it wasn't saving but I'm pretty sure I did that ebfore.Anyway, all seems good now. Thanks for the excellent work
