I have been sitting out of the “what’s changed” with Virily lately. Partly because I don’t like the nasty comments that come with those posts at times; the other reason being that I am still learning. As Ghostwriter pointed out, the source of information is critical. I don’t post about the issues and new and exciting new features until I have time to test them. Recently there are a couple of issues that popped up that I found interesting. So, I did just a small amount of testing to see in fact if it was me or the site having the issue. As a long time computer helpdesk person, I always start with the assumption that the problem is on my side first. That way I don’t have to backtrack if I find out later it isn’t the site itself.
First of all, publishing from drafts. It is an issue that I noticed and began to think about how does that problem manifest itself. I noticed that when I connected to Virily with Chrome, I was unable to publish a draft. Chrome and Google have changed a couple of security settings in the release they made in April to remove Google + as an option. Those changes, for Chrome, appear to be in how JScript loads. I tried Opera and had no issue publishing drafts. That made me wonder, so, I went back, and disabled add-ins for Chrome. Chrome worked publishing drafts https://www.lifewire.com/disable-extensions-and-plugins-in-google-chrome-4103624 if you want to try that on your computer.
1. Chrome works without add-ins loading, so not sure which add in it is but one doesn’t like Virily.
2. Edge works publishing drafts, but I don’t have any add-ins loaded in the edge.
3. Opera works publishing from drafts
4. Mozilla works publishing from drafts.
5. Safari worked with add-ins loaded.
Now, there is one more issue in this that has to be considered. However, note two verified users were also unable to publish from drafts. Now, most of us have add-ins and extensions loaded in our browsers. I am not saying that there isn’t a better way. I am simply pointing that by removing all extensions in Chrome, I was able to get a draft to publish (this blog in fact).Just a preliminary post, I will continue to test when I have time.

As a reader, the problem I have is that I cannot tweet your posts unless I open it in chrome. I read your posts via the links published either in your timeline or BIB, whichever I happen to catch on my newsfeed and notif.
They are working through issues of reliability and site structure!
I use Chrome and I have not problems publishing drafts.
I turned off the extensions in my chrome, and haven’t had an issue. So for me specifically it was something I loaded on chrome.
Oh well.
I switched and publish on Edge now.
I have more browsers, but I have not yet tried to publish it from drafts.
It seems to be a hit or miss issue.
I also use Chrome … I also have Mozzila but it’s even worse there …. from what the updates were much better
It is an interesting problem. I am playing around with a number of things to see what is happening…
It’s really interesting … even I try different variants with the help of a woman, but I think that Cromotics works best for me
You have to use what makes you happy.
I use what works best, dear friend
I was a bit late to know some of Virily’s improvements beyond what could be seen clearly, but reading a few posts was quite adding input.
There are several browsers on my computer, but I use Mozilla more.
I try to stay away from this stuff. There are a few who get really mean with comments and honestly, there are too many variables.
As I have written in a post, there are always various conditions of fruits in the basket, we should pay attention to one after another to then choose the best.
I agree, i move on when the fruit is bad.
That is a reasonable choice.
I never publish from a draft. I may save as a draft, just to be able to preview what I am working on, but I go back to the original and post. I am not one to save drafts to publish later. I like to get it all done, in case something happens to that draft. And Safari is the only browser I use.
yeah I haven’t had issues with any specific browser other than the issues I had with chrome. Nothing currently.
I did have problems publishing from draft initially , but I just found that it is working alright now. The latest post of mine was published from a draft.
Excellent, there are writers having this issue. It is awesome to hear from those who are not!!!!!
I am using chrome and its working perfect
Now you have hit upon the reality that I was afraid of. It has to be something I have loaded in my instance of Chrome.
Do you have any add-ins for Chrome loaded? (thank you for confirming my suspicion!)
by the by, the number one issue most people have is variables on their computer!
