9 | A few users have reported issues in saving OnlyOffice edits to the Drive of a collab. | ||
10 | |||
11 | We are looking into this. At the time being, it seems that a small number of files are locked by the Drive which prevents OnlyOffice to update these files when they are edited online. | ||
12 | |||
13 | We are actively trying to correct the problem as promptly as possible. | ||
14 | |||
15 | ==== The temporary workaround ==== | ||
16 | |||
17 | When you open a file in OnlyOffice: | ||
18 | |||
19 | 1. check if other users are editing the same file. The count appears at the top right corner. | ||
20 | 1. perform a trivial edit and save | ||
21 | 1. if you are the only user with that file open, you can trust the presence/absence of a warning message from OnlyOffice | ||
22 | 1. if multiple users have the file open simultaneously, you can: | ||
23 | 11. choose to trust the first user who opened it to have checked, or | ||
24 | 11. check in the Drive the timestamp of the file that you just saved | ||
25 | |||
26 | OnlyOffice will notify you when you try to save a file and the save fails. If that happens: | ||
27 | |||
28 | 1. read the message | ||
29 | 1. use File > Download as ... > docx or pptx or xlsx to save the file to your computer | ||
30 | 1. close OnlyOffice. (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)**DO NOT KEEP LOCKED FILES OPEN IN ONLYOFFICE.**(%%) It would mislead others. | ||
31 | 1. rename the file by adding (% style="color:#3498db" %)//**_UNLOCKED**//(%%) at the end of the filename, before the extension | ||
32 | 1. upload the file with its new name | ||
33 | 1. work on this new file | ||
34 | |||
35 | We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding. | ||
