home node bio issue

Has anyone had any success updating their home node? I may be doing something wrong but when I update my "User's Bio," the update doesn't stick. The page comes back with the info still in the textfield but when I go to my home node, nada; and when I go back to edit, the field is empty. Is there a lag? a bug? a clueless user?

    I introduced a bug which made the entire Monastery mostly read-only as far as updates were concerned. The bug has now been fixed.

    Sorry. A rather serious security problem had to be addressed. More details will be coming as the problem is better resolved.

    I can confirm that I have the same problem. Just tried making a small change to my home node, but the change was lost.


    Everything went worng, just as foreseen.

    I am experiencing the same problem. The change is made in the text field, you submit the changes (with or without the 'this is a significant update' checkbox checked), the text in the textarea changes, but not the text on your homenode.

    I was able to update my homenode yesterday, so this seems like a recently introduced bug. Is anyone able to update their homenode?

    I too am having this problem, and do not believe it to be a new one (for me anyways). I have been trying off and on to update my home node for at least a month now (I should have reported it long ago, my appologies). I have not had any other problems with submitting forms across the site, so I'm not sure what is up.
