Wishlist Triggers 500 Error

Oh dear! I can't look at my wishlist because it throws a 500 error just opening the page!

If that's a known thing, then great, don't let me interrupt your day. If not...

GEAR:
  • Squier Venus Electric Guitar
  • ember Nina
  • ember Joni

I've not seen that personally, but the whole site is being overhauled so it might just be a temporary situation if Michael and Giulio are changing the wishlist code or gui. Wait a few days and if it persists please reply to this thread. My wishlist link is working fine this morning which is odd if they're changing code. Wouldn't we both get a 500?

GEAR:
  • Roland Juno-6
  • Gibson SG Standard
  • Vox AC30 Guitar Combo Amp

That's what I would have figured too. It's been a few days already, so I'll give it a bit longer and see what happens. Cheers!

I have an update on this. There is, of course, the total number of wishlisted items at the bottom of our profile pages, and a link to navigate away to the wishlist itself.

Wishlisting an item seems to increment this number, however removing an item from the wishlist does not decrement it again. I suspect the source of the 500 is that something is not clearing correctly from whatever the persistent data store is, and that corruption makes everything unhappy.

Is anyone else able to confirm this behaviour with their profile, or is it just my user account affected?

It doesn't seem like this affects anyone else, but it sure is disruptive for me. Is there a way I can escalate this or offer some kind of help to the developers so it gets resolved?

Put a flag up to admins.

GEAR:
  • Roland Juno-6
  • Gibson SG Standard
  • Vox AC30 Guitar Combo Amp

Sorry, I don't know what's required to achieve this - are you please able to point me in the direction of how to flag the admins?

GEAR:

  • ember Nina
  • ember Joni

I already did, I shoulda said that "I put a flag up" -- my bad. I did it through equipboard, if you really want I'll email Michael tomorrow morning.

GEAR:
  • Roland Juno-6
  • Gibson SG Standard
  • Vox AC30 Guitar Combo Amp

I believe we fixed it try now!

GEAR:
  • Fender Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar
  • Big Ear Pedals Woodcutter
  • HeadRush FRFR Go Portable Desktop Amplifier

The 500 is definitely gone, woo! Thank you ☺️

There is still the slightly odd situation that the counter of wishlist items says 12, despite me emptying my wishlist πŸ€”

  • ember Nina
  • ember Joni

Actually, it looks like that's sorted itself out now too. A win all around!

Thanks for the help everyone ❀️

Sorry it took us a sec, I've been busy mixing records and I'm sure the admins are swamped. All fixed now?

GEAR:
  • Roland Juno-6
  • Gibson SG Standard
  • Vox AC30 Guitar Combo Amp

Yep seems back to normal now, though my wallet is a lot less happy that my shopping list works again 😈

Thanks for your help πŸ‘πŸ»
