DISH, Tx

Postby txemt » Wed Dec 12, 2012 5:37 am

I saw DISH, Tx on the map in north Texas. I edited up and even went to change the town name from "DISH" to "Dish." Everything was fine and dandy, so I thought, until the next day when I noticed everything was back to "DISH." I went back to fix it again, and noticed that Waze was not allowing the change. After clicking SAVE on multiple road segments, I realized it wasn't saving and I have no clue what's going on. I thought maybe it was just my laptop, or something on my end, but LittlestLou had the same problem, so now I'm posting it here to see if there is a fix to this or if anyone else knows what's going on.

Was this just today? Because a day or two ago, or over the weekend, there was a sync error problem where changes didn't appear to be saving, but were, but didn't reflect when you refreshed the map area.

About a week ago. All of my other changes were saved, though. Just not the city name.

Sometimes databases don't recognize a change in capitalization as something needing a save. Save everything as a different spelling, then change it back to the correct capitalization.

I tried again, after about a week or so, and NONE of my changes have been saved. I even tried to change it from "DISH" to "Dish" and it's still not working.

Did you save a spelling change first?

By spelling change, do you mean changing it to something like 'Spoon' and then back to 'Dish'?

Yep. Even Dsh should work.
