Just a note, we talked about this in the beta version. You need to elaborate on the ā€˜issueā€™ here, as the ability to force HNs outside the highlighted area is a necessity, especially in rural areas. See this (BETA ONLY) post.

Iā€™m still getting a ā€œWeā€™re sorry, but something went wrongā€ (500) with the latest Firefox ESR version.

4

Seems H does not work as the built in shortcut for adding a house number once in the ā€˜Edit house numbersā€™ mode.

This occurs scriptless too.

5

Whenever I make many many edits in one save, it always throws a ā€œSave Errorā€ while the servers actually process the map edits. I have to hard refresh WME in order to see the changes I make. I hope this will be fixed.

This appears to be a pretty decent set of bug fixes, thanks.

Status update on those getting the server errors who canā€™t access WME?

Anything that can be shared about policy discussions regarding the new draconian edit limits for new editors, or regarding the many requests to consider backward compatibility, older OS/browser setups, and smaller (laptop) monitors? At least to acknowledge that these issues have been seen by staff?

7

This was reported in WME beta testing already, according to a staff (QA or dev?) that answered, he thought H was only supposed to open HN Editing mode and never to trigger adding a new HN inside HN Editing. Of course we all know that is wrong and a few people responded that it always worked like that before, yet this still made it to production.

Hi, I think this issue may be a bug, since itā€™s not listed in the changelog: editors now cannot even see HN in segments locked above their editing level.

9

The LA map editors praise you! TBDTs Hallelujah!

10

I am having the same experience with HN option not showing on segments locked above level. Before you could view (not edit) to check, now it seems you cannot.

11

Now that I am actually back into WME since the updateā€¦ yeah, losing ā€˜press Hā€™ to add a new HN is a huge PITA.

STAFF! For seriousness, and Vince says you were warned by manyā€¦ why do you do this to us? So easily avoidableā€¦ :evil:

PLEASE FIX.

12

Not fixed.

13

And this screenshot taken with all scripts disabledā€¦ turn arrows shown after HN edits, no segments selected.

14

We always re-test/check each issue reported as fixed by staff and already made them aware that the fix hasnā€™t worked a few days ago. Thanks for posting and glad that you got your access back.

I found a Windows XP compatible browser working with the latest WME releases : Yandex Browser.

However there is still a bug but with an easy workaround : you canā€™t login directly on the WME page, you have to do it through other waze.com login pages, and then (re)load WME to get logged.

I tried to report that bug through Yandex dedicated form, but itā€™s also buggy and I couldnā€™t send my report ! So I tried to write an e-mail to their public relations addressā€¦ To be continued !

Edit : I also encountered the login problem on the forums access page. After deleting waze.com cookies it worked back again.

Edit 2 : those bugs wonā€™t be addressed as Windows XP is not supported in newer versions.

16

does it support user scripts?

17

Hi AlObaili,

I canā€™t tell you as I donā€™t use such scripts. But as Yandex Browser is based on Chromium, and is compatible with Chrome extensions (they are even automatically imported with your favorites when you install it), I guess the answer is yes :slight_smile:

18

When I choose a route from drives in WME it does not zoom in on it.
Is this related to the new version ?

19

Yeah, youā€™re right. Disabled all scripts and get only this but not my route.

20

Yandexā€™ editor informs me that they neither donā€™t support Windows XP, the latest installable version being 17.4.1, and the current 18.3.1. So weā€™ll have to deal with that bug.
