I've been trying to add notes, organisations and such to one of my players character sheets and the notes are not picking up most of what I type, if it does then there is a massive delay. I've now tried on both my laptop and phone, nothing seems to fix it. Was just wondering if anyone encountered something similar and if so how did they fix it?
Yep, having the same issue on Firefox (desktop) and Brave (mobile). The only way I figured that mostly works is to open a Notepad document or something, make your edits in there, and then paste the whole thing into the relevant edit pane in DNDB. Even then, it'll take 5-6 seconds to register and autosave.
Been having this problem with all of the notes pages, as well as any attempts for typing in the: characteristics & appearance aspects. Basically anything typed which are not Custom Items/spells.
yep having the issue here too, was just playing a campaign and went to write, tried it on firefox and edge and it's broken on both still. Not sure what has happened but it sucks. hopefully it gets fixed, I edit my stuff a lot.
Are the affected characters open on multiple devices?
It's a site issue. There is a lag which causes the box to not change and update properly when you type. This is due to an error when they made a recent update to the boxes.
Confirmed on Edge, Opera GX, Chrome and Firefox on a Windows PC.

Ahh. Still, it was worth asking as that used to cause exactly such issues, especially for app users.
Definitely worth asking! But unfortunately, this one ain't as simple.

Yup. Went to update, and my notes (Had a lot written in there already) are readable in the character view. But when I try to add notes, they are dark against a dark background... so it's almost impossible to read what I have written there. Also the lag, so when I try to add something, it's dark on dark and really hard to read, and then the lag is obscene. This is on my laptop and pad, different browsers as well. Very annoying. :(
This continues to be very messed up. Our group records a great deal of information in the character sheets. Unless I am mistaken, that was kind of the purpose of the virtual record.
To have it lock up every time we try to make a change, or resorting to bulk cut and paste in the hopes that after 30 seconds of lag time, the desired text populates?
Dotes & Appearance is now working for me in Chrome after clearing Cache again.
I cleared the cache in Chrome and it had no effect in my case.
Issue is appearing in Windows+Firefox, IOS+Safari, Windows+Chrome across all characters I have tested.
Text boxes like Notes, Background descriptions, Appearance are all not functional, text it missing or delayed when typed, occasional characters appear with a delay but it isn't just lag since intervening characters are lost.

The bug is also in Linux+Chrome and Linux+Firefox.

Same issue
I started seeing this same behavior yesterday. Tried chrome and edge on windows and safari on iOS, same behavior on all.
Same issue. I also read that peeps are having the same problem in the Appearance section.

Also seeing this. Been using my notes to keep AL logs and now it's too laggy to use without copy paste from notepad.
Seeing this on Edge, Oprea & Edge Mobile on Android.

+1 on desktop firefox.
