Problem with adding to and removing from collections

Post by djross »

I added a movie to a public collection but then realised I had done so in error. When I went to remove the movie from the collection (while on the film's page), it wouldn't allow me to do so. Toggling over the collection name showed me that the system was of the belief that a different user had added this film to the collection. I then went to the Collections page, and there it said that I was indeed the user who had added the film to the collection, but it still wouldn't allow me to remove it from the collection. I then went to the page for that collection itself, and once again it wouldn't let me remove the film from the collection.

On the page for the film, it said that the user who had added the film to the collection was iconogassed. I have since messaged the moderator of the collection to notify them of the error and the problem, so no need for intervention there. But there seems to be some kind of bug that led to the misattribution.

Strange -- if this happens again, can you let us know the exact film and collection, so that we can investigate before it's cleaned up? Thanks!
