Duplicate Chapters appeared

    Though the chapters are organized in the Chapters tab as Introduction and Act I: Chapter 1 (Chapter 1 is nested in Act I), Chapter 1 is also appearing on its own as an un-nested selection.

    This looks bad. Please help me to figure out how I can make the duplicate chapter go away. This seems to have occurred on its own with the latest Comic Easel update.

    If there isn’t a easy update fix, please just let me know which file I can manually edit to remove the duplicate chapters as they appear, if more do appear.

    I would need to see it, can you send me a URL or screencapture on what you’re talking about?

    Thank you for your response. The site is here: https://maxeem.com/lore/

    Note the dark navigation bar and choose “Select Story”. You will see the rogue Chapter 1 floating above Act I and the well-behaving (nested) Chapter 1.

    It could be my idealistic memory, however, telling me that it’s wrong. Not sure I noticed it before.

    Okay. Does this URL work?

    Okay I see the issue

    If you are using parent chapters, you cannot put a # in the ordering for them

    so only order the subchapters

    forward 1
    introduction 2
    chapter 1: 3
    chapter 2: 4

    That seems like a good idea. I removed the ordering from Act I and it defaulted to 0. I then ordered them as you suggested

    forward 1
    introduction 2
    chapter 1: 3
    chapter 2: 4

    As a result, it seems to have placed things in a good order but there is still the *extra* Chapter 1 at the top. Hmm.

    That could be a bug in my code, looking into it.

    Is there a safe way for me to edit a PHP file you suspect, if you find out? Please let me know, I am comfortable manually editing them if I get the okay from you. (I backup my site in a couple of ways.)

    the chapter dropdown widget is the one that i need to fix, but I haven’t found any other cases that have that issue so still looking into it
