SUBMISSION ISSUES- UPDATE

When you're finished reading this journal, please read the comment or possible explanation by below. It might be helpful to those having this problem.

***************************

Submissions erroneously submitted to the "Literature" folder have begun to run rampant. Digital art, Anime, Cartoons, Traditional art, and all others, are showing up in the "Literature" folder. Of course, there are other wrong folder submissions, but Literature is the main problem.

I was recently contacted by a member, telling me that they have tried to be very careful to submit to the correct folder, but for some reason their submissions always fall into the Literature folder. I have contacted dA regarding this mystery, and their answer to me was as follows:

As for the group folder issue, do you have proof that the user is submitting to another folder but it is instead going to something else? Are you able to duplicate this issue when you try? We have not had any other reports of such an issue and cannot duplicate them in our tests. it's possible that user has a browser extension installed that is choosing a different section instead forcing it into the wrong folder.

Yes, I have tested it myself. Each time I submitted to a folder, my submission went right into that folder. It NEVER fell into the Literature folder, and I tried several different folders. If dA can't find anything wrong, then I certainly won't be able to. All I can do is apologize to the members for the inconvenience.

Furthermore, if the problem persists, I promise not to get angry, rude or impatient (which I never did before). Out of well over 29,000 members and over 23,000 watchers, there are only a few of you having the problem. That's not really too bad. If anyone has any suggestions, or if other admins are having the same problem, I'd love to know about it.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
