When working on a manuscript, the Word Count Over Time does not populate with updated data. Mine is currently more than a month out of date. I would expect it to update daily, or indicate the time frame in which it updates.
1. Create a new scene in an existing manuscript 2. Write words in that scene 3. Wait 24 hours 4. Navigate to Manuscript overview 5. View Statistics tab Result: No updates to word count over time Expected result: Word count over time updates dynamically or on a set schedule
Hello there SerendipitousFailure I cannot reproduce this issue and I asked 5 people and all of them can see their word count changing. Can you please show me the structure of your manuscript to see if there is an issue there ? (a screenshot will do)
I am closing this since I have received no response for 11 days, but please respond here if you need further help.
Apologies - I was travelling. How do I attach a screenshot to this conversation?
Upload it to World Anvil and pase the BBcode here you can use the button after the upload of the image to copy/paste it.
Have you written any words in your manuscript since then? - This wordcount at this point updates the next day is something was written the day before.
I have written things several times over several days, yes
I entered more text today, and will update this bug if it has not updated by tomorrow
It did not update
Looking at your screenshot everything you write you write int your "Research Folders" . This is not the folder of your manuscript (the one that has the name of your manuscript. words written outside of the actual document directly under the manuscript or in the first level under a folder do not count. Even worst it looks like you somehow moved your whole manuscript under the research folder? The manuscript folder needs to be on the top level of your work, not inside the Research Folder.
