The re-organization of the site seems to have introduced a severe bug. I cannot explain why it would have been triggered by the re-organization, but since it manifested itself on Friday, I have to conclude that this is the case. The problem is that some of the groups pages no longer can be edited: If you go to the edit tab of a group presentation page, you get the error: Error Type IndexError Error Value list index out of range The error has to do with the i18nlayer, a wrapper we use to be able to present a document in several different language versions. I do not know the reason why this is broken. In addition, the error message stems from parts of the code which is part of the main server, so I cannot easily fix it. Of course I'll keep looking for a solution, but until I figure it out, here's how you can fix a page that you want to edit: * Go to the page, cut and paste the text into some other application, for example Word * Go to the "advanced interface" by clicking on the small folder icon to the right. * Click on the name of the document (its Type will be i18nlayer). This will give you the error message mentioned above. * In the left-hand column, you'll now have a box called "Languages". Click on the link "Manage Languages" * Delete the language version that you want to edit. * Then add the same language again, using the "Add language" interface. * Copy back the text from the application you saved to in the first step. * Save the document. Now it should be OK again, and you can edit it as you like. I'm really sorry for the inconvenience, I hope I soon discover what is the real problem.
