My progress disappears

Hi everyone, I’m new to Go and I started with the “Learn to Play Go” section. However, when I tried to continue after a break, I found that my progress had disappeared and I had to start again from the beginning. What should I do? Any ideas? Thanks anyway.

Thanks :slight_smile: Yes I have registered a couple of days ago. I sign in with my username but i cant see my progress

It should look like this.

See blue lines.

When you open a paragraph within a chapter, you get more specific progress info.

And at the bottom: you can reset your progress.

Welcome back to ogs ^^

My best guess is that the progress has disasppeared because the “learn to play go” has been updated with new content somewhat recently. But i’m not sure >__>

No, my progress didn’t disappear.
See my previous post.

Note that progress is stored on the device, so if you use a different one (or different browser) it might not be there.

Also, you need cookies enabled.

If these all seem not to be the cause, please let us know what device and browser.

Thank you all for your help. I have tried playing on different devices: a laptop with the Firefox browser and an Android smartphone. I think that’s the problem. I don’t find it practical, but in future I should just choose one device.

Trivial things like saved chat messages or board and stone theme is fine, but I would definitely want my learning progress to be stored on the cloud rather than locally.

Yeah after I typed that I thought “hmm am I sure? I think I would want it server-side”.

But - it seems we do store it locally.

And - we do have storage-support to do it server-side I’m not sure why we wouldn’t turn that on :thinking:

(other than the server-side storage support is new-ish and not-used-much, so some risk there)\

A change just went in to fix this - lesson progress is now saved server-side.

As long as you save some progress on your most-recent device first, logins on other devices should now pick up the recent progress.
