Can't get remote edit to work
-
Hey Folks, I am a teacher and I’m trying to make it so my programming students can collaboratively create Scratch-like apps. Creaticode offers remote edit, but I can’t get it to work. It seems like I’ve tried everything. I had two students each login. One created project and Shared it (we tried both as unlisted and as a friend). We were able to email the unlisted link to the other student and they were able to click on the link and See Inside the project and they were able to Request to Edit. The original student then accepted the request. But then the remote student could not see any edits that the original student was making. The hint that something was wrong was that the original student was still working on the draft project but the remote student had red buttons at the top of the screen that said 1.0.0 (Published) and Read-Only. We tried many different things but could never make it so that both students could edit the same project at the same time.
On a side issue, I had one student add the other student as a friend. He could see the friend’s account, but he could never see the project that the original student Shared with Friends. We went into the remote students My Stuff and there were no shared projects listed there. He went into the original student’s page and there were no shared projects there.
It seems to me that Remote Edit is just broken (and maybe friend sharing too?). If it is broken, please let us know. If it is working, I could use some docs on how to troubleshoot.
One last note. I tried to duplicate remote edit on my own teacher computer. I logged in to two different chrome browsers and tried sharing a project with my other chrome profile and I had the same problem as described above.

Have you tried so that the person that made the project is on version 1.0.0, or the latest version?

This will be fixed later today. The issue is that recently we switched to a new versioning system, so the owner is editing the “draft” version while the guest can only see the shared version.

@info-creaticode Awesome! Thank you so much!
