Stephen Thomas commented on SQ-546:
-----------------------------------

Was able to recreate the problem.  
Here are the steps:
1) I uploaded "The Sadie Show", 
2) I remixed (added one picture) and uploaded with the Project Name:"The Fred Show"
3) I logged (to the Website) and made "The Fred Show" public
4) I went to showcase Everyone and viewed by date and saw "The Fred Show"
5) I logged out and went back to Showcase Everyone and viewed by Date and did NOT see "The Fred Show"

FYI, when Logged into the website, "The Fred Show" shows that it is a remix of "The Sadie Show" nice touch and this is a good use of the URI being constant.

I will be attempting to fix the problem with "Fraction Tools" as I would like to have that loaded and visible to all in the Showcase, if I can't I would appreciate an Administrator fixed the issue for this one project.
Thanks.

> I believe there may be an issue with using only the URI that's generated when you are replacing a project.
> Here is a Use Case: 
>   1) I load a .pr called "My Proj 1" 
>   2) I then want edit that to make a new creation I want to upload.
>   3) I then upload the "new creation" with a new Project Name
>   4) Both projects will have the same URI
> It was stated in SQ-534 http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-534 that 
>     new versions replace the older one automatically, unless people start from scratch. 
>     The system's smart enough to know you're replacing a project. There's a URI that's generated when you save the file in Etoys 4. It stays constant through all versions, even if the title is changed.
> Then how do I upload a "Remix"?
> Found this when:
> I uploaded a project "Fraction Tools v1beta" which was a remix of an earlier project I had uploaded. I forget the original name, but it now shows up in my "account" as "None" with the latest upload as opposed to the original version.
> I tried deleting "None" and it seemed to take, but then it re-appeared (this may have been after I did another upload of "Fraction Tools v1beta"
> I tried re-deleting 'None" and it seemed to work, but the image for "Fraction Tools v1beta" on my account, project and everyone page (when I'm logged in) is a broken image indicator, when I click on it, the .pr file loads.
> Also during this I had tried to make the new version Public, and while it seeemed to show a state of Public in my account (as evidenced by the "Make Private" button") when I logged out I could not see the project.
> I will leave things in a funky state on my account for now, until I can be sure I can re-create the problem at will or I get confirmation that the problem is understood and re-creatable.
> I have posted this as Critical as I do tend to remix and encourage my students to due the same.
