Bulk add part attribute fails

[cjconroy]

I have a series of phalli that are in arctos as preserved in formalin and preserved in ethanol. Now, they are cleared and stained. I searched for the specimens, went to manage parts, used option 4 to add cleared and stained attribute to all of them. Click the button. Nothing happens. Is this a known problem? I tried this in front of Michelle Koo and she did not see any mistakes on my part. MacOS, Chrome. MVZ specimens 233124, 233130, 233131, 235821, and 235842.

Yea, sounds like it....

Thanks for fixing my records, but what is the solution? These tools just look broken and no way to discern what the problem is.

tools just look broken

They're not, they work for me (and so should work with a standard browser on a decent network within certain limitations - a fuzzy line, but certainly a few records are on the safe side of it).

(I can't ask you to try in test because https://github.com/ArctosDB/internal/issues/326).

what is the solution

Component loaders are much more scalable (the expensive stuff can happen in bite-size chunks), are easier to debug (the important stuff happens where I can see it, not in your browser), and can do all the things the 'manage' tools do. I'd fully transition to them if that was up to me.

Noted in #8014, nothing else to do here.
