What Wildbook are you working in?
Internet of Turtles
What is the entire URL out of the browser, exactly where the error occurred?
Can you describe what the issue is you’re experiencing?
Public submitters who submit their encounters to Red Sea Project arrive as N/A submitters and not public. I am therefore unable to work on them, edit them and ID them (even if I have a match from another encounter submission). There are also other N/A encounters in the project because some of the interns were logged in the RSPvolunteers account but changed the information in the about you section. I think that IOT is therefore unable to understand where it is coming from whether it is public or from a researcher account and classifies it as N/A. It would be great if I were to be able to edit them.
Can you provide steps on how to reproduce what you’re experiencing?
Submit a public encounter and select one of the Red Sea Project’s projects while submitting the encounter.
If this is a bulk import report, send the spreadsheet to services@wildme.org with the email subject line matching your bug report

I manually updated the user on the URLs you provided to “public.” I’ve also submitted a test encounter to the project while logged out to confirm it’s unassigned to a user by default: 68308a80-a19a-42a0-b76d-fbd0001e992b
Thanks for your patience while we continue to work on this.
Thank you so much. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help and thank you again for all of your work.

Hi @linaelsayed03
Thanks for your patience with this. This has been fixed, with 812 “N/A” encounters now being assigned to the user “public.” Now when future submissions come through from a user who isn’t logged in, those will automatically be assigned to “public.”
Amazing really, thank you so much for all of your work!
