No idea if this is the correct place to put this, but i'm kinda desperate at this point. I have no idea what i did wrong and feel like i'm going insane!
- wanted to try and create sub-categories of custom column #relationships or #characters within custom column #fandom, reflected in the tag browser for easy navigation like how ao3 works.
- was messing around with my custom columns, in case i needed to change something there. in order to change column type, i was forced to delete my existing #characters column.
- sadly this deleted all of the character column metadata that fanficfare had populated my entire library with (this is me being dumb, of course it did).
- waited 4 hours for fff update to re-load that data in for me.
- once finally finished, i look at my character column, and now everything is seperated by & instead of , ?????
- my last character column was "Comma seperated text, like tags, shown in the Tag browser".
- when i realized i'd screwed up and went to re-make the column, i set it to "Comma seperated text, like tags, shown in the Tag browser" again.
- when i look inside the Edit custom column tab, it shows that it is set up as "Comma seperated text, like tags, shown in the Tag browser".
- but in the Add your own columns menu, it says its "Ampersand seperated text, shown in the Tag browser". and again, my entire characters column is showing &'s instead of ,'s. i did not select this.
did i find a bug???? what is happening??? please help. i have no idea how i managed this just by remaking a column. sorry if this is not the right place to ask this, i have no idea how forums work.
