How to submit records when "submit" button is missing?

Submitted by kittycparker@g… on

I've just entered a list of records,  added the location to a 10 metre square, and put in  a couple of words of comments. All done and ready to go, but nothing happens when I press the "save" button. I've had the page up for a couple of hours now and made numerous attempt to submit it, but the process won't start. Has something changed, please? I have severely impaired hands and typing is difficult and time consuming, so I'm worried about losing everything I've entered if I navigate away from the page.

Sorry you won't receive this reply in time to stop you from losing the records you have entered, but when the save button hasn't worked for me, it has usually been that there is a compulsory field that hasn't been filled in. Sometimes editing something means you have to re-enter the life stage, so at a guess it could be that.

Yes James is probably correct here. A related issue can occur when the compulsory field is hidden in a collapsed field. We are aware of this issue, and hope to fix it, but ultimately it is what James said, there is probably a compulsory field that has not been filled in, but it may currently be hidden from view in a form section that needs expanding.
