Saving to "wrong" collection

In my Italian from English course, I am working with a number of collections, both private and shared, and every now and then I encounter errors on saving a new item. The error message is a generic one, so it is only by experience that I have realized, that most often the error is due to my inadvertently trying to save to a shared collection.

At other times, I belatedly realize that I have been saving items to the wrong collection.

It seems that the default for saving to a collection is the collection last used (even for review, which is not intuitive). I think the default instead should be the collection last saved to.

There are actually a number of issues here:

  1. selection of the default collection in the dialog
  2. improve error messages on error when saving an item
  3. do not present shared collections in the dialog

Thanks for the feedback! That’s all really helpful.

Could you please post or DM the name of a shared collection giving you the error? To be clear - it’s not a shared collection that you’ve created, is that right? Thanks again!

“Ce, ne, ci + other tricky bits! 1/2” is one of them, owned by @Floria7. I wouldn’t dream of adding to that collection, even if I could. :wink:

@Morbrorper - you are more than welcome to add to my collection. Mia casa è sua casa :wink:

Thanks for the followup! We’ll have a fix for shared collections showing up in the collections list up later today. That should also resolve the error message issue. Collection ordering will likely take a bit more time. Anything else in the meantime just let us know. Thanks again!
