Deleting a column DESTROYS all course data!

Hi Memrise-Team & everyone,

I just deleted a column from the course I have been working on for some weeks now. The colum was successfully removed, but ALL word pairs has now been set to the values of the first line. Every single one, in all Levels that use this database. The second database was not affected.

So, a course that originally looked like this:

red | rouge | #ff0000
blue | bleu | #0000ff
green | verte | #00ff00
yellow | jaune | #ffff00

… will look like this after the third colum is deleted:

red | rouge
red | rouge
red | rouge
red | rouge

The column in question was a real column, not an attribute column (I don’t now whether that matters).

I really hope that the support team can restore my data, because I don’t think I’ll bother rebuilding the whole thing. And until this bug is fixed: Better leave your columns alone:

Cheers

Great to hear that’s fixed. Feel free to tag me if you have anymore problems. A change of this scale doesn’t come without some risks and some bugs potentially sneeking past us.
