Search Function "Show Verse Context" Occasionally shows old text from already edited texts

Question

When searching, occasionally the verse context shown in the search list shows old, previously modified text. When I click on the verse, the project text is correct. I have found this several times. The edits were usually made days or weeks ago, I believe. This is disturbing because it suggests some of the edits haven’t been registered somewhere in the system. Do you have any thoughts why this might be happening?

To reiterate:

1. I have saved the project and am not getting confused with texts I just edited.
2. The texts I’m looking at were edited at least a week ago. However, the search list contains what was previously there.
3. I am looking at only one project (ie I don’t have multiple projects of the same text going) and getting confused with multiple versions of the text.
4. I believe I found this also in the Biblical terms list. One of the verses has been edited but the original text was in the biblical terms list underneath a certain term. When I clicked on the verse, it was correct in our project.

Answer 1

I can imagine this being disturbing. Can you share a screenshot where the list text shows something different from the actual text?

Comments

I should have captured it with a screenshot. However, I moved on thinking that it was using cached data. I will try to capture it when it happens next. Based on your response, have you not see this problem before?

I’m sorry, but I can’t imagine how it could happen if you are doing a search on the current text. The only way I could imagine a list showing context of old text would be if you had the list up from a previous session. When Paratext does a search, it is always searching the current text.
