I had a contribution that was approved and released into the database on Oct 13, and the profile's notes even state "Profile Contribution Approved Oct 13 2008  2:16AM"

The problem lies in the fact that it still says "Received" instead of "Released" as is normal on the contributions page. There have been 10+ later contributions already approved/released above it. If I click on the contribution in question, I still get the Edit and Withdraw options also. Is this just an approval fluke? I can't ever remember this happening before.

I had it happen last week as well. Profile submitted on 10/08/08, Approved on 10/10/08 yet still shows as received on my contribution page. I PMd Ken about it a couple of days ago but as of yet, he hasn't even read the PM. I hope that's because he's feverously getting the beta ready for release on Monday   .

Now it's changed from "Received" to "Declined" (in the notes also) despite the fact that's it's actually been approved and released into the database previously:

Profile Contribution Approved Oct 13 2008  2:16AM

Profile Contribution Declined Oct 16 2008  9:05PM

Curiouser and curiouser!

I had a Profile submission last month that was initially Approved (data)/Declined (scans).  I PM'd Gerri about scans and she reversed Decline for the scans.  The scan became available but it never changed from Declined.

I asked her about this and this was the explanation i got back:
Quote:
"When I go back and re-evaluate items, I really do decline part of it, because it has already been accepted."

I didn't bother to replay with a "Huh?" because as long as she understood what was going on that's all that really mattered. 

Perhaps the Decline is how they flush it glitched status like yours.
Bad movie?  You're soaking in it!

The Cole's don't have time to read there PM's anymore (swamped, ... )
The only contact they now use is (if I understood Ken?):
Please use the "contact us" link at the bottom of this page instead of a PM

Could this be you're browser cache? settings when to refresh a page?

I think so, at least that was my initial hunch after seeing the declined status earlier.

Nope. I've checked it in both IE and Firefox. 8ballMax had the exact same thing happen, so I'd wager this is just a rare approval occurence.

I've got one that has had the same thing happen.  It's been released, yet was always in "Received" status until today when it now says "Declined".
