How long does it take before my observations are visible?  I uploaded some SS Cyg photometry recently (last couple of days) and nothing shows up when I search.  I can find really old uploads but not my new stuff.

Data should show immediately

Hi Henry,

Your observations should show essentially immediately. How are you checking - looking at the light curve generator or searching with WebObs? If you are using the light curve generator and the JD was older than the default interval that plots, you wouldn't see them. If you are searching with WebObs and they aren't there, there could be some other problem.

Could you please check your JDs, and let me know? If your data look all right to you, please send me your data file (eowaagen@aavso.org) and I'll take a look at it.

Thanks,

Elizabeth

I will double check

I will double check everything again this weekend.  I am also testing the new website so it's possible there is an issue going through the testing site and uploaded from there.  It all appeared to work but maybe something happened.
