When i'm logged-in, I can't view the title page for the film I worked on and (and whose title page was created because of my submission to film festivals via withoutabox.com) -- I can search for it and I see the listing, but when I click on the link it shows a 404 error (film is "The David Whiting story" at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3561068/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

However, when I'm logged out I am able to view the film's title page with no problem.

What the heck is going on? I'd like to edit details on the film's title page, but the second I log in I'm unable to view it. PLEASE HELP!!!

There are two different systems generating the display pages, the traditional one which primarily updates overnight, and a new one that has just been developed, which updates much faster.

When you are not logged in you see the new version of his main Name page, which is, I believe, on the new system, but when you are logged in you may be seeing a page (e.g. combined) depending on what options you have set.

It is also not found on the Pro. version of the site, which is maintained by the old system, but is available on the Pro-labs version, which uses the new system. It should all be available by tomorrow, or Friday at the latest.

Just sit back and wait for the new Name pages to settle.

Same thing...  A new film with me as an editor is listed, and I have the same problem.

I can see it when logged out, the moment I log in and go to the
url, i get an error that the url does not exist.
ODD, very odd.
Odd because I never submitted the information and someone else who is also inthe film that did not submit it, can view it logged in.
Why am I tagged as not abkle too view it logged in to IMDb?

Check the URL where you get the 404. It likely has either /reference or /combined as part of it. They will be either at the end, or before the string starting ?ref that IMDb now appends to the basic URL.

If you are not logged in you will see the new, default version of the Title page, which does not have either of those strings in the URL . This page is now being updated by the newer system that displays changes almost immediately after they have been approved.

If you have set certain options in your site preferences, after you log in your selection will be redirected to one of the other URLs. These pages are maintained by the older update system which requires an overnight rebuild of the site to display the changes. Therefore, the it can take up to 48 hours after the base pages shows up for these to be created.
