As the title suggests, when I create new Lingqs, my number of known words actually goes down by -1 which will eventually mess up my statistics big time.
Also, some words which I am certain I have never encountered before or marked as known are not blue in the text, so I have to go through every sentence extremely carefully just to make sure I am not missing out on any words.
I love Lingq, but these constant bugs are starting to become seriously annoying. It gives the impression that hardly has a bug been reported/fixed that another one appears. And to top it all, they affect aspects of the site that were working well before.
If you select a white word (Known word) and then you take action and create a LingQ of it, that word will be counted in LingQs created statistics but it is no longer a known word and that is why your Known words stats drops by 1. Yellow words (LingQs) are considered Known and are counted as Known words once they reach status 4.
Words that should be blue words appear as known words. Then I add definitions to the “supposed to be blue words” and set the words as status 1, the known words stats drops by 1. I can 't change status of those “supposed to be blue words”, unless I select a definition first. Some words are properly displayed as blue words and some are not in the same lesson. I started noticing the issue about 5 days ago.
White words are considered Known, so if you select a Known word and create LingQ of it, your Known words stats should drop by 1 since a word is no longer considered known, that’s normal. But your LingQs created stats will increase by 1 in that case. If a word appear as white in text, that means that you made it known previously in a lesson and it’s already included in your Known words stats. Or are you saying that you never made these words known?
