[Fixed] New tutorial created every time I load the editor

Hi I’ve just made an anvil account yesterday and this looks really promising.

However I’m running into a pretty frustrating issue at the onset when trying to test out some projects.
Specifically, whenever I try to visit the anvil visual editor at Anvil | Login I end up getting redirected to a tutorial project.

That would be a bit annoying except it creates a new project each time. I can’t seem to control this behavior and I have unintentionally created some 8 or 9 tutorial projects by this point.

I did discover, however, this only happens on the “new editor” (which is no newer than the classic editor for me). I tried to test out the classic editor and this doesn’t seem to have the issue of creating a new tutorial each time I try to visit that page.

Thanks for reporting. We’ll get that fixed.

@nabilzaman1 this should now be fixed
let us know if you’re still experiencing issues

Brilliant, no more issue with duplicate tutorial projects.

Thanks for the quick fix, that was really impressive!

hey i got some problem, how do i fix this?

I’m trying to start with Anvil and I can’t get out of Tutorial. I"m on a Mac. I see reported problems with this in the past that were fixed, but this is happening to me right now.

hi @ginna.stockton and welcome to the forum

and welcome to the forum
i think you didn’t complete step 3:

Change the text of the button when it’s clicked

@handle("button_1", "click")
def button_1_click(self, **event_args):
    self.button_1.text = "Clicked!"

after that change, running the app and clicking the button should get you out of tutorial mode

You are so right! I had changed the button text myself manually and confused that with the ‘on-click’ code. I’m now starting my next tutorial.

Thank you, thank you.

I’ve been doing back-end Python programming for years and decided now was time to learn how to put a front end on it. I expect Anvil to work very well once I get into it.
