I got a description from a user, which doesn't make a lot of sense in this context:
"I did change the layout of the page, but after I made that change and saved it, everything was still working perfectly. I put a few ideas of my own onto the page by using the text block feature, which also had zero issues. The last thing I did before saving my work and logging out was add my Oxford University Journal Article. I added it in pdf format, and then clicked done at the bottom of the page; everything looked great. The problem arose about 45 minutes later, when I logged back in to continue my work, and it refused to load the page." So it looks like something happened to the page while the user was not editing it, which makes no sense to me unless shared pages are possibly retaining links to the layout of the original? Another user had the same problem today, which I can give some more information on. The page SHOULD have 6 rows and 2 columns according to the view table. In the views_rows_columns table it only has entries for rows 3-6, and each row only has 1 column. view_layout agrees that there are 6 columns. view_layout_columns also indicates 6 rows, but only 1 column each. So there's a discrepancy between view and pretty much everything else, and in view_rows_columns where entries for the first 2 rows are missing. On a related note, why are there so many tables to track layout? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

As more users encounter this problem (and I'm assuming they will) I will update this report.
