@jfischer91 , thank you for raising this issue. I and my organizational colleague have experienced the same issues with story maps. Our issues began on Friday, 24 June ’22. Our troubles were similar. The maps would initially appear, and then after a first scroll through most of the story map, the inset maps would disappear. In the editing window, it would not allow us to “place map.” We found similar issues in the ESRI community*, but we too wondered if the bug originated from the recent update.
These issues persisted whether or not the user was viewing an editing or published version, had an AGOL account or not, used Chrome or Edge, use an incognito/private versus normal browser, had ESRI experience or not, or inserted text or not. *Links to maps exhibiting symptoms or screenshots can be provided upon request. I have attached a screenshot of the issue as well.
@YoannPalacio , I tried your map and had a similar user experience to what you described. This matches the issues my story maps are showing.
@OwenGeo , thank you for the update. Our organization relies on story maps to fulfill contractual deliverables, so your swift attention to this issue is much appreciated. Regular updates would be a boon as well. Let me know if I can provide any more information to help the swift resolution to the debugging. Thank you!
