One of our users ran across a strange case with a multi-tab Shortlist story map hosted on AGOL. They have 124 entries on their first tab. When trying to add another entry at this point, if often appears as if two entries are added, then adding another opens the first entry in their list. I'll try to explain. This occurs in both the latest Chrome and Firefox and doesn't always happen. Eventually, there are some JS errors in the console.
Steps:
I've tried deleting the last entry, #124, saving, and adding again, but the problem continues to occur. I created a separate Shortlist map and am into the low 130s for features and haven't seen this behavior yet, so it may be specific to this map.
The story map is viewable at http://umn.maps.arcgis.com/apps/Shortlist/index.html?appid=5a490b24224548d0a57abc075e33bf9b
Has anyone seen anything like this?
Hi Peter,
Can you share your app? I am currently getting prompted for credentials to view the app.

Oops, sorry about that. Done.
FWIW, after seven minutes of waiting for it to finish checking (using the share tool in edit mode), I backed out and shared through the AGOL item view pages.
Hi Peter,
I have taken a look and am unable to reproduce consistently, I have seen it once or twice, but not consistently enough to be able to diagnose. I'll add an issue for this to our repo and keep a look out for it.
And as for the slow loading of the share tool, that is because of the large number of features. The share tool also scans all of the features in your Shortlist for potential issues, so the more features, the longer it will take (in addition to network speeds).

Hi Mark,
Thanks for taking a look, and so quickly. I kind of figured it was too obscure and not-consistently-reproducible to dive into. We might just have them try recreating from scratch, or spin one up a similar test one that gets to the same number of total entries and see if we start running into problems again, on the assumption that the total entries may tie into this. Maybe we'll discover something telling.
Thanks, again.
