this bug is really annoying

same issue here. I opened my older chats and the same bug affected them. I cannot edit previous messages and have the whole 0/x issue with often only two viable branches.
ALSO when I make say, three generations and go back it resets to 0/3 and only flicks between the first gen and the second gen. the third one is lost

I also have the same problems as all of you. I can’t do nothing so I can’t modifie/edit anything (mostly the first prompt in a new chat) and I have 0/x when I use GPT-4o mini and GPT-o3-mini but works fine when I use GPT-4o (I don’t have the 0/x thing but the rest don’t work). This is so sad and annoying for me cause I create fanfictions with it and now I can’t do anything in fear something bad happen. Some of my old chats don’t have the 0/x problems while others have it.
It came back to normal for me like 3 hours ago and I closed the website on my phone. I got back on it 2 hours later and it’s not working anymore.

My edit button has also disappeared within my Custom GPT that I’ve been writing & editing with over the last several days, even early this morning EST. Now the edit button is gone in the Custom, but still shows in the main 4o.
It doesn’t work properly even in 4o.

No, there’s dozens of other people with the same problems.
It has to do with the message counter (probably), that’s PROBABLY why the edit button isn’t appearing. Hopefully it’s fixed soon.

Hopefully this is resolved soon. I was able to work around it for a bit by generating another response, then the edit button would reappear when it said < 1/# >, but now that’s no longer working.

The same thing happened to me yesterday, because of this error I lost 90% of what I wrote. Now I have a zero post with 6 posts, of which only 2 open, and one post generated by mistake gpt mini. Horrible. I lost not 2-3 last posts, I went further thinking to fix the problems and scrolled to the top of the page and ruined everything.
Please give people their stories back!

Any updates on the issue?
Nope. Everything is still broken, but the bug got reported internally. No news from them. It’s frustrating, but I’m optimistic that the bug will be fixed soon.

I hope so man. I had an important chat thread leading on from the 2/2 reply that ChatGPT gave but I cannot access it anymore since it shows 0/2.

Everytime they update there are always bugs. They should test these ui updates before they are even added to the public website

Duh, it’s been like a few days.
I mean, last time, Chatgpt would not show regenerate for threads.
I feel like it’s time we boycott ChatGPT till they fix themselves, honestly.

can this please be fixed. im sorry the frontend team at openai really sucks
It’s been almost TWO days, no, it HAS been 2 days, and they still have not rolled out a fix. I’m starting to get frustrated.
But again, I’m trying to be optimistic.
I’m just glad I archived my stuff when I realized there was a bug. Don’t want to take any chances there.
The have acknowledged that there is an issue and have been investigating it for the past hour. Though whether “Issues with free tokens on traffic shared with OpenAI” is related to the edit and regeneration problems or not is the question.
I’d be pretty ticked if they were working on something that had nothing to do with our problem.
Update great news for you, 12:50 PM 19/03/2025, they fixed this bug, but you need to start a new chat. In the old chat the bug still exists. It work for me. This is looks like read only error by somehow.
My way:
- Start a new chat;
- Ask chat GPT: “Why is the live edit button in canvas blocked?”
- Test every case that chatgpt set we should check;
- Reply result for chatgpt to let it know;
- Ask chatgpt: “How do I check account and edit permissions for this?”;
- Continue ask chatgpt to: “create a canvas for me to test”;
- Test it, it normal and edit button in canvas not being block anymore.
