[support] app doesn't seem to be responding to settings.yml changes

[patcon]

I had the settings app enabled on my one repo (and then globally, just to be sure), and pushing updates didn't seem to have any effect. Am I doing this right?

Tried it from a PR, still no dice.

Also transferred to an org, and tried again, and not working that way either.

Hey @patcon did you push changes to your settings.yml file in master branch?

[patcon]

Yep, I did -- both via PR and directly. Real odd.

Can anyone reproduce?

• fork repo to personal account
• enable settings plugin on repo
• add a newline in settings.yml via GitHub UI

[patcon]

Just tried the above again (minus the fork), and no dice.

let me debug and get back to you.

[knrt10]

I found it. Problem you are facing is beacuse of description. Try removing :balloon: . Try it @patcon .

[knrt10]

Its because after description : the yaml file is reading :balloon: as another key and hence not following format of yaml file. If you want any github icons in description put the whole value in string ":balloon: Some nice one-liner description" like this. Hope this helps you.

omg that was the one field I kept leaving the same in all my tests :) Thanks so much @knrt10, for breaking me out of my stasis!!
