Description field story shows different content between editing and viewing

[Peter Mol]

If something similar has been asked/posted before then I'm terribly sorry but I'm unable to find any similar issues on Jira.

I have multiple stories in our Jira environment. At first I was using Google Chrome and noticed that when editing the "Description" of a story I was getting the last known version that I had edited for that particular story, even though a colleague of min had changed it in the meantime. 

Switching to Safari resolved this issue and I decided not to pay any more attention to it.
However since today I'm experiencing a similar problem in Safari, on editing a new blank story it's being filled with the contents of the previous story I was working on...

I've already cleared the browser cache etc. but none of this seems to be resolving the issue. 

Hope the above makes sense and hopefully somebody has a solution.

Thanks in advance :-)

Hi @Peter Mol ,

Jira stores your last edit text in local storage of Chrome. Try clearing the local storage from developer tools menu of chrome as below.

Hi @Mehmet A _Bloompeak_,

That seems to be working for now 👍

Thanks for your time.
