Problems with the User Interface

If you experience problems with KBase’s Narrative user interface (e.g., data, apps, or viewers won’t load or the interface appears to be frozen), here are a few things to try that may help:

  • See our list of recommended web browsers to make sure your browser is supported by KBase.

  • Try a hard reload of your Narrative (shift-reload in your browser window).

  • Log out of KBase and log in again.

  • Clear your browser cache or open the Narrative Interface in an “incognito” or “private” browser window.

  • Select the “Shutdown and Restart” option in the menu at the top left of the Narrative Interface. A popup will ask you to confirm that you want to restart the Narrative Interface and remind you to save your latest changes.

What should I do if my Narrative freezes or won’t load properly?

  • See our list of recommended browsers to ensure yours is supported by KBase.

  • Try a hard reload (shift-reload in your browser window).

  • If you’ve used earlier versions of KBase, they may be lurking in your cache and messing things up. Try either clearing your cache or launching KBasearrow-up-right from an “incognito” or “anonymous” window (which doesn’t use your cache).

  • Shut down and restart your Narrative by selecting this option from the top left menu of the Narrative Interface.
