# Published survey not reflect changes

Asked by dsuarezn on 2016-09-12

Good day for all!!
After some days of data entry operation, we note that in our survey have many fields marked required, then we modified de survey and publish this changes (leave fields not required), the publish take a long time to complete, at the final appears an exception, given click in ok and finally the system anounces that the survey is published, then we capture some data but cannot obtain de desired behavior, the fields still appears required

Hi,  
Can you please try to restart Collect? Probably an error has occurred during the publishing and you will continue to see your survey as "Temporary" and not published.  
We will contact you using your private email so that you can share with us your survey and we can test it, if you want.  
Thanks,
