How to replicate:

Set up some content

Go into IPE mode

Delete the content (UX note: the fade feels slow here compared to everything else)

Click save

Reload page (or visit the normal panels content admin screen): the deleted items are still there!

Title: Deleting content via IPE interface doesn't stick » Saving content addions/deletions via IPE interface doesn't stick

Update: the same is true for attempts to add new panes via the IPE.

However, updating an existing pane appears to work.

Update: it also doesn't save if I move a pane from one region to another.

I'm calling it "critical" because this is pretty central to the IPE being useful.

I was having problems like this a couple days ago, but committed some fixes related to string transformation that I thought took care of it. This sounds like basic save failures, though, which is a little worrisome. I'll poke at it.

Sam's tweak, indeed, failed to notice deleted panes so was sending the panes back. I went ahead and reverted the tweak, and sped up the fade out for deletion.

I confirm that the problem is fixed for new panel nodes. However, if I try to add or delete a pane with IPE on a node created before the update, the problem persists.

After further testing, the bug persists only on a few panel nodes that I created a long time ago with Panels 2 / Drupal 5. I recreated these few panels with Panels 3 / D6 and they are now ok with IPE editing. Not sure my bug report worth investigating...

In an effort to clean up the many hundreds of open issues in the Panels queue, I'm going over all bug reports. If they haven't been updated in over a full year,
I'm going to assume that they no longar affect any one, and close it. I realise that some issues will be closed, that should remain open.
If this is the case, and you still have an interest in this issue, please just re-open it, setting the appropriate status, and providing exports and detailed instructions for reproducing the error.
