If you have a save game from just before the January transfer window opens then would you be able to upload the save game to our cloud service? Details on how to upload can be found via the link below. 

Could you also let us know if you had started this game in pre release beta or full release? 

Cheers,

Ben

Any further updated on this, I am having the same issue. Signed a free transfer, rules state can be registered at any time, but the registration screen is not allowing me with the button showing testing changes only.

 

I have a save uploaded to the cloud.

Any further update on this as it is still happening. It seems as if, if you are out with the transfer window it gives a greyed out testing changes only option, It is fine during a transfer window, but considering you as supposedly able to register free agents at anytime, this is a bit of an annoyance, especially after you have signed a player, then cannot play him, and then the player start to get unhappy.

I am also getting the "Testing Changes Only" Problem. And we have the restricted transfer window up for MLS. If you unregister them, It won't let me register them again. Causing our whole team being unregistered! This is game breaking!

Any update on how this can be resolved? I am experiencing the same problem when trying to register players for a competition outwith the original selection.

We are investigating an issue where the 'Testing Changes Only' option is being displayed when the user should be allowed to register players. 

If you have a save game where 'Testing Changes Only' is present when the user should be able to register players then please upload the save game to our cloud service. A save game from before the registration window in question opens would also be very helpful. 

Details on how to upload can be found via the link below. 

Cheers,

Ben

I am also having this issue. The save game file I have uploaded is called 'Daryl Stewart - Rangers (v03).fm'. Any help appreciated.

It looks like you are outside of a registration window. I've continued your save game to the opening of the transfer window on the 9th June and from that point the user is able to register players again.

Thanks for the save game. 

I continued your save game one day and the 'Testing Changes Only' option was removed and user was able to register players again. Does this resolve itself if you continue one day? 

If it doesn't could you try clearing your cache to see if this resolves your issue. As this helped a user who had encountered this issue in the past. Details on how to clear cache can be found via the link below.

I also have this exact same problem and I was wondering if I could get it fixed.

The file is called "Eseosa Edomwonyi-Obasuyi - Arsenal.fm"

 

Thanks for the save. I continued your save game one day and the 'Testing Changes Only' option was removed. 

Is this issue still present for you when continuing the game? If so try the cache clearing solution posted above. 

Cheers,

I just created this account so I could say that it's came up twice in two games for me and I've had to restart. This is ridiculous, please make this a priority.

If you are outside a valid registration window then the 'Testing Changes Only' button will appear as the user is unable to make registration changes at this point. Once you are in a valid registration window then you will be able to make changes again and the 'Testing Changes Only' button will be removed. 

If you are inside a registration window and you are still encountering this issue and the steps detailed previously in this thread do not resolve your issue then please upload your save game and we will take a look.

Hi,

I am also getting this error. It just says Testing Changes Only, and I've tried going forward a day or two.

Also unsure if related but every single club is playing a weakened team? I had Utd and Liverpool as my first two games of the season and both put out incredibly weak XIs. I have looked at the scores and goalscorers for the whole match week and every single club seems to not be using their best players.

I've uploaded my save. It's called 'Sam - Palace.fm'

Thanks

I have holidayed for a day and it has kind of fixed itself, but the clubs have only registered the remaining spaces they had left and not removed the random youth players. Chelsea for example haven't registered Kovacic, Chilwell, Werner, Havertz or Ziyech. Unsure if this corrects itself?

 

EDIT: Ok so just an update. I went to the end of the window and all clubs have now registered their best players. Still quite annoying that there were weakened teams for quite a few games though.

Thanks you for the save. We are looking into the issue where 'Testing Changes Only' is incorrectly appearing. 

The issue with players not being registered for the opening games of the 2021/2022 season is something we are also investigating.

Hello. I have encountered the same problem as issued above. Me and my friend play on an online server together and this happened. We have paid for the online editor so that we can registrate player at any time - due to us making transfers at anytime in the season. 

This is literally destroying 100 hours of playing. You HAVE TO FIX THE BUG. Dont pretend we are morons saying: "you can't register outside of the transfer window...". We have been playing this for 15 years (most of the people in this thread). You are supposed to be able to register free agents: and the whole purpose of BUYING your trash-online editor is to be able to manage the game the way you want. Fix it. And give feedback, this ruined my evening. You have been getting a lots of messages here - which indicates that a huge amount of players not being here on the forum also entcounters this problem.

I'm also getting the testing changes only when trying to register players for European competition. It works fine though when registering players for league places. I was managing Rangers and it was fine in the first season but in the 2nd season i then got this message. I have tried everything mentioned from clearing caches to going on holiday but it doesn't change. I have setup another profile to manage another team in PSG just to check to see if it works but it's still the same. I have also deleted steam and fm21 and redownloaded but with no luck. When will this be rectified? as it completely ruins the game when managing teams in European competition. Please reply ASAP, thanks!

Sorry you have encountered this issue. If you have a save game which shows the problem would you be able to upload to our cloud service. Details on how to upload can be found via the link below. If you also have a save game from before you were asked to register your European squad then that would also be helpful.

Hi Ben

I'm not sure on how to upload my save even though i have followed the instructions. I'm not too computer savvy. The issue on this forum as been going on since the 08/12/2020 so going on to 2 months. As it appears to be an issue for many users what fixes will be put in place to fix this issue and when will this be?

 

Thanks

Please stop with the "Please upload logs" stalling tactic. You know what the problem is. Surely your QA department has reported this same issue. When are you going to fix this?

It is not a stalling tactic . We are aware of a couple of issues causing this which we are working to fix. 

One occurs in certain scenarios where the user has navigated through several transfer windows and has not save/reloaded. One is in regards to the user being unable to register free agent signings outside of registration windows. 

The reason I ask for a save game is to make sure users aren't encountering this in a scenario we have not got covered.

Hi Steve, as mentioned above we are aware of some scenarios where this has occurred and are keen to get this fixed for users in a future update. I've not seen a report or not had a save game with this problem in a Champions League registration window so would be keen to look at your save. 

Once you click on the link to the SI cloud link you will presented with this page (see below pic) if you click on the 'Click to select files' text this should bring up a window  which you will be able to upload files from. You will need to find where your FM save games are stored , for example Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2021\games. From here you can drag your save game into the box on the cloud and then it will upload. From there we will be able to download it and look into what is causing the issue. 

Let me know you how you get on. Happy to help further via private messages.

Thanks Ben, i have uploaded my Rangers game save. Brian Laudrup - Rangers (v02).fm

As i have noticed, it automatically registers players after the transfer window closes but it doesn't include new signings so once your initial players leave/retire you will be left with no players registered. i hope this helps to try and get this rectified.

Thanks

Is there a workaround for the "unable to register free transfers" part of this issue? I tried going on holiday for one day and it seemed to make no difference.

Update: Yes there is (found on a different thread about this issue)! Just put them into your match squad (so don't filter out unavailable just for this match) and when you advance into the match day screens they are automatically registered. You just can't do it yourself on the squad registration screen.

Thanks for the save game @Steve round 

I've taken a look at your save game which loads on the 14th July and can see when going to the Champions Cup registration page that the 'Testing Changes Only' button is present. Two days later on the 16th July a Champions Cup squad registration news item is generated into the users inbox,  when accessing the Registration page from this news item I am able to register a Champions Cup squad (see below pic) 

The Champions League registration works differently to the league registration. With league registration the user is able to make changes to the squad at any time up until the close of the registration window. With the Champions Cup registration the user is only able to make changes on specified dates, which is when the registration news item will come into the users inbox. If accessing the Champions Cup registration page outside of one of these registration dates then it will correctly show 'Testing Changes Only' as you will be unable to submit any changes. 

There are a number of Champions Cup registration dates throughout the qualification stage, for example there will be one on the 19th July which will give the user the opportunity to make changes and register any new signings etc signed throughout the window. 

Apologies if you knew all of the above. Could you confirm if you are seeing the 'Testing Changes Only' button when you respond to the Champions Cup registration news item on the 16th July?

Same issue here, tried going on vacation 1 day then 2 days, tried removing the cache and preference folder. I noticed it seemed to happen sometime after a hurt player was recalled from a loan, but not sure if that was just a coincidence or the trigger.

 

Added two files, Brent Finnell - Working Reg.fm (file pre-issue) and Reg Issue.fm (file with issue)

I'm having the same issue.

Can't register anyone during winter transfer window for league. Tried clearing cache, holidaying but nothing works.

Uploaded save game name "Evren Köybaşı - Fenerbahçe.fm"

 

Thanks for the save. We are aware of a scenario in Turkey that can cause this issue to occur, we are working on a fix for this. If you reload your save and continue one day then this should remove the 'Testing Changes Only' button.

Thanks for the save. When I load your save game the Squad Registration page has the 'Confirm Selection' button available not the 'Testing Changes Only' button. 

We are aware of a scenario that can occur when managing in England that causes this problem. We are working to resolve the problem.
