screen_titles Shiny GUI "data" menu not displaying

[charlottemills]

Hi Martin,

Thanks for the package, it is definitely saving time in my article screening process.

I have been using the screen_titles function without a problem until this week, when the "data" tab of the Shiny UI would not "drop-down" for me to choose exit/save/clear. This issue does not seem to occur when I open the app in the browser, only in the intial app (what do you call that). As far as I am aware I did not update anything between when this was functioning and when it stopped working.

Once data is loaded in the app (there is a lag because I have 3500 records) the "data" tab is not functional (does not collapse or expand), although the options within it are, so I can still save/clear/exit. However, if I use the appearance tab and the data tab collapses I am unable to expand it again and can no longer access these options, thus losing all screening in that session.

Relevant session info: R version 4.0.1; shiny 1.4.0.2; revtools 0.4.1; synthesisr 0.3.0; dplyr 1.0.0

This is my workflow after loading packages:

#import screened titles list from file
screened.refs<- read_refs("screened_titles.bib", return_df = TRUE)

#import reference database (4449 titles)
titles_ecoserv <- read_refs(filename = "full_deduplicated_database_ID.bib", return_df = TRUE)

#remove all screened titles from database
titles_ecoserv2<- anti_join(titles_ecoserv, screened.refs, by = "unique_id") 

#screen titles
titles_ecoserv3 <- screen_titles(titles_ecoserv2)

#save progress (screened titles) to file
x<- titles_ecoserv3 %>%
  filter(screened_titles != "") %>% #pull out all entries already screened
  bind_rows(screened.refs) %>% #add new set of screened titles to existing list of screened titles
  write_refs(file = "screened_titles.bib", format = "bib", tag_naming = "synthesisr") #write to file for next session

Please let me know if you need more info or if this is simply an error on my part. Thanks

As quickly as this started it has now stopped so I have closed it.
