Description Liangent 2014-04-20 13:08:10 UTC 
Only happens to my account. I tried a test account and it seems not affected.

After I changed my preferences and submitted the form, it appears to be successful, and new preferences are shown in the returned form, but it seems not saved to the database, that is, behaviors of the site are not changed, and when I open a new Special:Preferences page, old preferences data are shown.

Hmm sometimes it works but sometimes it doesn't.

After some experiments by watching https://zh.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&meta=userinfo&uiprop=options&format=jsonfm , it seems that at least in some cases, new prefs are saved, but they get reverted soon... Weird.
Comment 2 Andre Klapper 2014-04-29 03:42:37 UTC 
Liangent: Are you aware of any other zhwiki users who experience the same problem?
Comment 3 Liangent 2014-06-14 17:58:33 UTC 
I haven't heard any other user report, but I'm still experiencing it.
Comment 4 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2014-06-14 18:42:07 UTC 
Are they random preferences or specific ones?
