Research Trait Issues

Just wondering if anyone else is having issues with researching traits since the DLC dropped? I have all four skill points in Metallurgy, Stitching, and Carpentry. This should allow 3 items to be researched at once in Blacksmithing, Clothing, and Woodworking. However, I am finding that if I am researching 2/3 traits, I cannot select and research a 3rd. This started with Woodworking, and has since spread to Blacksmithing too.

For the record, each trait being researched is on a different item - I know you can't research 2 traits on the same item at the same time!

I'm winding if it has something to do with using those new speed research scrolls......but I'm not sure.

    I just queued up 3 items in cloth and 3 items in metal on my secondary crafter just before they took the servers down yesterday. So, post patch I was able to do all 3 for two categories.

    However this does seem to affect other players:

    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    @agegarton, I have posted an explanation of the bug and a workaround at https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/4432490/#Comment_4432490

    It should get your research slots sorted out.

    I will give this a try today - probably via your addon. Really appreciate the support!

    Just FYI for everyone, on the linked thread, above, Zenni has confirmed that they are looking into the bug.

    Just wanted to chime in to say that trait research is bugged for me too after the HotR release, for one of my characters and one item. If I remember correctly, I had just started the research for a trait on that item after the DLC came out and used a research scroll. The timer should've been at something like 25 days but the in-game UI now says that this trait is "researchable" (and not being researched anymore). The UI claims that I have 2/3 research slots in use, but just gives an error if I try to start any new research.

    Just FYI to everyone - there is a confirmed bug that will be fixed in this Monday's incremental patch - confirmed by the delightful Gina on another thread.
