I seem to have a grave misunderstanding of how the program works, or ran into an issue.

When I start the docker instance I can go to the web interface and input some links for it to pull. It does this fine. However, once it's done with that import I can't do anymore. I go to add and paste in a link, it takes it, and then nothing. It shows the titles of the links I pasted as "Pending" but never gets past that. Logs show no activity. It's like it's dead in the water. Only way to fix it is to select the recently entered links and click on "Pull"

Hmm can you check the output in data/logs/ and see if there are any errors after the first links finish or when you submit the second links?

Not quite sure what changed but it appears to be working now. I haven't done anything other than not touch it for a day or so.
