At least, it has worked for me. I post in a separate thread so that Bioware and users can find a solution easier for this problem.
Bioware, please, take this into account so that it can be fixed in future releases of the game and web because I think it is important.
The problem is that, in the Spanish version of the game (and I assume, in other international versions), the .xml file that the game generates has accents in some of the place´s names (for example "El yunque del vacío as the Anvil of the void"). If you level up in one of this places with accents, the .xml generates a log with the name of the place and your stats. From that point, the file wont be no longer valid and will stop updating.
That causes an error in the xml (just check for validation in a browser like Google Chrome) causing that the Social Network cannot interpretate the data and showing the empty story tab instead of the log of your adventure. Here is the different steps I did until I manually almost fixed (I insist. I hope Bioware fixes this bug soon as seems a simple solution).
First try: I assumed that the English version of the game would "translate" the .xml once I loaded the savegame. So I downloaded the English language from my Steam version... and it did not work, as the Spanish names do not change and remain the same. FAIL.
Second try: I edit with a regular xml editor the wrong xml where the accents were present (in my file two of the lines were wrong because they had accents). I replace the accents characters for regular letters without accents. I loaded the savegame in an new slot... And it did not work. The game generates a brand new xml with the same errors/accents for each new savegame that you create. EPIC FAIL again.
Third try: Quite tricky. I edit the same xml following the same steps as described in the second try. Before start the game, I let opened the savegame slot were I was going to save but I did not change the file yet. Back to the game, just load the regular savegame and be prepared to make things quick. You need to save in the same slot that you previously did, and inmediately go to your desktop and change quickly the edited xml for the erroneus xml file so that the game uploads the one you want. Result: Well, you can check my profile and see what is present in my story tab. It is now perfect with every single log in it.
Well, not yet perfect. I guess that because of the quick change, the diagnostic page has given me the famous 1005 error with more files upload. I think that this can be resolved although I will have to check it later. The most important thing is that the problem is resolved... And we know what the error was. Now Bioware, please, is your turn to implement soon.
Hope my post helps the wonderful Social Bioware community. Again, sorry for my English grammar mistakes if present.
Best,
T12.
