Question selecting places / autofill / autocomplete

So i chose webtrees, like it, nearly everything is fine so far. Now setting it up for my mother to enter data, so i put in some testdata and the locations.
1: Problem now...I think i understand the hierarchy in the GM Module and set up from the top level: Austria > Vienna > somestreet
Location check is ok.
When in try to enter a location selecting the predefined, i.e. for birthday, in a video i have seen the autofill come up with a list of places on entering letters. It doesn't here.
So i tried the little icon "find place", hit "show all" and it shows me no places to select at all.
What am i missing?
2: At the "My webtrees"-page, every "Module", the "standard blocks" are shown three times. I deleted them twice now, they keep coming back. Strange.
Thanx so much for some hints

2) This happens sometimes. I can't work out why. Just delete them.

Greg has given you his official, programmer's answer, but we have noticed that it happens more often on locked down sites. It would seem that the system gets confused on how to access certain modules and recreates the default each time.At the "My webtrees"-page, every "Module", the "standard blocks" are shown three times. I deleted them twice now, they keep coming back. Strange.
Of course, locking down your site really doesn't make a whole lot of sense when genealogy is such a public, family experience, greatly improved by contributions from people you may be unlikely to guess may be cousins and branches you have yet to discover - and probably won't unless you share. JMHO, based on many, many years of collaborative web genealogy and of course you are welcome to admin and run your site in any fashion you wish.

Oh, i thought it works also in the direction from GM to Database.
And now i see a similar problem with adding a picture i added with upload function. Doesn't appear. Even if i use the searchbox with its name.
THX, seems theres much to learn for me

I set visitors need login = yes. Is that what you mean?
As soon as there is a good basis of data in it, i am looking forward to share the site to our relatives. But now its all chaos in progress.
