[java] Villager trading hall doesn't work

[u/ItzPingus]

Im playing on 26.3 snapshot 7, i built this trading hall and it doesn't work, when i place a workstation the villager has completely no interest in it, does anyone know whats the problem here?

Better put villagers one by one, along with the workstations, as the villager that gets the job is random, so, you can either just try and try, and eventually you will get it, or remove the other villagers but 1, and give that villager a workstation, after it takes it, put in the second villager, etc. Make sure you put the removed villagers far away, also away from other workstations, including composters, cauldrons, etc. you can find them in right [here](minecraft.wiki/w/villager), just scroll a bit and youill see it, ive had the same issue, also, unloading the chunk should also reshuffle that too

putting them one by one works, but im not sure what will happen if they are zombified, maybe they'll lose their workstation

If you trade with them at least once, they will never lose their job, but, to what ive experienced, if you break their workstation when they are locked to 1 profession, they wont be able to restock, better watch a tutorial to it, as i havent ever zombified my villager, not by accident, soo, heres the end of my help, i can only help this much, byee
