Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

AFAIK both ways they distribute news from local news sources and also provide they’re own reports.

They are non aligned news gathering agency's, they have a network of locally based reporters/journalists who file copy which is turned into ready to run packages which are then distributed to clients in all types of media and business. Data gathering is a big part of thier role now.
