    Not there for me on either FF or Chrome and no adblocker on either, strange

    That takes me there alright but it's the only way I can get there, there is definitely no tab anywhere for me

    Yes intermittent for me too - note I updated IOS just yesterday and that’s when it started so might be a connection between the two - it’s as if there’s an invisible bar at the top blocking me from clicking the message and notification bell - even hitting “boards” at top left can be problematic - if IOS issue surprised others haven’t posted yet as I’d imagine there’s a lot experiencing this issue

    As an addition to above post I cleared cookies and logged in using chrome instead of safari - same issue - nearly the full menu bar at top of screen doesn’t work for me - could just about use the hamburger top left to navigate to here

    Posting in the Liverpool thread in Soccer seems to be dead again. It seems to happen every game now. What's the point in a discussion site if you can't discuss?

    Times out at post comment and eventually gives a cloud flare error.

    I've opened a new one, might make a difference.

    I'm trying to report a post (ironically one which could potentially get boards in trouble) - but the "flag" button on mobile is not working.

    Report function worked just now on desktop. Haven't tried mobile again.

    The post was edited, but is still quoted in a later post in the thread.

    There's another huge thread on the subject anyway so it doesn't make much difference.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,316 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    I know that, I'm reporting the fact that the "Flag"/"Report" function on mobile isn't working



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,378 ✭✭✭✭odyssey06


    As a test, I reported your post on mobile (Android Chrome) and I got the confirmation message ok.

    I noticed that when I hit Flag and started typing, then the buttons got covered by ad \ keyboard and I could no longer see what I was typing. I had to X the ad to see the button to press.

    When I tried to report a post last night, hitting the "Flag" button did nothing at all - no text box, visible or otherwise, came up to type a report into.

    It appears to be working again now

    Tip: When looking at an active thread like leaders debate, keep refreshing the latest link instead of clicking on page numbers!

    This issue has been flagged and is being worked on. Thank you.



  • Administrators, Boards.ie Employee, Boards Employee 2, Boards Employee 3 Posts: 1,455 ✭✭✭✭✭Boards.ie: Mike


    Hi all,

    Has anyone come across any threads with loading issues, missing posts or "something went wrong error" recently. Any screenshots or thread titles would be great!

    Trying to gather some more info for some code changes.

    Quoted posts are rendering very slowly for me the last week or so. Brave on mobile.

    Same for me on pc with chrome. Takes a few seconds.

    Don't expect anything from life, just be grateful to be alive.

    oIn mes

    I was saying (before the jumbled letters issue stopped me), in some private fora, if I quote I get a permission error.

    Yeah, repeat letters/words happening at start of typing a new post. Brave on mobile.

    It looks like the site is echoing the input.

    No but I’ll keep a look out- good to see issue with notifications and messages on mobile being worked on - “desktop” is painful on mobile 😀



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46,868 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    Same as above … quoted posts are slow to fill and indeed there are times when a post is selected to quote it doesn't show when replying. I'm still suffering from the cursor jumping backwards and/or jumbled words being formed at the start of every new paragraph. It's probably well over a year since I raised the latter problem but despite the assurances given nothing has been done.

    Also for the last couple of weeks when I click through from an email notification of a new post in a thread I am taken to a post that is way further back in the thread. Chrome on fire tablet btw.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,201 ✭✭✭✭Hotblack Desiato


    Which makes loading a page take aages if there are lots of quoted posts within it. Especially since there are 50 posts per page.

    I'm partial to your abracadabra,

    I'm raptured by the joy of it all.

    I'm not having any issues with slow quoting. I even quoted this post in case I was losing it and it is still the same quick quote as it always was. W11 Desktop Chrome.



  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 78,090 Mod ✭✭✭✭New Home


    This is what it looks like - it was a simple quote:

    I was going to wait until Friday, when a fortnight passed, to look if there has been any developments?. It is a feature that would have been very handy with coverage of elections!

    I know you can do the below. But an active embed with clickable links (if any would be better?)!

    Hey there,

    Just touching base on these embedded links. The closest I could get was using the 'Insert Media' button, plugging in the BlueSky URL and adding it to the post that way: 

    ?name=Screenshot+2024-12-02+at+3.11.28%E2%80%AFPM.png

    That makes a really stripped-down embed that looks like this: 

    ?name=Screenshot+2024-12-02+at+3.13.00%E2%80%AFPM.png

    So it does create a clickable embed, similar to how @corkie shows above but does not have the appearance that I know most users are going to want. This has been escalated and is being considered a feature request for Vanilla so that will take some time to get through.

    Thanks for escalating. Your method is the same as using the card method on the auto generated links!!

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
