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.

    Does anyone else sometimes share an article etc. with one headline only to have the headline switch around once shared, clicked on, etc?

    Like there's one today on a Bernie Sanders Op-ed, the headline I clicked was "Bernie Sanders: The US must support an even-handed approach in the Middle East" and what I got was "Bernie Sanders: The US must stop being an apologist to the Netanyahu government"

    Is that switcheroo on facebook's end or the media site's end?

    Interesting. gave up Facebook years ago so I jhaven't seen that, but I assume the content creator is responsible for inputting the headline(s) and they chose that one to bypass filters and widen the potential audience.

    Same thing again with the same article, the headline in Google is “Bernie Sanders: The Approach the Israel-Palestine Conflict Needs”
