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.

The weirdest thing happened to our keyboard

    Dell laptop
    Windows 10

    I think our child did something to it
    Some of the keys do weird things.

    Eg: the letter "g" now prints the system time & date to the screen.... while in Chrome it has the function of refreshing the page.
    "Enter" key creates the letter "v".
    "F" key now produces the hash # symbol.

    Weird stuff like that.

    We tried switching languages.
    We tried a system restore point

    We are flummoxed.

    Any advise appreciated!!

    Try an external or bluetooth keyboard to confirm it.

    My guess is liquid spill. And a trip to ebay looking for a replacement keyboard. Possibly menus triggered by stuck windows or alt or ctrl keys

    Dell do manuals so you can see if you need to use a screwdriver.
    May just need a credit card to push the plastic retainers at the top off the keyboard back.
