Bugged Reply Function

submitted by oldblo to TalkDev 2 yearsMay 14, 2022 18:06:18 ago (+4/-0)     (TalkDev)

When using the reply button it does nothing some times. Neither opening or closing text boxes. Other reply buttons in the thread will still work though. Its a hit or miss thing.

I dont know the cause but it is affected by the Continue Thread function.
For example I click reply and it works.
I click Continue Thread on the comment I used the reply button on and the very same button stops working.
From among the newly shown comments I click Continue Thread again and that reply button works once more.


5 comments block

Try opening the link under the comment on a new tab, then reply there. Otherwise you lose your place and start all over at the top.

The shitty reply function is a pretty effective technique to limit the number of users on this site.

Oh ive also had defective reply buttons some times when linking to a particular comment directly.

When I run into that I usually turn it off and back on again.

What? Here is what youve said.
Reload the page to reply to a comment above "continue thread".
Clearly we dont need to do that and I dont see how reloading helps in any non bugged way either. Aside from maybe seeing newly created comments.
Edit: I guess you mean refreshing to collapse the expanded comments will let the reply button be usable again. Yeah I noticed that. Im not sure if that works every time.
