Not automatically merging posts

Just not to overlook this – does it mean that before upgrade, your posts were automagically merged? I am asking because I remember that a (relatively) long time ago this feature was working for me; but it has stopped working some months ago... (Honestly, I have not cared, as with my access rights I can merge any posts anywhere – my bad, probably...)

OT: I am back from holidays, greetings to all

Tested on MS Edge, Firefox & Chrome works all fine so far.

I performed testing with PaleMoon and Chromium on Linux platform – all fine.


Apparently, there are certain issues on “small devices platforms”. @mraleph, would you mind sharing your assumption about the root of the problem? Just out of my curiosity

I'm using internet explorer 9 and nothing works :{

From Desktop, Laptop or Mobile device ?

From desktop or laptop, I guess. The only one mobile platform running IE 9 was Windows Phone 7.5, AFAIK; and these devices probably cannot run well today at all, I am afraid. Anyway, IE 9 is too incompatible with contemporary standards that the functionality of any webpage cannot be guaranteed, unfortunately.

Back-end technologies shouldn't be discussed publicly

But, similar glitchy behavior that I/we experienced with our management portals that has status notifications - it was related to database back-end, number of transactions and connections and priority of delivering those notifications to certain user roles, channels (in-portal notification, email, our mgmt application, sms and call) and devices.

Wherever some front-end and back-end needs to be synchronized as in web I'm getting hair I'm fan of a terminal

Also for me

A new issue

In conversation (now called Direct Messaging) I cannot post a simple reply to previous messages. The corresponding field simply does not exist, there is just a button “Post reply”. It is necessary to reply quoting some message posted before (and, eventually, to erase the quoted content – this is the workaround ).
PaleMoon 33.1.1 and Chromium 120.0.6099.224, Linux platform (Devuan Chimaera) – the same behaviour.

I think it is a regression, from what I recall, it was working during our previous tests.

UPDATE:

Another issue with Direct Messaging

When I try to edit a message M that I have already posted, I receive just a message
“Oops! We ran into some problems.
The requested message could not be found.”.
But when I try to reply quoting the message M, this message shows in the Reply field, as it should

The same configuration as for the previous issue.

Honestly, I do not recall whether I tested this in the testing phase or not.


Anyone is encouraged to reproduce on a different platform / configuration, especially on a small device (I do not use it).

That is a web-design issue

After gory experience with web-designers, I concluded that the best course of action is to regress back to terminal - a coloured one.

Report back to your web-designers and hope. Just hope. And pray that they don't f**k up the back-ends.

Wow. Both issues seem to be fixed, as of now.
If this is caused by some quick patch and not by some solar eruption, hats off

Again, anyone is encouraged to reproduce on a different platform / configuration, especially on a small device (I do not use it).

Sorry, Direct Messaging again

After the last patch, I am missing “The last read date” info after the names of the participants (quite an important information, IMO). It was visible before.

The same configuration as for the previous issues reported by me.

When you read the OCT from an iOS home - install the app as add to home screen - in previous version there was a small back button on the left side at bottom. After the upgrade, there isn't. Can you put it back?

Previously, when you click on a specific post in forums list, you would be pointed to that - as a last one. Now, you are directed to a forum and not even thread.

Also, latests posts are for forum in general - per some time logic - not the logged in user, while previously new posts were actually new content for you.

It looks like it was an extension that was installed and that now is disabled, things should work fine now. We will get the extended conversation MOD installed as soon as possible again.
