feral chile Posted April 24, 2020 Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 Hi, I can't reply to any posts, I can click on the add quote, but when I click on the reply box it's inactive. I can see others aren't having similar problems, any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted April 24, 2020 Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 Fingers crossed, it's hopefully fixed now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WS_Jack_III Posted April 24, 2020 Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 Yeah I can't reply via browser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was experiencing an issue this time yesterday but the problem went away for me when I tweaked something on the forums system - so it's very likely that continuing problems are the result of browser caching.

WS_Jack_III Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Also, sometimes my replies disappear when I hit submit, which is annoying having to retype it all out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 i've just raised a support ticket with the software makers about this problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 I think I might have found and isolated the problem, so fingers crossed it's not happening any more. Please let me know if you still have the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 ok, I'll keep on looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 I've just noticed that everyone who's seeing this issue are normal members, and there don't appear to be any reports from the 'gold' members who pay to avoid the adverts (and they're normally quick to mention problems). As the problem is intermittent, my current thinking is that it might be being triggered by something to do with one or more of the adverts. So I've just raised the issue with the ad-house techie for him to take a look into, and hopefully he'll find the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 the problem was (hopefully!) fixed at around 5pm on Friday. Please let me know if anyone is still having this issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareToDibble Posted May 31, 2020 Report Share Posted May 31, 2020 (edited) Hi Neil, I seem to be having an issue. Fine via my phone but not laptop (Chrome). At first the reply box was completely greyed out. Deleted all settings.. cache, cookies etc) and now I’m getting the box but can’t click on it to reply? Best I could do to show this was take a picture of my screen with my phone, sorry. Any ideas if it’s my issue?

DareToDibble Posted May 31, 2020 Report Share Posted May 31, 2020 Just tried a refresh and also coming in via incognito window and now getting the grey box again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 it's probably a caching problem. As you've cleared your browser cache I've just cleared the server caching in the hope that fixes it for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareToDibble Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 Thanks Neil. As soon as I can jump on the laptop I’ll check it and let you know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareToDibble Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 Hi Neil, I’ve just checked and still no luck. It’s gone back to the grey box from my second picture. I cleared cache etc again to double check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareToDibble Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 An uninstall and reinstall of Chrome seems to have sorted the issue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuna Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 (edited) Would be cool if we could have a 'reply to post' button - not just quote - as the walls of quoting can get pretty big sometimes, when people don't trim it down. Obviously we can @user as well, but seems like obvious and easy functionality (obviously so the user whose post it is gets notified; not just a reply to topic) Edited July 23, 2020 by Tuna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatyeti24 Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 I've been having this problem for the last few days on Chrome on Android. I've followed a few of the tips above but to no avail. No issues using Chrome on my laptop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
