Title: Posts Disappearing
Post by: Mikeo on Aug 24, 05:44 PM 2010
Hi Victor,

I was unsure where to report problems, so I put it here.

I think this is the 3rd time this has happened to me. After posting a reply, it does not appear in the thread. It just disappears.

The latest was today, replying in the "Victor's Tipping Service" thread.

It is not a big problem as long as I remember to first make a copy of my post, so I can repost it if necessary. Of course, this time I didn't remember.

I just wanted to make you are aware of the problem.

Thanks
Michael

Remember there is a forum feature that bounces the post if there are new replies in the thread while typing it.

Which browser do you use? Some browsers may not handle it well.

Why does it exist? It is there to help users look better when replying and to avoid redundancy in the thread.

It is on by default for everyone, it but can be shut down per-user.

Go to your "Look and Layout Preferences" (in profile)

link:://rouletteforum.cc/profile/?sa=theme (link:://rouletteforum.cc/profile/?sa=theme)

Check the box "Don't warn on new replies made while posting."

[box title=Profile][attachimg=#][/box]

Hit "Change profile" and all your post will pass straight to the thread without checking for replies.

You may want to either manually review the thread after posting or ultimately change to a more modern browser! (I use google chrome and this feature works a charm).

Cheers.
Victor

Thanks Victor,

I wasn't aware of that feature. I guess I just glanced over and accepted the defaults without looking at them in detail.

I use Firefox.

I'll change the option and give it a try.

Thanks
Michael

FireFox.
Best web browser since sliced bread.

Umm,
Not sure I can.
IE is standard.
Then there is IE Chrome.
FireFox stable.
Just like it I suppose.

'Opera' is also quite good, IMO.  Ken

I use Firefox, but then I can't use IE even if I wanted to (not having Windows).
