i post reply, it does not show up until I manually refresh page

@sdetweil humm yes i have the same problem

where would I use this? and why?

some developer use this feature for showing wildcard for displaying stats and link directly for the purpose module
for me, i use it on new module advert and when click it open a new page to my github account

BKeyport

Browser: Brave (Chrome based): Version 1.7.92 Chromium: 80.0.3987.163 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Post reply with theme other than default, doesn’t show right away, don’t clear out the typing/preview windows upon reposting to same topic, it was so bad that I had to navigate away from forum to see post, a simple reload didn’t fix it.

Github cards don’t function.

edit: Now I’m frequently getting random 503 errors.

sdetweil

@BKeyport 503, refresh too soon

i do not get relief from restoring back to default profile

@sdetweil “Card” is the method used to show github links in new modules,

card:BKeyport/MMM-Multimonth

used to provide a cute little hotlink to https://www.github.com/BKeyport/MMM-Multimonth for instance.

sdetweil

@BKeyport put that text in a message posting?

with brackets outside of it - [ card: ]

I have the option “After posting a reply, show newest post” checked in my settings, yes.

And for this very reply now the text of my last reply from five days ago was pre-filled again in the reply box.
I was logged out for several days now.

I guess we need some systematic testing to narrow this down. But sdetweil tried already all cases I could imagine:

log off and on again -> no change for me
clear cache and cookies -> haven’t tried yet
restart system -> no change for me
use different browser -> no change for me
use different OS -> no change for me
use different hardware -> no change for me
use different account -> haven’t tried yet

I think, everything but a new account was already tested by Sam without success. Any more suggestions?

Form Android with Chrome I see the same.
For the first post, there was nothing pre-filled. But I had to manually refresh to see the post after submitting. And now I have the pre-filling again.

Funny enough, when I edit a previous post, this does not occur. The page is reloaded automatically and the edited post is shown right away.
It’s only when I want to create a reply.

I switched my settings now to the ones posted by MichMich. The display of posts was totally confused after switching off the pagination. I had to log out and on again. Now the latest posts are loaded as default and when I scroll up to the top older posts are loaded step by step until the opening post is reached.

And now my reply was shown immediately after I submitted it.
