Forum posts going missing - grrrr
Does anyone else get this issue using these forums? I imagine you do. It normally happens when you edit a reply, save changes and BAM - reply has disappeared. It gets very frustrating. I do tend to copy my posts to the clipboard before submitting just in case.
I just submitted a lengthy reply to a thread, edited, saved, edited again, saved - gone. Pasted, saved - appears. Then go to the forum index and the thread isn't highlighted at the top. Scroll down, find thread, my reply is not there! Repeat process. No reply. What the hell!
Sorry, I just had to have that rant to vent my frustration!
Splat, Win 10 64bit and all sorts of musical odds and sods collected over the years, but still missing a lot of my old analogue stuff I sold off years ago.

It happens if I try to refresh when a post edit seems to have stuck in loading. I need to wait 5 minutes for it to finish loading instead.

yes . . . beware of the edit, if it's extra stuff, safer to put it in a new post, saves risking what you already wrote. copy everything before hitting the button. the cynical and those with a good sense of irony may say it's a sonar forum, . . . so we all should be use to bugs and quirks and things not working as expected and the need for numerous workarounds  alanis would say " isn't ironic, don't ya think"

Also if an edit gets stuck in loading, press submit again, never reload.

in firefox (perhaps others, perhaps all) pressing the back button usually takes you back to your post/reply box, allowing you to get everything you typed, just resubmitting doesn't usually work, but you can copy everything and then try again latter

This dark trickenology is also true of their flagship program. I never got the same thing twice whenever I used it.

Wow I thought I personally was being heavily moderated.
Yeah, it's after an edit.
Y'all have missed some of my best stuff.

You mean the most significant bit is missing?

My previous advice recently failed. I had to click back to copy paste, change the post a little and repost it.

It seems to be getting worse. Happened to me several times lately.

You need to edit the post. Reposting the same thing makes the forum think you are double posting.

Editing it made it disappear. At which point re-posting was the only option.
FWIW, I did receive notification earlier today that a previous post of mine had been retrieved so I'm guessing the hosts are doing their best to help out with this.

Try posting something without any worthwhile content. Works for me every time!

Sorry, what you need to do if a post doesnt post: 1) Press back button on browser until you are back to your post 2) Select all and copy 3) Make a new post and paste it in 4) Change something (I.E. edit) so it doesnt get detected as a double post (the original failed post is still there but hidden).

Editing - adding the word "test" did work. Thanks.

Can't even make a post in one of my own threads today, which ironically is about stupid software!
