Random posts bug
Hi @NikNik (tagging you too @suzanne, as I'm not sure who is handling this while Nik is away). Over the past few days I've noticed an odd bug on the forum.
I go to member's profile pages sometimes to keep up with their news. In the 'Latest Posts' section of these, I sometimes click on the member's most recent posts to do this.
When doing this over the past few days, I have been taken to posts that are not the member's most recent posts in that thread. In fact I am being taken to posts that are sometimes written by other members altogether. The weirdest thing is that the post I am taken to changes if I try again with the link. In other words, I am being taken to random different messages on the same thread each time I click the same link!
I hope this is sufficiently clear. I wonder too if anyone else has encountered this bug. I am on a PC using fully updated Chrome.

Re: Random posts bug
Hi @Mazarita,
I have been having the same issue. I use a pc and use both IE and Chrome at different times.
@CheerBear I haven't experienced what you are describing. I am most intrigued though that you use your phone so much in Forum Land. How the heck do you post such long posts on your phone?

Re: Random posts bug
I have noticed under notifications (on PC) that some notifications have shown the correct name of the member who has posted but the avatar alongside it is of a completely different member.

Re: Forum changes
Hello @Former-Member 🙂
I've noticed a different issue. I don't know what the FB one is about, and to be honest I'm glad - it's sound a bit like it was a mistake . . . mistakes happen. Mine problem is I've noticed when I click on a post I've been tagged in, on the list of my tagged posts - it takes me to a completely different post, sometimes a completely different person? {Normally in the tread of that post though}. I use that list to 'navagate' in the Forum, and I can usually find the post by going to the last page and working back. But it's a bit of a worry. Just thought maybe you'd want to know.
Niqua

Re: Forum changes
Hi @Former-Member ..... I have had that happen a number of times in the last few days as well.
Looks like a tech glitch.

Re: Forum changes
I often have error in content of body or whatever the phrase is when trying to post a response.
I keep on trying as the error message indicates....cancel in exasperation
only to later find that it has posted....
just to add to your pile of technology hiccups which I am sure you do not really need...
thanks in advance
