Gremlins

It's back again...sorry you cannot use search, try later. It's been happening to me all morning.

Same here, been trying to see active topics

I'll let Troy know. I know I've been hitting some real slow spots off and on today!

I have been noticing something that has been different in recent months. For years when I received an e-mail about a new post, the link used to take me to 'that' post. Now, it takes me to posts much earlier in the thread instead of the post that triggered the notification. I thought maybe it was a thing that only affected mobile devices or iOS, but the same thing happens on a PC.

I sure wish the Forum had an app.

Scroll back, you may have more than 1 reply from the same thread.

Nope, actual screen when I clicked this one:

Can you provide me with a copy of a link you're clicking on that isn't taking you to the spot you're expecting? Feel free to forward the message to my email or PM it to me.

Thanks,

I have another gremlin to report. :-( when on a PC, I like to type longer posts in MS Word, and then paste them into the box. Today, however, when I hit 'preview' or 'submit', it tells me there are too few characters and all my pasted text is gone.

I hope this is not permanent, I would really miss being able to use word processing to put my posts together.

We haven't changed anything at all on this end. If this problem just started all of a sudden for you today, then it seems like it could be a bug in your web browser. I would suggest closing it down and running it again to see if that helps.

[kgcayenne]

Nope, no dice. Even using a different browser, tried pasting from notepad and sticky too.

Do you think Win10's latest date messed things up?

[oneh2obabe]

Just tried copy 'n paste and it works fine. Windows 10 with latest update.

Then it's my junky PC.

Then it's my junky PC.

Maybe it got a VIRUS ? It seems to be the thing of the time.

Look into downloading Grammarly, it's what I use. It auto checks everything and the working page is browser based.

I'm getting the oddest error today,

all of normaM's photos are showing up like this, suddenly

Only hers, that I can see . . .

That's weird. I can see it. :/
