Having difficulty on the forum?

As per @Hellraiser…same problems…had to restart my tablet, after trying to post a pic here, funny thing is I was able to upload a new avatar without any problems…

Thanks @Missiles Most of mine are covered above. Ones I didn’t see are

After a few post, when I click on my icon to go to the next post. I get taken to the main page and am stuck there till I shut this down and return.

After a few replies. I have to hit the refresh button if I want to continue doing any thing. This is the same in PMs.

No emojis and can’t post pictures

Also no button to follow post now and then.
This is on a windows 7 machine. Doesn’t matter what browser I use.

Issues I have:

Haven’t been able to upload pictures for a month. Little wheel just spins at 0%.

I click on a notification and it takes me to a blank header. I have to close the browser and reload. Works for a few minutes then have to close and reopen again.

If I want to ‘quote’ about 50% of the time it won’t populated that option when I highlight but if I then click ‘reply’ it populates the reply with quote.

Oh yeah, when I highlight something to quote, the grey box to click on is in a random corner, not next to the highlighted section.

I don’t even get the “quote” box. But the text appears in my reply when I hit the reply button.
And I need to refresh the page to be able to see if anything I posted gets posted!

I have been unable to post pictures, use emojies (unless typed in), reading and answering posts requires logging out and back in, sometimes several times. Nothing shows up in preview box. I click on a notification and it takes me to a blank header. I have never been able to post a picture with my phone

Also, usually in replies, you have the avatar at the top right corner of the person’s being replied to. And when you click that avatar, you have an up arrow to take you to the relevant post… well those don’t work for me anymore…

I scanned the replies and I have all of the issues. Ones I didn’t see are:
While typing the cursor will jump up rows or lose it entirely. It did it 3 times while typing this line.
Frequently I will get logged out while uploading pictures. I try to limit the number of pictures upload (it just jumped again) to 3 but sometimes that doesn’t work either. Sometimes reload brings back the draft other times I have to go find it in my account activity. In either case the file upload info is converted to text.
I have set the thread to watch. Curious as to the # of replies.

They got me back on lab with apps for it and free side as always before I had to go thru Google search or whatever it is this is so much better. Your problem is on free side isn’t it. :thinking::blush::blush:

I have been unable twice in the last week to upload an image in a particular thread. I also was getting the “0% loaded” message. I was however able to post it in a different thread and create a link to it in the original thread. I put it in the “can’t upload pics” thread, like this:

Here is one such thread where it failed.

You should actually be able to do a PostgreSQL query for inserts into the “47853” table and see what the error was. Without directly looking, my first thought would be the database is timing out because of iowait. That, or the database needs vacuuming pretty bad. The latter can cause the former.

Other minor notables:
The quote button popup no longer appears when I highlight text. However, if I scroll to the bottom and hit reply, the quote will still be inserted.
Often I am seeing a long delay (as much as 30 seconds) between posting a reply and seeing it appear.

Discourse support team may have found potential issue. They are working on a fix, I will post here looking for feedback once implemented.
