Loosing posts?

Post by Ian F »

Paul,

another problem from me, sorry!

I have logged in and replied in 3 threads, but when I hit "submit" I am asked to log in and of course my post has disappeared.
It is not saved in drafts so I just give up!

What are you using

Browser?

I will see if I can replicate the issue

Which posts are you trying to post too?

Many thanks Paul.

I generally use my Android phone on the forum, which I guess uses Chrome?

I log in with saved passwords etc. and this allows me access to write (like this of course).

I have attempted replies recently to the posts on overheating and paint on sills.

I will take a copy of this before attempting to post in case I lose it!

It seems to be replies which are affected, new threads started by me are OK (I think)

Hi Ian,
I use Android most of the time.

I have updated the forum to the latest release this morning.

I don't know if there were any glitches after the last upgrade.

Thanks Paul. I will keep using the forum and see how I get on. If you don't hear from me assume everything is OK!!
I take it no-one else has a similar problem posting?

Nobody has reported any issues.

I take it these replies were without issues?

Yes, these replies all worked with no problems.
It is probably a coincidence, but the occurrence of a failure to post seems to be directly related to the length of the text I have written! Which of course makes it doubly frustrating!!
