Title: Quoting posts
Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Sunday, August 21, 2022, 18:39:27
Why the f... can I not quote any posts any more? Is it just me? Only noticed this today.
I can reply but it's often useful to be able to quote posts...

Well there you go...but I can't do that on my phone or lap top (as of today). Pure randomness...

I had the same a while ago but it suddenly come back. Have you tried logging off since it happened

I logged off and logged back in  then it let me quote one post before going back to how it was before.

I expect it will rectify itself as it did with you Jimmy...it's the randomness of it that gets me!

Then just now, to post this reply it said I had to log in when I already was.... total bollocks...

Still having this problem and I notice a couple of other people are having the same issue, adje being the latest.

Anyone got any ideas on how this can be resolved?


Title: Re: Quoting posts

Me neither. Bit annoying


Title: Re: Quoting posts

No idea but I will make Barry Scott aware of the issue. I can quote fine.

There have been a few oddities I've noticed.
  - Can't tapatalk reply to threads  (been like that forever)
  - Can't edit thread titles (hence the new "managers" thread this year)
  - Quotes did disappear but have been fine for ages for me.
 
Its an old forum, bound to have a few aches and pains like most of us.

I can quote when using the site on the laptop but not when using it on my phone FYI.

I'd tell you about my toaster but I wouldn't want anyone to think I am bragging!


Title: Re: Quoting posts

is it a new £20 toaster you bought to save £10 a year, or is this only kettles?

yeah, times are tight and the toaster doesn't work properly so I save a bit of bread.

Thank you. Dare I ask if there will be a ceremony where I can raise a toast? (That's the last one, I promise!)

Crumbs. Make him stop. 

It's not like he's earning a crust from it.

(OK truce)

I too have a problem with not being able to quote, and I'm trying to use my loaf to solve it.

must be.

We want no muffins, no toast, no teacakes, no buns, baps, baguettes or bagels, no croissants, no crumpets, no pancakes, no potato cakes and no  hot-cross buns and DEFINITELY no smegging flapjacks!

I've not actually done anything, I was trying to recreate the issue locally, but wasn't getting anywhere.

I'm guessing the issue will return. What template are you using and does changing template have any effect? Are you accessig the site through a secure connection https, do you know? I'm going to dump the full cache on cloudflare as well, and see if that helps.

Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Saturday, September 3, 2022, 16:17:05
It's actually not gone away Barry, it's "as you were"... I can quote on a tablet but not on my phone or laptop.

First World problems of course...

Title: Re: Quoting posts
Post by: Barry Scott on Saturday, September 3, 2022, 22:25:14
I think I might’ve found the cause. I imagine that some of your devices are accessing the forum using https://thetownend.com as opposed to “insecurely” through http://thetownend.com

If that’s the reason (I also can’t quote when I access it securely) it’ll be a simple fix and I’ll sort it in the morning.

In the mean time try using it without ssl and see if that solves the problem, please.

Happily quoting your quote quoting other quotes.
