Peter Miller Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Twice now I have tried to answer peoples posts and inserted a picture. My post just vanishes. The last one suddenly appeared some time later.My latest on the Harmony thread just doesn't come up when I post it is only short but does have a picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyB Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) Have you tried rebooting or using a different browser? In all probability this is more likely to be a local issue (unless the forum backend has been updated in the background without users being aware).

MattyB Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) Test post with pic (from iOS Safari)… yep, works fine. Edited January 17, 2022 by MattyB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_K Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Peter, If you experience the problem again please observe what happens when you click on 'Submit Reply'? Does the button colour fade (greyed out) and stay that way for a few minutes, after which it changes to 'Saving'. While 'Saving' does your browser display it's 'wait for it' signal? I see this behaviour regularly. At first I thought posts were not going to be saved, however if I wait long enough they are. (Problem seen over long period with different browsers).

Peter Miller Posted January 17, 2022 Author Share Posted January 17, 2022 I went back to it and did it again and it worked this time. Next time I have the problem I will try again on my other computer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EarlyBird Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) I had this problem quite a few times. Eventually I worked out that when the problem arose I had not pressed the Submit Reply button ? Now I am more careful so that I don't press Latest Posts before Submit Reply. ? Just did it again and it worked when I pressed Submit Reply on the second attempt. Edited January 17, 2022 by EarlyBird 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Miller Posted January 17, 2022 Author Share Posted January 17, 2022 I was pressing the "Submit Reply" button. Then when I went back to it after leaving the forum it said my reply had been reinstated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EarlyBird Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 3 minutes ago, Peter Miller said: I went back to it after leaving the forum it said my reply had been reinstated. Yes that's what happened to me and I assumed I had not pressed submit reply. I was going to say 'in my case it's an age thing' ? Now you have got me thinking that maybe I did press Submit Reply. Time for some more testing I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EarlyBird Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 With great care I definitely pressed Submit Reply and it worked. ? planking is more interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
