Something wrong on Announcements?

Post #1

Post by ThatGirlAgain »

A post by arian on Announcements at 3:57 PM EDT today cannot be accessed. It appears in the Last Post column on the Index. But clicking on it gets "No posts exist for this topic. Likewise going into the Announcement list and clicking on that entry. Going through arian's 'all posts' list shows the preview of it but the post itself still cannot be reached.

:confused2:

I've seen this phenomenon happen whenever a post in the Member Praise Gift Program creates a new page. Just pick on the previous page number (114) and go to the last comment, it should be there.

Does it help?

I added one more post and the missing one is now reachable.

On a Ubuntu / Linux system with Firefox, I can confirm the issue occurs.

Maybe if the others'll let us know what they have, otseng'll be in a better spot to sort it out.

Happens on IE7 and IE8. Only ever saw it happen with Announcements.
Dogmatism and skepticism are both, in a sense, absolute philosophies; one is certain of knowing, the other of not knowing. What philosophy should dissipate is certainty, whether of knowledge or ignorance.

The apps I use at work require programmatic use of advanced browser functions. They are tied into IE.

Problem is strictly somewhere embedded in the bowels of the PHP code. I'll see if I can fix it.
