I ran into a minor bug - I had the browser sitting open on PT for a few hours while I was out, and when I came back to it, one of my posts had changed to [deleted] as author. Refreshing the page fixed it, but it was odd! @navindra in case

    Gombessa it's happened to me sometimes too! The user shows up as deleted and the likes are gone. Unfortunately it seems kinda random and I can't replicate it, so it seems like it would be a tricky bug to file if it can't be consistently reproduced.

      Sometimes when I refresh a page it goes back instead. Could that have something to do with it?

        Josephine It goes back to the previous page you were on when you refresh the page? How are you refreshing the page?

        I think Flarum tries to refresh content dynamically and there are ways of making that work better that are more expensive in terms of server resources. I suspect FreeFlarum has made some optimizations to lessen the load that may be causing some of these bugs.

        It's just speculation on my part though. There are some other avenues to investigate.

        When I go to the home page (on my phone) there is often an arrow in the left top corner, and when I want to log out I first have to refresh the page to make those 3 lines appear. So I refresh the page by clicking the icon for refreshing a page in my browser (Firefox). And often it works, but sometimes I go back to the previous page instead.

          Maybe it's Firefox, and not this forum? I also have some problems with other websites when I use Firefox.

          twocats Also apparently the Globe key on Mac will bring up emojis!

          My Mac keyboard does not have a Globe key. If I click on FN, nothing happens. If I click on emojis, I get this:

          Any tips on how to get emojis?

            You can try typing ":" and then a word after it to find emojis. The search doesn't work like you would think all the time. Typing ":happy" returns nothing.

            Thank you @bSharp!

              from my laptop, I have had some luck with searching for emoji by keywords. Other times I go over to FB, find the one I want and copy it. πŸ˜…

              ETA from my phone or iPad, I just use the emoji keyboard.

              How to make text smaller (by raising/lowering)

              Found out by accident, but it works only for single words. A blank ends the effect:
              ^Upper ^word -> Upper word (like E=mc^2 -> E=mc2) πŸ‘ˆthe great formula of Edvard Grieg
              ~Lower ~word -> Lower word (like B~b -> Bb)

              Hey Flarum experts, how does this feature work?

              When I go to my profile, I can see "Discussions." Ones I've marked to follow show up, which is great. But I also have one PM thread. It doesn't seem to be reflected in the "count" at the left of the screen, and no other PM discussions show up. .

              How's the count determined, or which PMs show up?

                Gombessa When I visit your profile, and click Discussions, this is what I see:

                So really, what it's showing me is all the Discussions you started. Of course, I don't see your PM discussions, but for you, additionally, it shows PM discussions that you started.

                I guess the bug is that it doesn't include PM discussions in the count for you.
