Something wrong with forum, always stalling when posting.

PostThu Apr 19, 2018 9:51 am

Hi, there has been an issue with the forum for many months.

Nearly everytime I submit a post or edit, it hangs not loading in the next page. Sometimes the post or edit goes through, sometimes not, sometimes I can go back and recover (if it hangs before submission makes it and you try to reload page to get it going again, it can loose the message, sort of thing). Very frustrating and confusing.

Android chrome browser. Used to work great before. This is the only site I've noticed such an issue.

Yep, all worked fine ... even the re-editing of text.
Maybe something local to you.
See post above :)

But maybe only on the BM forum.

So, did you use android 7 phone and chrome 65.0.3325.109?

Actually, are you on the forum support staff who are supposed to be answering and have privileges to findout?

This is the first and only report of this happening. Can't speak to mobile phone apps/browsers but if there are others that are also having this issue, they'll have this thread to mention something and if we see this being a mass issue, we can look into what the cause could be.

Thanks Tony. You know what it is like? Even took me months and months of annoyance before I gave in and reported it. Most people may just ignore it and maybe gravitate to desktop browsers.

Tried a few different devices over the past couple days and all work, with no issues...
These include laptops, desktop pc windows and Linux, android tablet, android phone, &
iPhone and all run with no issues.
