Forwarding of Messages Capability

I don't think anything has changed in the forum software. When I look at your post, which I did not originate, I see the icons.

This is what your post looks like on my screen...

John,

Those icons were there before Rich replied, but now they are gone. Other posts with replies do not show them, either.

Rich, The attachment you shared is what I saw on 'my' messages.  The seven colored rectangles do not show on messages originated by other Forum members.  They stopped appearing within the past couple of days and at this time are not on the original message.  Respectfully, John Mateyko in Lansing, ILL

Rich, you being an admin on the board doubtless allows you extra links that the unwashed masses don't see.

This is all I see.

FWIW, I don't see them on my messages either.

I don't see them now, either.

Time for Crowdstack Tech Support...

Thanks Rich.  Also as an FYI it's not related to any ad blocker either.  As a test,  I toggled mine to on, then back off, and the icons gone in either state.

From Crowdstack Tech Support:

"...There is a bug here; this issue only occurs when you load a reply link URL, e.g.: https://ogrforum.ogaugerr.com/...0#141497117500384110

It will not occur if you load the topic page itself (not anchored to a reply): https://ogrforum.ogaugerr.com/...c/141497117499628074"

What he is saying is that if you load THIS PAGE, which is a link to the top of this thread, the links will be there. If you load THIS PAGE, which is a link to a specific reply within this thread, they will not appear. These Crowdstack guys are amazing.

And you guys helped find a bug in the Crowdstack software!

I think I understand.  If a member uses the RECENT POSTS column on the right side of the screen to access a stream/subject, the seven rectangles do not appear.  If a member goes to a forum(for example Want to Buy) and scrolls down until he/she finds that same post, the seven rectangles are on the screen and usable.  I hope Crowdstack can find the bug and eliminate it.  John in Lansing, ILL

John, your analysis of this is correct. Crowdstack is working on a fix.

Incidentally, my “handle” on the Crowdstack tech support system is “Senior Bug Exterminator” a title given to me by the owner of the company many years ago when we first moved to the Hoopla (now Crowdstack) platform. I have a knack for finding and documenting various bugs.

In this case it was you guys who discovered the bug. I just reported it to Crowdstack.

Rick,

Like in the cockpit, it is a team effort.

Respectfully,

John in Lansing, ILL

Precisely, John. CRM. I practiced it all the time when I was flying.

Here's my ID page from Crowdstack...

This bug has been fixed.
