Forum bug when looking at Drafts

SilverBride · June 6

I am getting this strange screen when I try to look at my drafts.

Is anyone else seeing this?

cyclonus11 · June 6

Yes - I just cleared my drafts and it looked just like that.

Yup.

(my browser is in Dark Mode, hence the difference in color.)

I'm getting it too.

How odd! This is what I see when I look at my drafts:

Is this a bug or is it supposed to look this way now?

My guess is that vanilla pushed something that wasn't "finished". They're very well known for that sort of thing.

This is definitely a bug, and I suspect there's an extra, or missing `<` in the page source somewhere. If you look at your image, the grey vertical text is actually style markup to tell the browser how some part of this page should look. You should never actually see this stuff unless (on a desktop) you right click and "View Source" or similar.

So, someone messed up the background markup.

Usually this is a 10 second fix, yet here we are

Is this going to be fixed any time soon?

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin

Is this a bug or is it a new feature? If it's a bug will it be fixed soon?

Thank you.

This is a bug. We will escalate to Vanilla now.

SilverBride · June 19

Thank you!

Vanilla is G L A C I A L S L O W on their fastest day. I wish game studios would stop using them.

Discourse is worse and super laggy filled with bugs beyond measure, I wish video game companies would stop using that software. I'm glad vanilla is a on the top 3 best forum softwares to use. It has very quick loading times, no lag, and hardly any bugs. It's also easier to use and better set up. These bugs that come across are temporary and may take some time to fix. The most common bugs I see here are the once in a while formatting glitches which can easily be patched. No forum software is perfect.

I'd think a month would be long enough to fix it, but I guess not.

Not for Vanilla.

Greetings,

This thread has been moved to the Bug Reports section, as it is better suited there.

@ZOS_Kevin

This bug has been present since June 6. Is there any ETA on when it may be fixed?

Thank you.

Tandor · July 20

I'm still experiencing this bug.

SilverBride · July 25

This bug had been present for almost 2 months now. Is there any update on when this will be fixed?

@ZOS_Kevin

ZOS_Kevin · July 25

We are not sure yet. We have reported this to Vanilla and they have confirmed this issue is happening. They have notified us that they are working on a solution, but we do not have control of that. We have to wait on them. We will escalate again, but fixing it is out of our hands at the moment.

SilverBride · July 25

Thanks for the update! It's good to know they are actively working on it. I'll just patiently wait for it to be resolved.

SilverBride · September 1

It's been almost 3 months since this bug appeared. I am not sure why Vanilla hasn't come up with a fix yet. I guess it is just going to stay like this and I will try to stop caring.
