So this is new. Now when I post a comment in a thread, the “Post comment” fades out like it’s posting but then it never shows. I refresh the page and it’s there.
Just started happening this evening and it’s happened multiple times now.
Example as I posted my reply to @intparent 's post in the other thread: (text disappears, post comment button fades, but my post doesn’t appear until I refresh)
Try to edit it once you can see it…, Some of us are seeing strings of gibberish then.
Test
Gibberish confirmed:
^^
great- just great.
great
It’s definitely wonky tonight. I also got gibberish when I tried to edit a post . The post looks ok, but when I look back to look at my past posts, when I get to that one, it’s the long string of gibberish and then the test on the screen gets really small and I can’t click on the arrow to search back any further. Oh and that weird thing with. The posts not showing til you refresh happened to me a few minutes ago too.
Happened with the above post too

Thanks for reporting, guys! I’ve informed Vanilla and asked them to look into this asap. I’ll keep you posted.
FYI - it happens to me, too. I just had to refresh to be able to see my post.
Try editing your post, Sorin, and see if you get the same gobbledygook and the page shrinking down in size.
@jym626, I did. It’s exactly as you guys describe. I’m waiting for the vendor to get back with some details. I’ll keep you posted. Thanks!
I sent a PM to answer a student’s Q and it showed gibberish, so I tried to resend…more gibberish. But then I refreshed and both messages were fine, but now I’ve sent the same message twice. ugh.
I also am not seeing posts immediately when I post them…need to refresh.
Post reports are acting wonky too. I can tell whether they have sent…or not…the little “your report has been sent” isn’t always appearing.
Apologies to the mods if you have received anything more than once!
@CCadmin_Sorin I sent you an email with a screen shot of what I got when I tried to edit! Not gibberish…something totally different. Can’t seem to paste it here.
I have had trouble for about a week with notifications and inbox not clearing, even after click, click, click, getting out and getting back in.
I had the same issue last night. I ended up with a few double posts. I also got the jibberish when I tried to edit.
It happened when I posted the above!
