Site really wonky!!

I know @CCadmin_Sorin posted that there were some “maintenance things” going on…but whew!

Here are some of the issues I’ve had:

  1. Hit a thread but got taken to a completely different thread!
  2. In financial aid, there is a place att he top for outside scholarships. Things like Questbridge were listed under that. Now it says 0 posts and 0 replies...and none of those outside scholarships are listed.
  3. When I open a thread, I used to be taken to then newest post I hadn't read. Now I'm taken just about any place in the thread...often way back where I've already read tons of posts.
  4. Screen hops around. I go to hit something...but on my iPad, the screen moves up or down, and I don't end up touching the correct thread or forum.

I’m guessing this is another Vanilla Forums downgrade.

@thumper1, thanks for reporting! I could reproduce #2, but all else works fine in my case. Anyone else experiencing these issues?

I guess I’m lucky you could replicate one of my issues.

This is a bad time for that outside scholarship section to be incorrect…as many students are seeking information about the specific ones.

I take it that another “upgrade” was done to the site.

Is anybody else having trouble finding the Parent Cafe? It’s no longer listed as a subset of the Parents Forum unless I go to the main forum page and then I can see it.

Yes to #4 on thumper’s list.

Sometimes in the past day or so I’ve seen “This is a test message” in a yellow box at the top of my iPhone screen. Can’t remember what screen, though. Will post again if I see it again.

@intparent I’ve seen the same thing on my phone!

Today I am showing I am the OP of a thread, when in fact I have never started one.

Saw the “test message” right at the top when I signed in. Yellow box at the top of the community home page, had a number at the end of the message (123654). On an iPhone 6. @CCadmin_Sorin

@CottonTales, although you never actually started a thread, you were the first one to report one, which made you the OP. This would explain the issue you reported. Thanks!

Thanks for the clarification, @CCadmin_sorin. I didn’t realize that tattling earned me a thread point!

@Wellspring, I can see Parents Cafe display correctly everyone under Parents Forums. However, if you are referring to the sub-categories under Parents Cafe, it’s the same issue as with the Financial Aid & Scholarship. That’s currently work in progress. Thanks!

@thumper1, @LuckyCharms913, can you please detail a bit on issue #4? Also, please let me know the device, browser, and operating system. Thanks!

under the sub forum Alphabetic List of Colleges there is only one letter per line now so you have to scroll way down I can understand doing this on the mobile version but I don’t see why you would change it for the desktop users. Waste of screen space on my PC.

^I agree.

When I go to the Parents Forum main page I see the Parent Cafe listed under it as usual but not long enough to click on it before it disappears. I just checked and apparently this only happens on my new Android tablet and not on my laptop.

@3scoutsmom, it’s the same issue that the tech team is working on. I’ll let you know once it’s fixed. Thanks!

I’m using an IPad Air, with Safari to,access CC.

When I read a post, if I use the back arrow, I get to the subjects…but while I’m reaching to tap one…the screen moves…and I get another thread…not the one I was aiming for. This has been going on for more than a couple,of days…and it’s annoying.

Guys, the issue with the subforums has now been fixed. All should be displaying fine now. Please let me know if otherwise. Thanks!
