In this topic , when looking at the edit history by clicking on the pencil, I get the error: ‘The requested URL resource could not be found.’. [The image shows a discussion forum page on a mobile device, with a message indicating that the requested URL or resource could not be found. (Captioned by …

That was a nice one https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/36870 The issue was that we were automatically increasing the public_version of a post, even we were going to hide the revision later in the process because a staff member added a hidden tag. What made it somewhat harder to “track” w…

Is this consistent on desktop as well, I can see the history here but I am an admin so it does not count.

If the post had already been edited a few days before the hidden tag was added, you didn’t see the error but the edit history with only the older edit. That was also a little confusing because orange indicates that the edit happened recently. Does the fix prevent that change of the color too, or doe…

The fix only addresses the case where there are no visible edits - it prevents the pencil from appearing at all in that scenario. Your scenario (post already edited → staff adds hidden tag → color turns orange) is a separate edge case. The updated_at timestamp still gets touched, so yes, the color …
