Hi @ljpp - thanks for reporting this. There have been some recent upgrades in the code which handles our ‘back’ navigation, so it’s certainly possible there’s been a regression, or an incompatibility with a theme/plugin on your site.
Do you have a specific sequence of page visits which will trigger the issue?
No repro-pattern yet, but it happens frequently. Also some other odd ball behavior has been seen during the last couple of days, which could be related.
Browser refresh took me to a different page than were I was when executing the refresh.
I have seen Topics not opening when when tapped on index page.
This is happening for me at the moment. I noticed that when I use the back button the topic jumps to a different post in that topic and afterwards latest appear again. Then I cannot open the topic again. After refreshing the topic is there.
Note the back button also does not take me back to latest at the end. I visited that topic more than once before, because it is somehow triggering the issue (Maybe the link to a different post of the topic or even the “show full post” button of the first post, I still don’t have clear steps)
I tried to reproduce some more. I definitly happens when the back button does not directly take you back to lastest and there is this jump to another post before you are taken back to the topic list
This happends on iPad/DiscourseHub too when swiping from left. Started actually yesterday and here. Quite annoying
And it doesn’t do it constantly. Sometimes it shows a second earlier topic, reload forum and goes nicely back to home. Or it starts go through history of red topics.
Sure — this can be different issue, but because it sounds same I didn’t start a new topic.
Thanks all - we’ll keep digging into possible causes. If anyone is able to check their browser console for errors when this happens, that would be very helpful (I realise that’s easier said than done on mobile!)
I opened a topic from latest, used the back button to get back to latest and clicked the topic again. It does not open. This is the error I get
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'refresh')

The problem was somewhat dependent on network/cpu performance, so that might explain why it was noticed more frequently on tablets. But the problem was also reproducible for me on macOS chrome after slowing down network/cpu in the dev tools.
It looks like there is an outstanding issue when the ‘loading indicator’ site setting is configured to the (non-default) ‘spinner’ setting. We’ll get that fixed up ASAP.
