A number of users of the forum have reported the same issue.
I don’t know if this applies on the mobile app, but it definitely does on desktop browsers. (I’ve been able to replicate the issue on Chromium, Firefox, and Brave.)
Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue? Thanks!
No, the posts (being replied to) have not been deleted or flagged. It seems to literally be every post with an “in reply to” where this happens. It’s not limited to just one or two cases.
But the behavior I’m seeing does seem to be the same as what is seen with the “New sidebar design” post @Moin referenced above.
Thanks. That’s not what I’m referring to, though. The “share post” feature works fine. It’s the “in reply to” link (to the left of “share post”) that doesn’t work.
I think it is more likely an issue with the specific forum.
But since we know nothing about the version, configuration of related settings, installed plugins, … it is very difficult to find out what caused this.
I have the feeling that there is a misunderstanding.
No one expects it to open a composer for replying. But when an avatar and username are shown, it indicates that this post is a reply to another post. And usually, when you click that, like here at Meta, you see the post to which the post replies. The problem is that this doesn’t work on another private forum, and @gurtz tries to find out why.
