Infinity loading issue on Focused Sidebar

AI-generated summary

Users Don and Mr.X_Mr.X reported an infinity loading issue on the Focused Sidebar theme, where the loading spinner continuously loops at the bottom of pages (e.g., topic and activity pages) on desktop, preventing normal pagination. Don referenced a prior similar bug on Android. sam acknowledged the issue but noted sidebar fixes are low priority due to ongoing core sidebar development by @tgxworld, with plans to resolve such bugs later in the year. Don later confirmed the issue appears resolved. sam clarified the problem involved endless loading without scrolling progress until reaching the page end, and expressed willingness to fix it when higher priority work allows.

Hello,

I don’t know if this is the good place for this and I know the theme is in active development. I just noticed this :slightly_smiling_face:

Before, I reported a bug from this kind of issue but that is only affect on Android mobile device. Now I noticed I think the same infinity loading issue on Focused Sidebar theme every page where the loading spinner appears.

Here is the previous report: Infinity loading in topic

On topic page:

On activity page:

I think the same happening on all page where loading is appear. Only on desktop.

Thanks :slightly_smiling_face:

Experiencing the same.

Note, sidebar issues are heavily de-prioritized cause @tgxworld is busy building a first-class sidebar.

Not exactly following what is wrong here? Can you explain a bit more? Content is rendered as a duplicate?

Hello Sam, The issue I reported here is when the loading spinner appear on the bottom and not just the next 20 posts load. It keeps always on the bottom and loop the loading without scrolling. This repeats until jumps to the end of the topic or page. :slightly_smiling_face:

I see, I would love to fix but sadly a fix here is very low priority. Some time this year we will have sidebar integrated into core and we can address this fix then.
