Quick question about the "Powered by Discourse" badge

Support

Hi,

When I got the instance, the Powered by Discourse badge on the bottom didn’t mind me.

Altough, the animation (the little rainbow one) did look really cool!

One day though, it dissapeared. (by that the animation)

Is there potentially a reason for it, has it been removed or is it something else?

Thanks

Hi there, are you referring to the loading animation? That was changed in:

No, the animation for this:

I think this one

works on my self hosted instance

Does it have a rainbow styled anim when hovered on?

Huh, interesting. Never noticed it before, but on a free plan forum hosted by Discourse, I see it now:

Does this happen on your community only?

I’ll have to check, altough many sites don’t have the badge visible.

8

yes it does have the animation

9

there is an option in settings to turn it off, maybe that is why you don’t see it on all sites

10

So it seems its an issue on my instance?

Not sure why though

11

Yeah I know

Disabling and Reenabling the badge also didn’t work

Does it occur in safe mode? Also, what is the version of your instance?

EDIT: I don’t see any recent changes to the codebase that would affect this area, so it would be best to check safe mode first.

Always occurs.
