Hi, I’d like to report some issues that we’re currently having in long threads. Our site is hosted at talk.collegeconfidential.com . 1. Scrollbar doesn’t work well in long posts Steps to Reproduce Go to talk.collegeconfidential.com Go to a long thread like this Observed Result/s Clicking on t…

Safe mode is a good start. What third party plugins, if any, are you using?

Hi @codinghorror ! Yeah, we figured that since we were also getting the issue in Safe mode then it’s probably not an issue with our template. Here are the plugins that we are currently using in production: [image] We also have Linkify added as a theme component. Are any of these possibly causing…

Try disabling the ads, I have seen a similar issue with ad-heavy sites.

Thanks for your input @Falco ! Does this mean that we should limit our threads to less than 10,000 for these issues to stop occurring?

You shouldn’t need to do this, as Discourse will do that automatically for you out of the box: [image] The only way you will get 10k+ posts in a topic is if an admin intentionally re-open the topic, change the default setting, or in a badly made migration that didn’t broke the mega-topics into sma…

I see, we’re already limiting our posts to 10,000. I’ll check with our team about why we currently have some threads that exceed this limit. [image] Thanks for your help!
