I am using 2.8.0.beta7 on krita-artists.org and for some time this month the link for the notification about updated topic count is not clickable. When user clicks on the link nothing happens.
I searched the forum here to see if anybody else had similar problem and I found this topic - See # new or updated topics which seems to be closed and fixed. But I am still experiencing this. Is there any way to get more information and report this?
We believe this may be related to topic list previews, can you try disabling this plugin and see if the issue persists? We already let @merefield know.
I have now switched to the theme component and also the sidecar plugin. I am testing it , I will report in few hours.
Update: I enabled the theme component and the problem persists with it. the feature works when TC and the plugin is not enabled. I will test more and see if it works if I disable the sidecar plugin etc.
Console shows error - Uncaught TypeError: this.model.loadBefore is not a function
I’m the person looking into the issue you reported. Initially, I thought this was related to your report, but I see it’s different.
This banner only updates the latest topics, not categories, but it is positioned in a confusing spot where you might think it would update categories as well.
When I click the banner on your site, it reloads the latest topics, but not categories, which is expected. This behavior wasn’t the case for the OP, as the topic list wasn’t refreshing on that site.
However, I’m working on a fix to move the banner above the latest topics columns instead.
This fix might take some effort to get into production as I have to be sure this doesn’t break existing functionality on some customers’ customizations, but I’ll keep you informed when it goes live.
