That’s what happens for me when I try and click “Reply on original topic”. It doesn’t, and the modal just pops back up again.

Did you try on safe mode ?
I tried to reproduce your issue on try.discourse.org but didn’t succeed.
Hello,
I can repro it if I install Topic Ratings plugin on my test site. As I see on the plugin topic you use this plugin too. No error in console.. there is only the pluginID warning.
Discourse version: 0760b249ff
Discourse Ratings is also on the latest.
I suggest to disable the plugin (its enough in admin) and make a report on the plugin topic. 
I made another reply on that topic (it’s the second issue with that plugin this week, and it’s out of it’s “support period” so I have to wait a few weeks).
I have no problem disabling it for now, thanks 
I’m actually working on a PR in my spare time to solve several issues and deprecations. So on this occasion the resolution might be sooner ;).
If someone wants to test that branch and confirm the issue is not there, I’d be grateful. (I just tested it in dev and could not repro it)
Sure, I am here for testing. Could you point me how can I target that branch in app.yml? Thank you!
Thanks @Don, very much appreciated!
Something like: git clone https://github.com/paviliondev/discourse-ratings -b compatibility_fixes
There is always a slight risk prod behaves differently to dev of course …
Thanks Robert! I run the rebuild now. I will notify you in few minutes.
Ok I rebuild and tested. It was strange, when I first time I tried it worked but then the same issue happened every time i try. If that helps I can send you the test site with admin access in pm.
No issues. I’ll try it out on one of my prod instances. Thanks for confirming.
OK repro’d in dev. The video was very helpful, thanks @darkpixlz
OK this should be fixed on the test branch, compatibility_fixes. If anyone has chance to test and confirm that would be great!
Yes, It seems to works perfect now for me.
Great we’ll look to push this early next week, if not Monday.
Thanks, sorry for all of the issues I have been having this week lol
Not a problem. This was a funny edge case, well caught!
