Weird posting issues with firefox

[Hayato Ken]

Whatever happened to this post?

Running latest firefox on Windows 10.
Page is generaly loading really slow, especially in PbP forum and posting takes a long time as well.
Some posts randomly don't come through.

Very weird, after following my own link it looks good.
Before right after posting there was only this:

Redacted

[Lissa Guillet]

We're rolling software and it should be an intermediate error. It should be fixed now. I'm going to edit that out. Let me know if you see it again.

To add to this some, I'm noticing the Preview function on posts is not working. One can still submit posts ... but you can't preview them first.

This was working properly earlier today, but not at present.

It appears to be functioning for me correctly, but that hardly means it doesn't exist. I'll keep an eye out for ways to replicate it as well.

Just to verify can you try pressing the preview button twice in a row, giving it about 10 seconds between each click and let me know if it still doesn't work?

[Redelia]

I just tried preview twice in a row, pausing, and it moves me to the top of the page, with the text I tried to post still in the box, but no preview.

Even in this very thread.

Thanks Redelia!

Will do. Thanks for letting us know.

Redelia's description is accurate for what I'm experiencing.

An additional piece of info... if I edit a previously submitted post, I can preview that before submitting my edits.

Its just a brand new post that does as Redelia mentioned when attempting to Preview it.

[Erik Keith]

Robert was just able to trigger it and we've tracked it to its source, we're working on a fix right now.

[Monkeygod]

I made a separate thread about the preview issues, since it was occurring last week as well.

[Erik Keith]

I appreciate it Monkeygod, I apologize that I didn't see it earlier.

We won't be able to get the fix out tonight, but the goal for tomorrow will be to get the boards back to their previous behavior.

[Erik Keith]

Alright, that *should* do it.

[Redelia]

testing the preview

Yes, this post previewed successfully, and I was one of those who was having issues. Thanks for the quick work fixing this!
