Wait, do you mean the Mac OS window buttons?
It would have never in 200 years occured to me that anyone would use these buttons to discard a post.
But what do you mean by "nothing happens"? The window doesn't close or what? Or do you merely mean that the window to post shows up again when you load the forum page again? In the latter case, I believe this is intended to be a feature and not a bug.

iOS devices. My default use of the forum.

Whether I’m doing a new post or new reply I get that same X and - in the header.
It used to be X gave you a close confirmation dialog box after which it would close the reply or new thread. The minus would minimize it for later retrieval.
The minus by itself still works. But the X just grays out after you use it and does nothing. However
because of my fat fingersI serendipitously discovered that the minus after the X brings up the close confirmation dialog box -

@larry said in Forum Issues:
I use a tablet to get here. For the last several days I can open the forum like always, but if I try to post something it says "error" and won't post. I have to reboot the tablet first. Then when I come back and go to the thread I was trying to post in, click "reply", it pulls up what I wrote and I just simply hit the send icon and it records my post.
Why?
That certainly sounds wrong, but your description is not accurate enough for me to reproduce the problem. Does anyone else have this problem, too?
What exactly is the error message? Just "Error"?

I've gotten the naked 'error' message too since the upgrade.
I don't remember what sequence led to it. In each case (maybe there were two) I refreshed the page and tried again and it worked.

@klaus said in Forum Issues:
I've filed a bug report about this behavior. I'll let you know what the devs say. In the meantime, Jon's workaround seems to work well enough.
Sweet! The devs have already added my bug report as a milestone for their next NodeBB release. It turns out to be a "Z coordinate" issue, which means that the confirmation dialog is hidden behind the editor (which explains why Jon's workaround with the "-" button works).

Cool.

@george-k said in Forum Issues:
@klaus I just got it on my desktop.
Nothing but "error".
I tried to post in the "I love my daughter" thread and that's what I got.
I noticed a few unusual things in the server log that look like they may be related to the issue.

Dec 23 15:42:44 invalid csrf tokenCSRF tokens are a mechanism to prevent certain types of "cross-site request forgery" attacks, but my preliminary search for a fix did not yield anything useful. I'll investigate this more. Maybe @mark or @Axtremus have any experience with this kind of web tec?

Cool.
...and a few minutes ago they've fixed the bug. It's nice to use software with such an active community. We'll still have to wait for the next release, though.

@Larry for the time being - until the bug is fixed - refreshing the page (via the browser's "reload" button) might be a quicker way to work around the issue than rebooting your tablet.

I've deactivated the extended markdown plugin. The reason I installed it originally was to enable spoilers; the rest of the features was, as far as I can see, never used by anyone. We now have a better spoiler plugin and the editor for posts now looks less cluttered. Let me know if you miss that plugin.
