Indeed, I can replicate the error.

Since the error doesn't seem to cause any real problems, for now I'll just wait whether it gets solved automatically in the next release of the forum.

If it starts to make any real problems, I'll try to debug it (e.g. see whether it depends on a particular plugin).

Not sure if it is just me, but I dont see the emoticons any more. When I click on the symbol, I get a tab for "legal information" on emoticons.

(Just a very minor inconvenience)

Working on it...

@taiwan_girl Try again now.

Twitter links vs embeded tweets.

Apparently Duck Duck Go Privacy Essentials was the culprit. I deactivated it on this site and embedded twitter is working.

The DuckDuckGo browser app does not appear to let me disable it, so Twitter embedding just won't work in the DuckDuckGo browser. (Not really a complain, just an observation.)

This is weird.

Embedded Tweet shows up but, scroll down and they do not.

I think in the particular examples, the tweet that was supposed to be embedded does no longer exist on the Twitter website, so it's not a problem with the forum itself.

That makes sense.

Official support for our Ubuntu version runs out in 2022, hence I'm upgrading to Ubuntu 20.04.

This can take a few hours in which the forum will likely not be accessible. I'm sorry about that.

[Jolly]

Sincerely, thank you.

[Klaus]

OK, that seems to have worked. Sweet.

Why does the X out of Y indicator/control overwrite the menu?

[Klaus]

@mark I noticed that, too. Maybe something wrong the theme, or the configuration thereof? A competent forum administrator, such as @mark, should look into this...

Because your browser window is too narrow.

[mark]

@george-k OK. I can go with that.

It still not optimal. I had to stretch my browser to the full width of my MacBook Pro screen.
