Why does the X out of Y indicator/control overwrite the menu?
Because your browser window is too narrow.

The layout recently changed for the forum on my iPhone. I’m not really liking the way the notifications are popping up on my dashboard and the search isn’t working.

Not sure if it is my internet or if anyone else is having a problem, but alot of the forum board features do not work anymore. For example:
search function
going to last unread post
seeing dates/times on posts
being able to hit the "reply" or "quote" button on someones post
only the last 10 or so posts can be shown. Not able to see any more than that.Using an iMac using Safari 15.3 and operating system Big Sur 11.6.4
Just happened a couple of days ago. I have "auto" updates on, so not sure if something updated and is causing the problem.
I suppose I could try another browser but would have to download one, and all the other webpages that i look at seem to be unaffected.

That's very strange.
Do you have a screenshot or something to illustrate the problem?
On my side, everything seems to work fine.

I just downloaded the Firefox browser and this forum board seems to operate normally with this browser.

This morning we had an outage that lasted an hour or two.
The reason was that the latest NodeBB upgrade fucked up the server pretty badly, and amazingly it was at first not even possible to restore from the last backup (the good old trick of turning it off and then on again eventually worked).
It is possible that a small number of posts has been lost.
I'll investigate this in more detail when I have more time.

I thought it was the Russians. TNCR would be the obvious place to start if you want to bring down Western civilisation, after all.

Any hope for the Twitter plug-in?
Or the spoiler plug-in?

Yes. I have a plan on how to make both work again.
The problem is: The "restore from backup" functionality is still not working. I'm currently in discussion with a guy from Cloudron (that's the software responsible for that) on how to solve that. I'm hesitant to risk anything before having a working backup functionality.

Thanks for the reply. It's more of an annoyance than anything else, of course. A minor thing compared to the catastrophe of a few days ago.

OK, reinstalled plugins this morning (I found a way to make a backup of the whole server, not just the forum - that should do as a safety measure).
This is the "standard" Twitter plugin, without the modification I made (which was to add a link below the embedded tweet). There were some posters who were having a problem with the embedded tweets, so maybe they'll be unhappy with the plugin. However, I'd rather not use my modification of the plugin again, because the status of being an "unofficial" plugin caused some of the problems we had.

The Twitter plugin does seem to be a little fragile. When I embed a tweet and hit "reply", I can't immediately see the tweet but only when I reload the page. Maybe it's just my particular browser. Let's see how that works.

OK, backup is working again. Luckily the Cloudron developers are quite helpful.
Turns out I stumbled upon a Cloudron bug they fixed a week ago, but the fix hasn't been officially released yet.
