David N. Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 I've experienced this a couple of times on my iPad and also on my iPhone. A comment is added as a reply to a topic, and I can see that comment appear as being posted "6 minutes" ago on the topic list (the comment was actually posted 15 minutes ago). Yet when I click the "6 min" link it takes me to the first post of the topic and I can't see that last comment. I can access the last comment as expected from Chrome on my Mac. Another time on my iPhone I received an email notification that a reply had been posted to a topic, I clicked the link and could not see the reply. The reply appeared as expected on my Mac. After a while (15 or 20 minutes) I end up being able to see the comment on the iOS device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luuuk Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 To me it sounds like a caching issue. Do you have any caching system activated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Stridgen Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 It could only really be device cache, as you arent seeing the same happening anywhere else. Can replicate it at present. By this, I mean if you posted something now, do you know it will happen every time? If so, please can you do this and give me a link? I can then check on my iphone here David N. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David N. Posted April 24, 2023 Author Share Posted April 24, 2023 (edited) Yes, it looks like a caching issue. It occurs when you've already viewed a page, then someone posts an answer and you try to view that same page again. I just tried experimenting with a test post but I can't reproduce the issue when I reply to my own thread: my reply is immediately accessible in that case. Edited April 24, 2023 by David N.

Marc Stridgen Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Ah, is this people who are not logged in? If so, it will be guest cache Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iProxy Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Did you know that there is Chrome, ..., FireFox for iPad and iPhone which would allow to know if it is a bug with Safari iOS/iPadOS… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to read notifications though, you would be best to login as you may receive notifications that guest wouldn't be able to take action on and have other expected permission warnings with that.

It's not really an issue for me, now that I know, I could just stay logged in on my phone. It's an issue for my members though, as I can't imagine explaining that behavior to all of them. When they receive an email notification and click the button labeled "Go to this Post" and they don't see a post, they think something's wrong.
