Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt November 11, 2024
David N. Posted January 7, 2024 Posted January 7, 2024 I have a broken page in my forum, probably due to a video that the user attached in his post. The page contains only his post, no footer, no sidebar, and I can't click the Moderation Actions link or the "..." button to edit the post.

opentype Posted January 8, 2024 Posted January 8, 2024 I would: open Source mode copy the entire post with the video and save it somewhere clear the post save the post and see if the video was the problem if so, rebuild the post from scratch without all the existing HTML code
David N. Posted January 8, 2024 Author Posted January 8, 2024 Unfortunately I cannot do anything at all on that page. I can't even edit the post. Clicking "..." doesn't pop-up the menu with the option to edit. Clicking the "Moderation Actions" link does not pop-up any menu either.
Nathan Explosion Posted January 8, 2024 Posted January 8, 2024 It's not just page 3, it's actually on page 2 aswell - that is where the original post is, which is then quoted on page 3 Do the following to edit... right click the ... menu (that would normally display the edit button) and select 'Open in new tab" (or window) You get the same page, with the menu now available. Click 'Edit' Didn't you have this before a while back? David N. 1
opentype Posted January 8, 2024 Posted January 8, 2024 It might also be worth deactivating the ads to rule them out. It’s very invasive ad content on these pages.

I had a broken page before but the issue wasn't the same, in fact it was the content of a user signature, so I was able to delete that user signature without having to edit the post. 3 minutes ago, Nathan Explosion said: right click the ... menu (that would normally display the edit button) and select 'Open in new tab" (or window) You get the same page, with the menu now available. Unfortunately I do get the same page - but the menu is still unavailable. 1 minute ago, opentype said: It might also be worth deactivating the ads to rule them out.

Solution Nathan Explosion Posted January 8, 2024 Solution Posted January 8, 2024 Nope, it's the broken HTML on the page... Just now, David N. said: I had a broken page before but the issue wasn't the same Yep, same issue again... David N. and SeNioR- 1 1
David N. Posted January 8, 2024 Author Posted January 8, 2024 (edited) 9 minutes ago, Nathan Explosion said: Yep, same issue again... Oh great, I forgot about that one! Thanks for bringing it up. You're correct that one was the same issue. So the same solution you had offered back then (to go directly to the edit page by appending ?do=editComment&comment=###### to the URL of the thread) worked again this time. All fixed. Thank you! PS: I didn't see a video embed URL in the HTML source code, so I couldn't retrieve the video link. My guess is, something went wrong with some of the videos during the conversion from phpBB to IPS.
