David N. Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 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 Share Posted January 8 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David N. Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Explosion Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opentype Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 It might also be worth deactivating the ads to rule them out. It’s very invasive ad content on these pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Solution Share Posted January 8 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... SeNioR- and David N. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David N. Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 (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.
