I noticed that nothing happens if i click on the arrow-button (which is pointing upwards) in a quote: ... but only if the quoted post is located on the same page. If the quoted post is on a different page, it works I tested it with a portable version of Chrome without extensions or modifications. So i can be sure that nothing interferes. Chrome v60 a) quoted post is located on the same page = click on the arrow-button = it jumps to the post b) quoted post is located on a different page = click on the arrow-button = it loads the page and jumps to the post in both cases it is working correctly Chrome v61.0.3163.79 = a) quoted post is located on the same page = click on the arrow-button = nothing happens b) quoted post is located on a different page = click on the arrow-button = it loads the page and jumps to the post in case a) it is not working I have visited the official Xenforo-Forum and there it seems to work, it always jumps to the quoted post. I'm not sure if this is a problem of Chrome v61 or of XenForo, especially on Wilders
Yes, confirmed. At first, when I noticed yesterday or the day before, thought it was caused by a broken link somehow or a deleted comment. But no, it still failing on any page I tested a few min. ago.
Going to check other xenforo based forums. I'll be back... lol Edit: Confirmed same behavior on MDL, Technibble and MT forums.
Works okay with Firefox (ESR), so it may be a chrome problem. Maybe the official xenforo forum sw is a different version then what other forums are using where it fails.
Happens with Chrome Version 61.0.3163.100 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Linux as well. Also on Linux, Firefox 58 and Qupzilla (2.1.2) work properly in this respect.
This page's arrow links checked with Google Chrome Version 61.0.3163.100 (Official Build) (32-bit), and several other pages as well. No issues. Extensions: Canvas Defender 1.1.0 | HTTPS Everywhere 2017.9.12 | uBlock Origin 1.14.8
After a click on the arrow in #5 you see it scrolling to Post #2 ? I have tried it again, but now with the 32-bit version of Chrome and i can see the same result as in #1
mood, on second reading, you stated "scrolling" and while my Firefox 55.0.3 (32-bit) does "scroll" to whatever post the arrow is pointed to, Google Chrome "reloads" the page to whatever post the arrow is pointed to. I wanted to note that difference between these 2 browsers.
Hello, @mood and @Mister X I have the same issue as both of you and can not for the life of me figure it out... So neither one of you are alone...
I can confirm problems using arrow even if quote is located on same page. URL changes but browser doesn't scroll to specific post.
I have tested Chrome 62beta and Chrome v63dev with a fresh profile, no extensions and i can still see the same issue. It isn't reloading the page. Mysterious But my assumption is now, that the arrow-button itself is (somehow ) the culprit. My post in the test forum: The arrow-button and my link "." share the same url but the arrow-button doesn't want to work (Chrome) Ater looking into the XenForo Forum i can see that "... said" is also underlined (this is only the case in the XenForo Forum) (not only the arrow-button) Wilders: arrow-button = doesn't work MT: arrow-button = doesn't work XenForo: a click on: "... said" = Surprise: it works
FYI. I don't see the "mood said" text linked, only the arrow next to the words, while looking at Wilders: I do see the XenForo forum having both the "said" and arrow (circle) linked; clicking both reloads the page to whatever post it's pointing to.
Yes, this is what i can see too and "... said" is only underlined (linked) in the Forum of XenForo. Btw.: I have tried the same portable version and it doesn't want to work. Additionally i have tried portable versions of: Chrome v62beta, Chrome v63dev and still the same result.
Re: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/test.396943/#post-2708584 Yes, Member Minimalist tried it and did not work either. You can see what I stated in the above post. Perhaps we can find something in the code.. or not.
I'm not sure what you think we can do about this. Chrome's prior version worked fine with redirecting the page to the quoted post. Then Chrome changed - something, and it no longer works. Above, people pointed out that multiple XenForo forums, like Us, Malware Tips, MDL, and Technibble, all show the same exact issue. None of us changed. Chrome changed. Now, the code doesn't work. So, that means what exactly? If you are wondering why the XenForo site itself doesn't show the same issue, it's because they are in the middle of a huge, multi-year rewrite to what they call XenForo 2.0. It is totally different code, so, it works differently. That code is Beta only though. We're not likely to migrate to that for, what, at least a year if not more.
Trooper, here you go: Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/no-canvas-fingerprinting/ Chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/canvas-defender/obdbgnebcljmgkoljcdddaopadkifnpm You'll find an ongoing discussing of this add-on, and others here: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/html5-canvas-fingerprinting.386179/
XenForo has just released a fix for the Chrome 61 problem. https://xenforo.com/community/threads/xenforo-1-5-15a-released.134773/#post-1178624 If you still see the problem, you may need to clear cache and restart browser. The fix was to a JavaScript file, as it's that which controls the action on clicking the arrows, so you'll need to get that loaded by Chrome.
Yes, after clearing of the cache and clicking on the arrow (or: quote attribution link) it scrolls to the post now
