Many overlapping problems with website

Sarracenia 12/27/2023 01:44 pm 967

I tried to pos/t a thre-ad with a li/nk but can’t tell if it got eaten or is just temporar/ily unpu/blished for review. I tried to look for help but the for/um se/arch is inaccessible and only lets me do us/er se/arch no matter what I clic, so I tried to po/st a thr/ead with a more detailed que/stion about it, but it said my top/ic was re/petitive and would not let me. I have censored words here in hopes that mechanism won’t kick in here! I’m so frustrated and feel like I can’t use the site. Does anyone have help for even one of these issues?

@Sarracenia: If a thread has been posted successfully, you will be redirected to your thread but there will be a big orange box at the top saying “This thread is pending approval by a moderator. Only you can see this thread until it has been approved. Nobody can reply to the thread until it has been approved.“

It sounds like something went wrong for you with the redirect between Cloudflare and the site because it shouldn’t lose the post like that.

I have enabled a panel on your profile so that you can view all of your threads - including the ones that are pending approval. Only you can see it; other users can't see it.

I've also been looking into why your post was lost, but from our end it looks like the thread text should have been preserved, so I can only assume there was an error when redirecting back to this site from Cloudflare. I'm still looking to see if there's anything I can do to prevent it from happening again.
