    This is still happening. The top wiki page is now "The Complete Guide to Outsource Accounting Service".

    It would probably be easier to revert if the History feature gets fixed. And then it will also be easier to see who's doing the vandalism.

    With any luck, it's just the History displaying logic that's broken, and the edits are really there in the history data. If the system really has been failing to even record the edit history, that'll be sadder.

    How often do you access the site? I've noticed when this site is down, I'll go over to CleanMPG, which has similar (except not messed up) software, typically when it's been a few months, and I usually need to log in again.

    ^above quote from page 13, posted may 5

    Still the case, at least on my iPhone. Pretty much anything you do requires a page refresh.

    i'm so used to hammering the refresh and new posts buttons, i finf myself doing the same thing over at bolt chat, where things tend to run much more smoothly, and there are many moderators.

    Yeah if I edit post, one time, and save changes, most everything is fine. Expect my post is MISSING, till I refresh page.

    Then if I do a second edit, and forget to refresh the page while in the edit window, PC has served up my pre-edit version. So when I do a second edit and resave, I lose that first edit, if I don't catch on.

    Again, this seems to only be happening for me on iPhone, on a windows pc it behaves.

    @Danny was "active" last Thursday, for what it's worth.

    Well it’s been a while, and on an iPhone: nothing has changed. You’ve basically got to be cagey as hell, manually refreshing every dang page on this site. Multiple edits on a post are particularly treacherous: forget to refresh and you end re-saving stale text.

    @Danny, please get someone to look into this.

    hell I just did it: I had a third paragraph here, regarding ad-block possibly being a factor, but necessity.

    anyway…

    Who’s Danny?
    There was someone by that name that dropped into one of the lithium batteries argument threads, but that must be someone else

    I love it when edits disappear and “Recent Activity” is from yesterday.

    Don’t use ad block but still happens like clockwork.

    Refresh, refresh, refresh. Until you forget...

    Again, just in case anyone's actually listening in, this is on an iPhone. Site more-or-less behaves now, on my Windows 10 PC.

    It must suck. I have none of those issues on Android with Firefox, even with using uBlock Origin as an ad blocker.

    Had to retype a few paragraphs this morning, having neglected to refresh the page, doing a second edit. Took someone’s name in vain…

    that’s on an iPhone SE2, with Safari.

    Practically a year now, since everything was “fixed”.

    Our son's always pestering us to go over to Android: cheaper phones, more this, less that. But bird in the hand governs so far...
