Issue: blog comments borked

[antemortem]

dunno if this was already made, but every single time I try to comment on a blog entry it says my message was too short and makes me rewrite it in the advanced reply menu.

I've had this issue now for about 4 months. It also happens when I try to publish a blog. If I hit back and then try to submit again, everything is fine for some reason. I'm currently using The Johto Elite, but have had issues on all skins.

I can't reproduce this issue at all. ): Can you guys give me any more information? Any detail you could give here would be useful. What length does it say your comments should be, is it on your blog or others', when did it start happening, etc.

Maybe it's if you make a short comment? I've had this issue for a long time now as well - glad it's not just me! I don't have details about it though because I never thought to consider it, but it might be short comments.

 

[derozio]

It happens with me regardless of what length the comment is. It just always happens. Always.

Been that way for 3 months I guess? I don't remember.

It says it needs to be at least one (1) character, even if my comment is a few sentences long. Obviously not 4/25'd. It's happened on The Stand Nexus and Sky High thus far, since those are the only two styles I ever use. That's all the information it gives me. Even if I type the exact same message it doesn't tell me I've posted a duplicate message. I can type something different and it doesn't post two different comments, it just acts like the first thing never existed aka it deleted it entirely. Upon being redirected to the advanced page where the error message shows up, the content box is empty so I do have to retype from scratch.

That's about all I've got.

tested it on https://www.pokecommunity.com/blog.php?bt=99498 that blog post as normal user (durr..) and no issues on nexus or forum default (IIRC lets fly together) on my end..
gonna have dig deeper i suppose.

On another note, one of my blog comments got quoted but I didn't get a notification for it. Dunno what was going in with that, but thought I'd bring it up.

So I... just managed to make this happen for me and now I'm even more confused than before. It only happened when I used Firefox - not Safari, not Chrome. Anyone else experiencing this? I don't think it's a usergroup issue since I've tried with several staff and non-staff ones now.

 

[antemortem]

oh I've been using firefox. I can't test it on chrome right now but I will and will get back to you.

I'm using Firefox right now and had no issues using the blog quick reply on PokeLink 3. I'll try it on Stand Nexus and see if it happens.

EDIT: No issues with Stand Nexus.

I use Chrome and Firefox both depending on if I'm at work or at home and I know this has happened to me before, so it could be browsers.

e: just tried to comment on one of my own blogs with "Testing comment that is over 25 chars" and got the error on Firefox and Y-Axis.

I can confirm the Chromatic skin doesn't have this problem. I'm still using this skin and I just commented on some blog entries and my comment went through with no issues.

It's not a style issue. I just tested it on my browser in Chromatic and got the same problem.

I'm using Google Chrome as my browser and mine came out with no issues so yeah I think you're onto something here.
