Im having issues with editing my own posta. It seems to revert to older versions it’s very strange.

I’ve had the same issue for a while- if I go to edit a post I’ve already edited, the editable text reverts to the original.

However, when I go to the messages for that topic, where my post should be #150, it's not there. I've seen this happen before, where it looks like there are enough posts on a page that the next post shouldstart a new page, but it doesn't, and the post is then in limbo.Is this a known bug?"

Yes, this has been an issue here, as far as I'm aware, essentially forever. If you know there's an "invisible" post like this, you can click "Reply" to see it. You can also post an empty message and then your original post will appear at the top of the new page (and most people here will understand why you had to do that). 

For the record, I also have the same problem reported by binau and Kad!

Thank you, worked like a charm. Have never seen this anomaly on any other boards, very strange.

On the app it seems the backward and forward arrows that were always at the bottom of the Message Board section have disappeared.  The Message Board is now way less easily navigable.

Yep same for me. Extra frustrating when I click a link posted in a thread and then have to go back to the homepage and figure out where I was in a thread to continue reading.

Hi All - chiming in to say we passed this note along to our development team yesterday and a new App update will be available as soon as Apple approves the new version in the App store. Apologies, and thanks for your patience!

On my laptop, I am unable to edit/update my posts.  That function seems to have disappeared.  Thanks.

Edit function is back.  Thanks, MODs.  That was fast !

I just created an OT thread (Do You Have an Exercise Routine).  It includes a YouTube video.  If you click to view it, you are taken here to the Broadway Forums and can't access the thread.  What am I doing wrong?

The fact that a banned user can easily circumvent their ban and keep repeatedly returning over and over with new accounts in the span of a few weeks and that somebody can keep using multiple accounts at once suggests that there absolutely needs to be tighter security over account creation- to say nothing of the regular spam bots that appear or members who have the auto-generated "EnsembleXX" usernames. It's not 2002 anymore and BWW is running on outdated practices.

Others have noticed that there is a problem with the "Thumbs Up" function on the OT threads (perhaps here, too).  For example, if I post a comment, almost immediately I get a thumbs up.  Sometimes it's 2.  I know within reason that it is not a human giving me the thumbs up.

Does anyone know how to get a new profile image to appear on the threads? If I'm not mistaken, you'll see me to the left in the same orange tank-top I've been wearing for years on here, but if you click on it you'll see the more recent black-and-white photo I just uploaded to replace it.

kdogg - I had a similar issue. See mods responses #312 & 314 in this thread. The links that the provided may still work.

Is anyone else having an issue with the small blue box for "Schmigadoon Now On Sale"? it is covering the Chat Forum so no way to get into the forum unless you open one of the other headers. I was able to click on news and then bring up chat.

Again, can you please fix the "Thumbs Up" function on the OT side?  Example:  This morning I created a thread.  Perhaps 20 minutes later, there were 11 thumbs up, with only 2 views.  Others are having the same issue.  Something ain't working right.

You're most likely seeing 11 "thumbs up" because someone was trying to "like" it -- but wasn't seeing the thumb go dark -- so they kept hitting "like" until they gave up?

Same here.  Hasn't been working since yesterday on desktop (Google Chrome) or on IPhone.
