"Quick Reply" box no longer working

I can still click on "reply" and everything is fine, but simply typing in the quick reply box there is no response so I have to copy/paste my latest tome into a proper "reply" dialog box.

Windows 10 and Firefox, all updated.

I had this happening on one browser, but switching to a different browser fixed it.

I just added a VPN and "Like, Reply and Notices" don't work from posts now.

Some browsers may be ratcheting up click through security with the big hacks that have been going on recently.

It was like that for a while on both browsers I use. It self corrected somehow. I had sort of the same thing with a daily hard crossword I print everyday. It would not load. I got it to work with Firefox, but not Chrome. I checked one day last week, it's working on chrome again. I did nothing.

Doesn't work with Firefox.

(I'd rather ride an aluminum bike that buy an Apple computer)

Windows 10 and Firefox; I had that happen just a little while ago. Now my clever response is lost to history. And quick reply's not working again. Bugger. Does regular reply work?

Same problem Windows 11 and Firefox. Imbedded Youtubes not displaying either, just blank posts where they would be. They are displayed in Edge.

Checking this and the other Firefox only issues out. We may not be able to do anything about it since its browser specific but I will let everyone know.

Quick reply doesn't work for me this evening. Worked once then never did again. I've never used the reply button before so I'm testing this to see if it works


(edit - it worked. problem not exactly solved but it will do.)

Hi everyone, our tech team is working on it and have come to a conclusion of why this is happening. They are going to wait until Monday to do anything though, so that way we can avoid anything bigger happening over the weekend. Come Monday though, we should have a fix for the quick reply.
