RE: Phooey!
I started this thread before we went into the new configuration for the forums a week ago (?) I am not so versatile with computers as to understand how to switch "browsers". And am loath to try. (If it ain't broke, don't fix it!)
Well,,,, until now anyways.

Operating system is Windows 10, version 22H2 to be exact.
Using Microsoft Edge for the browser.
Login, go to forums, the General Discussion.
Create new thread. (Named test thread)
Got to forum main page. leave site.
Return to PG-HQ, go to forums, go to General Discussion forum
Confirmed test post was still present.
Deleted test thread.
Conclusion, normal process has not produced a problem. Process also worked with Firefox.
... More and more, people around the world are coming to realize that the world is flat!

RE: Phooey!
One thing Gunny...
If you've locked down your taskbar at the bottom of your page?
I sometimes run into issues with that....
(right click on your taskbar at the bottom of screen {usually...} and there is a task bar settings gear
toward the bottom of the menu that pops up....unlock your task bar...it may reveal the bottom of the
browser....
Damn computers....)

RE: Phooey!
So, there I was, getting ready to try a new approach to fixing my "little problem" and (Lo and behold!) there it was, the post thread button, down at the bottom of the page like it is supposed to be. Now..... YOU figure out what happened because it is WAY over my head! (These machines are BOUND and determined to run us mere humans into insanity!  )
I wonder if plloy1010 EVER has a problem with these crafty machines?

Quote:once you learn to threaten them properly, they get in line
I was working on a problem with a virtual machine at work. Brought in an engineer and we spent about an hour messing with configurations and trying to understand why an automated deployment wouldn't run. Finally he said, "I guess just blow away this virtual machine and spin up another one." A moment later the deployment started running.
Turns out all we had to do was threaten to delete the difficult machine.
