I have this issue on both flagging and regular ILX on my work computer. Don't have this on my phone or home computer.
― Moodles, Friday, 19 January 2018 19:22 (six years ago) link
for me, flagging is always up to date, but since I started using it, using ilx in-browser on my phone (really only necessary due to lack of search function, bookmark-browsing, and control-F) has been suffering this problem. super weird.

Same, I just choose to use my chrome browser instead. Don't know what keeps it from syncing across devices. This was a problem before flagging.
― Moodles, Friday, 19 January 2018 20:50 (six years ago) link
Strangely, that doesn't happen with me at all- bookmarks sync perfectly across flagging/phone chrome/desktop chrome.
― e-woke (NotEnough), Friday, 19 January 2018 22:20 (six years ago) link
Yeah, same here.
― ArchCarrier, Saturday, 20 January 2018 06:30 (six years ago) link
a new wrinkle: flagging isn't picking up that i changed my display name over in browser land. or perhaps ilx isn't telling itself that the DN is different anywhere besides this phone's browser. but... why would that be?

Just wondering: why doesn't Flagging use the bookmark function to load threads? Very long threads (for example, 'pitchfork is dumb') take a long time to load in Flagging, while it's instantaneous in a browser.
― ArchCarrier, Monday, 19 February 2018 13:25 (six years ago) link
Hi. I released a thing with some tweaks. If anyone is encountering bugs with posting, I'm eager to hear about it.
AC, are you loading the pitchfork thread from SNA or bookmarks?
― Uhura Mazda (lukas), Monday, 5 March 2018 02:28 (six years ago) link
Thanks for all the work you're putting into this!
- where do I click to go to the top of a thread? (new feature?)
- sometimes, threads just don't load - today, I haven't been able to open "Talking Heads - Classic or Dud?" at all. Spinning wheel & there it hangs forever. Cleaning cache, restarting phone, uninstalling the app & reinstalling, wifi at work, mobile data everywhere, wifi at home: nothing. And tomorrow (or next time I try, it'll probably just open as if nothing happened. Okay, it's Android 8.1.0 now, but even when I wasn't in the beta program I had this sometimes.
― StanM, Monday, 5 March 2018 15:46 (six years ago) link
For tap to top, scroll up a bit until the thread title appears, then tap it. You can also tap on tabs for SNA / Bookmarks / Boards to go to the top of those lists.Every thread failing to load (so far) has been the server spitting out XML a little differently than I expected. Will take a look at that one.
― Uhura Mazda (lukas), Monday, 5 March 2018 20:47 (six years ago) link
Hmm I see the issue now with threads loaded from bookmarks loading the whole world :( will take a look at that too.
― Uhura Mazda (lukas), Monday, 5 March 2018 20:49 (six years ago) link
thanks for your work on this, i use it all the time

Okay, I have a comment - when I have my tablet in landscape, I can't bookmark a post - the Send, Browser, Bookmark links are not visible. In portrait mode, they are. Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8, Android 7.1.1. The add new post + sign is visible in landscape mode.
― neutral yogurt (doo dah), Tuesday, 6 March 2018 21:53 (six years ago) link
Thanks again! that Talking Heads thread loads now
― StanM, Wednesday, 7 March 2018 03:35 (six years ago) link
Thanks for looking into the slow loading from bookmarks, lukas!
― ArchCarrier, Wednesday, 7 March 2018 08:21 (six years ago) link
There is something in the Ant & Dec s/d thread that makes the Flagging app crash on my android - don't need to fix that for me though, just letting you know in case it's useful
― StanM, Monday, 19 March 2018 10:10 (six years ago) link
it happens when I scroll up past that black and white photo
― StanM, Monday, 19 March 2018 10:12 (six years ago) link
Just happened to me when I tried it as well.
― how's life, Monday, 19 March 2018 10:15 (six years ago) link

not that i've experienced! still invaluable.
(ok i still would love search, FP, browsing your own bookmarks, and find-in-page. but i really ain't complaining, this app is great!)
― This is a total Jeff Porcaro. (Doctor Casino), Friday, 3 August 2018 23:58 (five years ago) link
thanks for making the app! it's greatsearch is the most obvious thing that would be nice...but...I bet that might be, to use a technical term, a whole nother can of worms so no worries
― The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Saturday, 4 August 2018 00:26 (five years ago) link
Yeah, I love this app too, and if search is too hard to include in it, that's okay. Thanks for your work on it!
― Tuomas, Saturday, 4 August 2018 11:24 (five years ago) link
App is still great obv, but long threads still take a long time to load from bookmarks.
― ArchCarrier, Monday, 8 October 2018 19:23 (five years ago) link
Just pushed an update that should fix that.
― Uhura Mazda (lukas), Tuesday, 9 October 2018 02:22 (five years ago) link
The Pitchfork thread (the longest thread in my bookmarks) loads almost instantly, so thanks for the update!
― ArchCarrier, Friday, 19 October 2018 07:25 (five years ago) link
Something in the Shocking plagiarism thread crashes Flagging (as pointed out in that thread), right around this post: Shocking plagiarism

I'm not gonna have computers for a couple months but I'll look into that (and any other issues that pop up) when i get back
― Uhura Mazda (lukas), Saturday, 15 December 2018 20:44 (five years ago) link
Any idea why the Mark Hollis thread is the only thread currently not loading for me on Flagging?

― kinder, Tuesday, 26 February 2019 22:50 (five years ago) link
the hollis thread loads fine for me but i had it bookmarked so idk. could maybe have something to do with the thread title change
― diamonddave85āā (diamonddave85), Tuesday, 26 February 2019 23:27 (five years ago) link
I dunno if this is fixable, but if I've bookmarked a post in a thread with hundreds of posts, and the bookmarked post is not among the most recent posts, rather than among the posts the app automatically hides, when I click on the bookmark the app doesn't jump to the bookmarked post. Instead it just shows the most recent posts, and I have to keep on clicking the "load 100 earlier messages" until I find the bookmarked spot.
― Tuomas, Tuesday, 12 March 2019 11:06 (five years ago) link
Yeah i've had that too, when threads are really going nuts.

Somehow I only just found this app. (Serves me right for rarely straying from ILM.) Looks good. Please excuse this one boring test post...
― Nag! Nag! Nag!, Tuesday, 19 March 2019 08:18 (five years ago) link
This is the ILX APIs fault: it only serves up the most recent 100 posts for a bookmark unless you tell it to page. Iām looking into fixing it
― stet, Tuesday, 19 March 2019 08:19 (five years ago) link
It's not working for me atm
― kinder, Sunday, 31 March 2019 22:43 (five years ago) link
Not working in what way? If you just get an endless spinner, try closing and reopening the app.
― lukas, Monday, 1 April 2019 01:58 (five years ago) link
I had several "server not responding" messages from theporouscity yesterday (both AM and PM) but I figured patches or upgrades were being done and it worked again a bit later every time
― StanM, Monday, 1 April 2019 02:18 (five years ago) link
Yeah that but it's ok now
― kinder, Monday, 1 April 2019 07:51 (five years ago) link
A few times now I've written a post on a thread and hit the submit button and the app says "Reply posted" but the post (so lovingly composed) is nowhere to be found.
― mick signals, Friday, 27 September 2019 19:54 (four years ago) link
Sorry :(
When I next have a vacation day I'll roll out a quick fix that leaves the post in draft, so you can recover it if posting fails. Then there's some work to hopefully fix the problem by better aligning posting with how Zing does it.
