Messgae post linking problems?

  • Thread starter TumblingDice

In summary, the conversation involved a user experiencing a technical issue where their post appeared twice and was identified as post #20. They deleted the second post and now their post and the one preceding it are both displayed as #19. The user also mentioned seeing a message about a broken link or record not found, but the page looks fine except for the numbering issue. The thread continued with additional posts and the numbering incremented as expected, except for the two #19 posts.

I posted a reply a moment ago in this thread:
https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/how-do-i-calculate-this.773261/

My post appeared twice, and both were identified as post #20 in the top right corners. I refreshed the page and same display. Checked my posts from profile and sure enough, two messages. So... I deleted the second post #20. Now my post and the one from Ali preceding it are both display as #19.

Also, I swear I saw a message that read something like "link broken" or "record not found" or something 'not good' flash on the screen as the page displays. But it looks O.K. except fr the numbering...

'been watching. I saw that when Voko added a post, the pair of 19's (Ali and me) remained the same. Waited for another shoe to drop, yet DrStupid added another post a few minutes ago. The thread is now on a second page and post numbering is incrementing as expected, except for the two #19 posts.
