I am again having issues posting answers on this site. I hope I'm not alone in this. Anyone else having issues.
I haven't been silent all week just unable to post.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

What has been happening to me is like if you accidently hit the 'insert' button on your keyboard. Sometimes the space bar doesn't work and combine 2 words or only parts of words type but not the whole word and when I go back to correct the word the fix will take a long time to show in the text.

I sometimes do - but I can't figure out if it's Mamapedia or some issue on my end such as slow internet speed. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason.

However, I often notice that I click "post" and nothing happens, so I am tempted to click a second time. This sometimes results in a double-post - and I often see that the same thing has happened to someone else, because I read their answer and then see the word "updated" and then the exact same post, all within the same box. So that's different from someone who posts and later goes back to update it, if that makes sense.

I've I'm not incredibly careful during this delay (which can take a minute or longer), and if I let the cursor wander such that it hovers over another icon, then a new site will come up on my screen, and Mamapedia will be lost. So if I see that things are slow or if I am writing something detailed, I often write in a word document, then copy & paste into Mamapedia. I don't erase that word document until I'm totally sure that my answer has posted. I've spent too much time really working on an answer and then POOF it's gone. Grrrr....

I also find I often have to click on "send a flower" a bunch of times before it registers.

Not sure if this is at all what you are undergoing, but I offer it up for your entertainment nonetheless!

I'm just now back on after a little MP break. I was able to write three responses (four if this one works) this morning. Occasionally, I have trouble being able to send flowers. In the past, I have also had problems with my responses disappearing when I hit post. Then, there will be a period of time with no problems. It's not just you, R.!

The other day I wrote a response and went to post. It looked like it had but it didn't appear. So I'm not sure what happens to our responses when that happens.
At times I have not been able to send flowers. I shut down the site and reopened and it then worked.
My biggest issue is the drag or how slow the site is at times. It's only now and then.

Having problems with my answers going away when I click post. I've, fortunately, got in the habit of copying my answers before I hit post. Then I have it where I can open it back up and just paste my answer again and again if I need to. Until it goes through.
