hotwire - And this was when you clicked the create post button? Yup, the message is saved, but this displays instead of taking you to the message. If I was to stick my programmer hat on there could be some sort of concatenation going haywire somewhere. But I figure if it was systemic it would be seen all over Proboards, so it must be something specific to my settings/setup. If it was before the first / I'd suggest my DNS could be doing something odd, but it is after so... 🤷

Thanks for checking. Are you in the US? I wonder if there is some geographic element to it (I may be clutching at straws)

hotwire - Our systems team has looked as this and are unable to reproduce the issue or see internal forum errors that would indicate a problem. Is there a specific set of actions (like a trigger scenario) that is consistent for you in causing the issue?

Scott please let me know if there are too many cooks in the kitchen, but looking at the URL there's a comma being injected but i'm not seeing any discussion? sorry i may have misunderstood. there are several errors when loading the forum as a whole, seven specifically on the create a reply page, six of them from external sources.

hotwire - Our systems team has looked as this and are unable to reproduce the issue or see internal forum errors that would indicate a problem. Is there a specific set of actions (like a trigger scenario) that is consistent for you in causing the issue? I'll do a screen record later, but it is pretty much any time anyone (although apparently no one here!?) posts anything, a reply, a new thread. Seeing as it isn't a theme thing I thought it could be something in the Global Header blocks, which have a bunch of external javascript in them (to Kami 's point this is where most of the on page errors come from and are mostly out of my control). However removing all that this didn't fix the issue. I also reloaded all the javascript in case something odd had got cached (which would explain why new folk don't get the issue), but that didn't solve it. Will do some more investigating today, the issue is the comma in the url, the question is how it gets there.

Some more investigation Scott I've found I can repeatedly hit the same issue by clicking any of the Last Post thread links from the home page: forum.retro-rides.org/ in the desktop/wider than 575px view I've been combing through the combined.js and the proboards.data element in case there is a stray comma somewhere floating around, or I could find the bit of code that is triggered before the redirect error to give you some direction to look in. No luck so far, but eliminated a number of options, so that is kind of a good thing. There is a lot of regex floating around which is often demarked with /, wouldn't take much for one of these to get a bit messed up and end up incorrectly matching or replacing, but again this would seem to be a wider spread issue than just my little old forum. The fact it doesn't happen for people that haven't visited before is very interesting. I'll continue to investigate.

Okay this url returns a 302 for me: forum.retro-rides.org/threads/recent/224317Which is one of the url that is on the home page. The 302 Redirect Location is: /,/thread/224317/1985-phase-south-african-import?page=1#scrollTo=2773649 so the full url ends up being: forum.retro-rides.org/,/thread/224317/1985-phase-south-african-import?page=1#scrollTo=2773649 I suspect whatever is wrong that causes this response from the 302 is the same as the response redirect for people posting replies. It works fine in incognito mode, but not when I'm logged in, in incognito mode. Also when I logged in it tried to take me to forum.retro-rides.org/,https://forum.retro-rides.org post login Also once I get it once, even if I log out in incognito mode it keeps happening, even if I shut down the window and reopen.

OK this might be a silly question, but do you have any browser addons/extensions, anything relating to an antivirus or anti-malware software that may impact your browser, things like that?
Incognito working until you log in and it persisting after doing so even if you log out sounds like a cookie issue -- something gets set when you log in, and then doesn't go away. Have you tried clearing cache and cookies either "from all time" or to a point before this started happening on the regular browser (chrome should let you target a specific site to clear, if you don't want to get logged out of everywhere) and see if clearing lets you experience the same behaviour as incognito?
I know others have experienced similar things but there's always a possibility y'all have the same trigger for it, or that you have different triggers that share a particular property or trait.

It is a reasonable avenue to check, but it would need to be something that all of my regular users also had installed. I only have Google Lighthouse, VisBug and a couple of other site specific ones installed. I also just fired up Firefox which I don't have any extras installed, and isn't using the same engine as Chrome, Edge etc. and that has the same behavior (and I'm not logged in on that as I only ever use it for testing)

It's probably a higher likelihood that you share that with other members, over extensions/plugins directly in the browser. Antivirus/antimalware don't necessarily need to install things to a browser to impact them, so it's worth a check.

This is apparently happening at login for some people: If that is any use.

Just a courtesy "PB will be back during business hours, M-F 9am to 5pm Pacific/-8gmt" reply, but also good gracious what an error... I have never heard of this happening in the ~18 years I've been using ProBoards and I am completely stumped. No other forums are reporting an issue even close to this so far, and everyone experiencing the issue is on wildly varying browsers. Are there any similarities between the users experiencing this issue? Like, general location or ISP, time of day, anything? Can you think of anything unusual that preceded the issue's first instance? I'm definitely grasping at straws here, this is an incredibly bizarre, unique problem that I have spent several hours over the last couple of days trying to identify and am coming up empty every time.
