Redirecting after posting not working
I noticed yesterday that if I post in a topic, I get to the page saying that I will be redirected back to the topic, but this redirection does not happen. It used to work but it seems to take ages now... I waited a few minutes to be sure, but no redirection...
Is this a known problem or is it something at my end? I don't find anything in the bug tracker or the forum. I'm using firefox from core (3.6.8).

Re: Redirecting after posting not working
Is this reproducible?

nope not at my end.
There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !

Re: Redirecting after posting not working
Trying again...
EDIT: it seems to happen every time here, I first noticed it yesterday. For this post I waited almost three minutes but nothing happened, it is also not a connection issue, firefox is just doing nothing and I have no other issues with the bbs. I have auto-suscribe when posting enabled, I'll turn it of now and see whether it helps the next time I post.
EDIT2: it seems to be a broader issue, it also happens when updating my profile.

Re: Redirecting after posting not working
Do you use some strange plugins like noscript etc.? Try a plain firefox profile. (e.g. move .mozilla)

Re: Redirecting after posting not working
You can tell Firefox not to redirect by default or to warn you if a page wants to redirect you. There should be a link to click if auto-redirect fails.
Edit: I just posted, Firefox warned me, I allowed redirection - and I'm being succesfully redirected.
I could've clicked the link that starts with "Click here (...)"
Post entered. Redirecting …
Click here if you do not want to wait any longer (or if your browser does not automatically forward you)Last edited by karol (2010-08-16 10:58:36)

Re: Redirecting after posting not working
@Pierre: I am using noscript but archlinux.org is set trusted, I'll try with a clean profile tomorrow nonetheless.
@karol: No such warning...
EDIT: I just got redirected! I didn't change anything... I'll try again later.
