Trouble with Subscribe button

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 

I can't figure out why the button the subscribe to a specific thread does not do anything. No error, no nothing. I can subscribe by posting a reply to the thread, or I can subscribe to the entire forum (as in "Single Parenting"), or I can "follow" a person (creepy!), but I can't just subscribe to a single thread without replying to it first.

 

Is this intentional, or is it a bug?

 

Thanks!

It works for me and I've not seen any recent complaints from anyone that it does not. if you can provide your operating system and version and your browser and version I can check into it. Also, if you have another browser please try the button on that browser and let me know if you still have the same thing happening.

I find the subscribe button doesn't work if the page has not fully loaded. It is the same with the reply section.  If I don't see the edit menu at the top of the reply box (where you can change font, bold, etc) then I know my reply will get lost and that I can't subscribe via the subscribe button either.  I either have to refresh the page (if you are replying make sure you "copy" your reply first or you lose it) or wait and see if the page ever fully loads.

 

I use the latest version of Safari but it also happens WE.

 

HTH!

Thanks, I use Safari too. I tried Firefox just now, and it doesn't work either. I think it is an issue with the page not finished loading. It hangs on 34/35 items (Safari) or "transferring data from cdn.assets.sheknows.com"(Firefox). I'm guessing the ads just can't figure out how to finish loading? Gosh there is so much stuff going on on the sidebars and stuff, no wonder it can't load.

It sometimes works for me, sometimes doesn't. I can't find a rhyme or reason. I'm using Firefox.
