Found it. In fact, I found three of them. The system saved it each time you posted, but for some reason saved it as Pending. This makes it visible to me in the administration area, but doesn’t display it on the front, visitor-facing, side of things.

Not sure why this should have happened, I suspect that it may have been a fluke with your account (permissions and that sort of thing), but I can’t reasonably explain it right now especially since this topic was created for you without issue.

Anyhow, I’ve set your water post to a published status and all is well.

@bram – now that I’ve had a chance to look at it, I think perhaps the links (2 links) caused it to get flagged by the spam filter. I think I’ll adjust those settings to make it a little less restrictive.

I also have troubles posting.

I wrote yesterday a comment on the following forum topics http://teatra.de/forums/topic/blending-oolongs/

It doesn’t appear there (at least not for me) but it can be seen in the activity stream.

I don’t know if anyone else can see my post.

Found them. Same issue as before, I tweaked the settings the other day since moving the Tea Trade blog onto the main site. It seems to have affected how the forums work (all the content is a related type so it doesn’t surprise me).  Made a few changes just now. Post again to keep me updated if it happens again.

I posted something in the Office tea post and it doesn’t appear in the Activity or when you look at the forums but when you click on the topic, it is there.

The website was down for an unknown reason (maintenance I think) when I posted it.

Could it be the reason?

No idea @xavier, don’t know if @peter has. I’m guessing maybe because of those maintenance reasons you mentioned.

@Peter @worldoftea posted an update to my activity and I received a notice in my email but I can’t find it in the website.

yeah, @jackie let me know and @worldoftea mentioned it on Twitter, but I’m not able to recreate it or find anything in the error logs. Something may have happened at the moment Tony tried to post. I tested the reply myself and it worked fine. Might a browser type/cache issue.

@worldoftea – I hijacked your account briefly by setting a temporary password so that I could test the permissions of your account to see if that was an issue ( @jackie should have sent you a PM on Twitter by now to give you the temporary password).

In your account, I had no problems posting a reply in the activity stream. I tested it in Chrome and Firefox. I don’t have access to a Windows computer right now so I’m not able to test in IE. Seeing that it worked for me, I’m comfortable that its not a permissions issue. I do suspect that it is a browser/javascript problem, actions such as replying and posting updates in the activity stream depends heavily on ajax. 

Two questions, what browser are you using and do the other ajax functions work? The easiest way to test the ajax is to look at the activity stream and select a different filter or just click the Load More link at the bottom of the page.
