When I try to flag a post I get an error. Are the mods getting any info when this happens?

All I can say is sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

I just flagged my post # 3. It worked. Will someone other than a Mod flag #3. Please post that you flagged it. One is enough. :eek:

EDIT - Never mind. It looks like only Mods can flag posts. Tony ????? See post #5

I have in the past test flagged successfully after members mentioned not being able to. I have not noticed a flagged post in weeks though by members but did see GA's test flag.

Please keep on trying to flag them guys or as you know your welcome to PM any of us if you keep getting an error message.;)

Thanks again everyone.:)

Edit: GA, I seen your test, I clicked it then went back to recheck it and it was gone. I believe once someone has opened it completely it marks it as done automatically and the rest of us don't get to see it like we used to.

I saw the message light, FT. Then I tried a non-Mod flag and got the error posted in #5. So I cleared the flag, that's why it disappeared. I'll flag one for you, Fun. :D

That appears to be the case, Scott. I'm as :confused: as you. I guess you are getting the error I posted earlier.

I am kinda glad I posted this now. I figured you guys knew that us non-mods were having this issue!

I knew we were having the error for everyone a few weeks back, but I test flagged some posts late last week that worked. So I thought it was working, except I flagged while wearing the :mod:. Win some, lose some. :mad: There are some things working better for Mods and some things working better for non-Mods. Make life interesting when testing stuff, believe me. I switch back and forth a lot.

Ya it looks like I can flag posts as well. I'll see if there is a permissions setting limiting members from flagging posts.

It looks like this is a known issue in vBulletin. The issue report shows that it will not be fixed until 5.1.4, unfortunately they just barely released 5.1.3 last week.

ok, now can we force IB to listen to Its a small world..... or maybe Helen Reddy - the Las Vegas years
