What happened to my post?

I posted a reply to my post "GB trip advice needed" and it seems to have disappeared! Anyone see it?

Thanks!
Love

NO, but I just posted a reply to Driving Directions in Italy, and it disappeared, too.

Maybe this will too...

I think that the forums take a while to update.

I think Fodors has been having some serious server problems lately -- the web site just hasn't been working well for a while now, it seems to me.

Sometimes that happens if there is too much traffic on it and it can't handle it, but usually it is obvious because it never "comes back" after you hit the post button to show it on the thread. I don't think I've seen it on the thread and then disappear. I've had the opposite problem a little -- it looks like it didn't post and doesn't say it did, so I hit it again and then it's there twice.

Could be the 5 second delay...

Happy Posting,

To see a thread in the most-updated state, just click on it. That's what I always do. It will tell you if you've succeeded in posting to it and in letting you read all the latest replies.

Sometimes you need to click on the thread a few times. The number of responses shown can be unstable (I guess this must depend on which version of the thread the browser retrieves) -- just pick the one with the most number of responses or updated the most recently, obviously.

I can see my post now, but on the left-hand screen it still says there are 0 responses.

I agree the site has been pesky lately.

Honestly, this site isn't the most user-friendly, but I think that I've finally managed to work around all the problems I can find. When in doubt, just click and click (and click).
