As shown in the snapshot above, the glitch makes it look like it was me who wrote the whole message, when in truth it was our forum member “ George “ who did. Upon stumbling across this glitch, I was speechless; I thought my account was hacked and someone was using my account to write on here. But then when I scrolled down below my username, I noticed George wrote the same message. Hopefully the mods can solve these annoying glitches. ---

I see that same problem. Sorry you are frustrated by it. I see it frequently. It only seems be visible to the person posting a new post to the thread, nobody else sees it, so suggest to just ignore. The next time you reload the thread it will be gone. ---

Follow up question. Has anyone duplicated this on a desktop? (The Discourse team did note there are some coding issues and we are in process of refining the diagnostic stuff, but it’s extra data.) Thanks. ---

Yeah, the PM messages are utterly ridiculous trying to read and reread again… ---

Hi. Discourse tech wrote me and said they thought they identified an issue creating the PM problem. Any success? I’m about to try mine now. Update. Still no success with PMs on desktop or mobile. have sent screenshots. ---

@cdaquila , suggest to review the comments already posted about software glitches here in the “site feedback” section. ---

Noted, thank you. Apparently fix has not been fully pushed for at least PMs. Will keep an eye on things. ---

We tested PMs within the Car Talk team and seems they are displaying correctly again. Want to try? ---
