I’m not sure what my rate is for this, but I’ve had a recent surge of this popping up when I use the feature. Sometimes I meddle around by liking and unliking and liking again just to see if the displayed outcome changes — and sometimes it does change.

To be the first to Like a post seems to work fine more than when I’m the second third or later to like the post.

I'm seeing a similar behaviour as well.

I am now more often than not ARG:6 or ARG:4 when liking posts. It's rare when it actually works for me - maybe 10% of the time?

Just for fun, I thought I'd try liking Buster's post:


Does everyone see that, or do people who aren't me see my username?

I never had this problem when it was reported in this thread in 2021: Use of Like feature resulting in “[ARG:4 UNDEFINED]”

Now I'm having this problem constantly. I'm more than 50% ARG:6 and the rest ARG:4. I'd say less than 5% of my "likes" are showing my name when I add them.

What broke recently?

[arg:4 undefined]
Whenever I like a post instead of seeing myself as a "liker" I see my name as [ARG:4 UNDEFINED].

This has been happening for a while now

Windows11 and Mac OS (latest) on Chrome and Safari

Same. It stopped for awhile but now it's back. It shows my handle if I am the first like. Then when someone else likes the same post, I've seen my like turn as stated above. And if I am the second like, it shows [arg:4 undefined]. I use Firefox.

I think I read somewhere that others viewing the post will see your correct handle. Only the liker sees the arg: nonsense. Which explains why i see no other arg: handles, other than my own, why I thought i was unique in this affliction

And this is also a clue as to exactly what is broken on the back end since the function/line of php code that pulls from the database and displays the line of likes is probably the same if you are the poster or not. And if it isn't the same, well, that's the problem.

Where I would previously anticipate the possibility of my “like”-ing of a post to result in Arg4/Arg6 showing up, I now no longer can “Like” the posts and what kicks back is “an error occurred”.

I think this is a separate issue related to the php8 update that has broken a lot of stuff on the site.
