That was true for my office computer, not my personal one at home.

I was unable to see embedded tweets and YouTube videos until a short time ago. The issue was in the OneTrust "Do Not Sell My Personal Information." I did not permit the "Sale of Personal Data" Once I did, the embedded tweets magically reappeared I assume that the same goes for embedded YouTube videos.

Simply go to the bottom of any FlyerTalk Forum page and click on the "Manage Preferences" link. It's in the center of the page on the mobile site and the right-hand side of the bottom menu bar on the desktop version.

Yeah, no thanks if I really care about the embeds on a post, there are other ways to dig the link out.

Since double-clicking the globe works to mark all threads as read on all my subscribed forums other than this one, it seems like this should be a simple fix. I mean, if it works everywhere else, it shouldn't be a browser or OS issue, should it?

IBJoel posted in the private moderators' forum late yesterday afternoon that some cookies that affected moderation tools and infinite scrolling in the mobile version, and embedded tweets and YouTube videos in both the mobile and the desktop versions were incorrectly categorized. I have yet to change the cookie settings, however, the mobile version functionality is back to normal and I am now able to moderate and scroll through thread pages while on my phone (permitting the sale of information did not fix that issue).

It shows there is a page 5 but you click it and it goes nowhere. My guess is there is no page 5.
In the past, this would happen if posts had been deleted. Clicking on the last page number would just result in the previous page (or last page with posts) being (re)loaded.

Confirmed working for me.
As is being able to navigate to specific pages on mobile view.
Thanks!

TWA884 seemed to infer it was something to do with incorrectly categorised cookies? I did suggest it was too many cookies 🍪 in the jar previously 😜

FlyerTalk recently changed cookie management for CCPA and GDPR compliance from TrustArc to OneTrust.

The privacy interface shown in your screenshot is TrustArc's. Try clearing the cache and deleting all the FlyerTalk cookies and logging back in.

TWA884 : thanks for the tip
I have cleared cache + cookies + website data on Safari IOS16

Problem still persists : above pop up appears and i am unable to select any of the privacy settings options
Preventing me access to the page....

Even allowing all features enabled via this pop up:



doesn't make the "we value your privacy pop up at the photo album page " away.....

could it be because of CCPA and GDPR compliance

my flyertalk place of residence is Great Brittain
my PC uses Gibraltar as location or my ipad the Netherlands
my language settings are Dutch and Amsterdam timezone

that the CCPA / GDPR setting are confused ?

HadesNL, sorry, I have no idea. It took me a while to figure out how to access my Pictures & Albums, but I am able to see all of what I have uploaded or posted.

IBJoel ?

To close the loop, I can now scroll through pages on the mobile site again. I'm not sure when this was fixed (I took a few days off FT since it was too hard to use with scroll broken) and today when I logged in again it was working.

I think there is something more to this issue (besides some caching that I personlly could affect by posting new ), because the forum itself is confused. Eg, if I check my recieved likes, I get a link to
The Finnair höpö-höpö (nonsense) thread

Clicking that link, sends me to page 464 (that doesn't exists) and then to page 462 which is the actual last. However the linked post is not there.

But, and this is the funny part, if I scroll ever so slightly down and then ever so slightly up again, the page magically reloads into page 461, just below the linked post. This behaviour is in Opera, can't get the same result in Firefox.

This is really awesome. Not.

In case I missed a reply to this issue, I have the same one. I have checked the bell in the upper right corner of the screen, but it does not immediately the replied to posts, maybe 2 days later. Luckily, I can see my subscribed to posts and when reviewing them, I will see something that was replied to.
