Phantom datestamp on comment

It appears that new posts show up on the timeline with the same date as the previous comment. This is correctly updated only once the page is reloaded from the menu. Haven’t done exhaustive testing.

The comment editor is really excellent. Far superior to most platforms.

Hi scidata – I’ve done some testing, and I haven’t been able to duplicate this.

It doesn’t quite sound like what you describe, but the only thing coming to mind is that if your local computer time is off somehow, or doesn’t match your user time zone, post timestamps would act strangely.

:heart: I’ll share that with the Discourse team!

Thanks toddz. It really is minor, don’t bother with it. It continues to happen, I’m just curious - maybe it’s a browser or O/S issue (client side). FWIW, I’m using Chrome on Windows 10 on this machine.

I’ll keep an eye out as I post, but yes, since the timestamp is recorded correctly it sounds like maybe a bit of javascript is stalling out locally before updating the display.
