Closed fixer1234 closed 8 years ago

fixer1234 commented 8 years ago

Installed Version: 1.X.X Environment: Chrome/Tampermonkey

Note: Firefox, not Chrome

...

Expected Behavior

Community Bulletin module should be missing on the right side of the main page. ...

Actual Behavior

Sometimes it's missing, most of the time it's displayed. Sometimes it's missing immediately upon loading the page, but gets inserted within a second or two. ...

SOX Errors logged to the browser console (if available)

logs scrubbed to remove personal data  -enki

...

Steps to reproduce

Load main page, look on right side.

I'm assuming the WorldBuilding image is is the Community Bulletin:

This is on v2.0.1a (1st time I checked this feature).

Just realized that what this feature is deleting is the Hot Meta Posts.

What site is this happening on? All of them? Looks like an ad to me, and, that might not be included in the actual Community Bulletin module.

A quick way to tell whether or not it is actually part of the Community Bulletin would be to run the following code in the console and see if it disappears.

$('#sidebar .community-bulletin').remove();

OK, what's being hidden by the feature is Hot Meta Posts. Looks like that's the Community Bulletin. So the feature is working. Nevermind.
