Somehow it seems as though your system is blocking the (locked) element. What do you see here: »Hurricane Hamster Update ?

Same. No 'reply' buttons, identical loaded elements & order.

That's three different site pages, three different forums, three different browsers tested. I don't see how it can be anything other than an account profile issue.

What theme are you using?

Hrmm. Don't know. How do I reset to default?

Actually, I think I've figured it out. On this page: »/prefs/forum , see what your Topics view default is set to. If it's set to nest, change it to flat and see if you can now see the (locked).

I think you did. When I went to the nest mode I saw the same thing jap See Profile has been seeing.

BINGO!

Though 'text' was the setting. Nested is broken too. Only 'flat' displays as expected.

Surely you're not all using the flat option(?). Also doubt Justin intended them to render differently. I'll keep the bug report up.

I rarely use any but the flat option. That way all the posts display in order of posting.

True, and I do like that benefit but it's trumped by eyeball ease of following who replied to what.

Though maybe not now that I see Flat also doesn't bury the posts of longer branches (see image*). I hate that and made a site feedback thread about it somewhere long ago. Got rebuffed.

Ideal would be nested + nothing buried + posts new since last page load distinguished by high color contrast, a blinking red margin arrow, or some such.

* Example taken from this thread with buried posts being these.

...In an ideal world, where everyone replied properly. Most often you get a mix of people who reply to a post or the topic itself, almost at whim. That in itself would mess up any threading.
