Sidebar WTF never opening
-
I have a strange bug, when I click on the sidebar heading on the main page, nothing happens. This is a problem since it doesn't show the topic list when closed and it always defaults to closed for some reason.
-
relocated to bugs category.
can you provide a screenshot, and what browser you are using when the issue occurs?
-
I got the same thing earlier, and all the articles had 0 comments, last comment @ none on them.
Looks fine now though
-
I think I'm seeing the same thing
although Chrome's dev tools (and the fact that none of the other panels open or close) suggest that the panel is just empty.
-
.... anyone put any HTML in titles lately?
cause it did that last time i experimented with adding a <div> tag to the title of a sidebar topic.....
filed under: razzum frazzum.... the one time i don't want to make a hidden comment......
-
I don't see anything weird looking at the list of topics in the sidebar right now.

looks like it’s working now; must have been a momentary outage.
-
Yep, stuff is there now for me, too.
Server cooties, I'm sure.

Server cooties, I'm sure.
we have something worse than that i'm sure....
Server crabs i think is what we have.

-
very tiny ones, yes.

They wear top hats with monocles?
@abarker's inspiration, so I heard on the grapevine.

Can I just point out that this made me laugh? A sad, cynical laugh, but it was a good one.

you still exist, what?

Darn. If it were headcrabs, we could get @Onyx on the case.

I got it!

I don't care if she's debeaked, that thing scares the shit out of me!"

Say, where is @RichardNixonBot anyway?
-
Hmm..... Good question.... Who was running him?
-
And it's broken again.
-
so'd discourse. we had another flare up of advanced server cooties.
-
Ah. Cooties, that explains it.
-
yeah.... they are, unfortunately a thing.
-
They have been since May.
-
-
-
The cooties are back.
-
I'm getting these cooties all the time. Well, at least once a week. Right now, in fact. They generally fix themselves in a few hours.
FWIW, the relevant generated HTML on the main page is this:
<aside> <h5 class="heading"><a class="clean" href="#"><i class="icon-list"></i>Sidebar WTF</a></h5> <div class="articleList hideNonDesktop"> <ul> </ul> </div> </aside>
So, um, whatever is generating those is failing to include a single link. @apapadimoulis's turf?
-
You know, it's definitely cooties in that there's a second symptom.
When this happens, all the articles on the front page say
0 Comments - Last Comment @ -none-
-- although sometimes it manages to have a timestamp for the non-existing last comment.And if I click the 0 comments link (e.g. this) to the 'comments preview' page, it says there are no comments yet. The

link on that page leads to a 404: http://what.thedailywtf.com/t//0Some sort of connectivity issue with the front page and the forums servers? All that's missing is PHP spewing out mysql_connect() errors except that this isn't PHP and there's no MySQL, thank
