Problem when re-editing a post: it disappears!

[Member mikey777]

I submitted a post this morning at around 11 a.m. (UK time) in the “Software” section of the
forum for the following thread: “antix19-core: failure of desktop to boot …”

Following submission it appeared in the forum – no problems.
But then few minutes later I decided to re-edit it, but following
re-submission it seems to have disappeared …

Can someone explain what has happened – many thanks.

I submitted something yesterday on respins (adding s6/66 to antix19-runit) and after finishing it said it went for moderation. I thought maybe that particular thread requires moderation before something is published. Then it appeared today and I went correcting a few mistakes I made, as soon I hit submit it vanished again.
Maybe Lennard bought wordpress and is playing with us (with his xmas bonus from IBM) 🙂

A few months ago, one of my posts disappeared after I attempted to edit it. I have edited several posts, since then, without a problem.

I’m not sure, but I think posts may vanish if you uncheck the “Keep a log of this edit” box.

The most recent “sets off spamfilter alarm bells” quirk I discovered:

something / otherthing
and / or

apparently, if an edited post contains a substring matching “word-forwardslash-word”
it will be rejected (held for moderation?) by the WordFence spamfilter mechanism.

Just to report back – some good news !
The ‘missing post’ eventually appeared in the forum (after a few hours) so was not lost.

Maybe got stuck in internet traffic congestion at a peak time …

Many thanks for the tip Koo – for future posts, I’m going to make sure the edit box is ticked 🙂
