Help! Can't see my own posts on GD.

[Cyrano]

Have no idea why. Anyone have a clue? My last post was less than 5 minutes ago.

1. Do you have yourself on ignore?

Serious question.

[Cyrano]

3. I don't think so. If so, how do I fix it?

[EYESORE 9001]

5. Go to My Account

then click on Ignore List. If you’re on there, remove yourself from the list.

[Cyrano]

7. Tried that. You can't put yourself on ignore.

[EYESORE 9001]

9. I didn't remember

Seems like it was possible at one time.

2. I went downthread and did not find your post. Perhaps you made an error in posting.

Give it another try.

4. It all exists on My Posts

and I was seeing them until about a half hour ago.

6. Here's a link to your thread

https://democraticunderground.com/100216873015

Can you click on it and get there?

[Cyrano]

10. Yeah. Got there with your link. Couldn't get there without it.

11. It's above my pay grade now

Wish I had some advice, but I’m out of ideas.

12. Looks like I'm in DU limbo. Think a MAGA has hacked me??

13. I'm finding I can't see my own posts here. HELP! Lost in cyberspace.

[Cyrano]

14. Just found that I can see posts if I'm not logged in, but

can't see them when I log in.

15. Do you have any words trashed?

16. nope

18. Then it must be the dreaded DU

17. First step might be to narrow it down a little.

If I were you, I'd ...

- try multiple devices (laptop, phone).

- try multiple browsers (Safari, Chrome, FireFox).

- try multiple WiFi locations (home, work, library)

That should give us some clues about where the problem lives (and doesn't live).

From your descriptions, it does seem to be specific to DU (and not a browser/network issue), but
it might be nice to make sure with the above steps.

Another thing to try:

- Login to DU with a "Private" browser window
- resetting your browser (deleting cookies, site-specific data, et al)

That last step (resetting your browser) will require you to login again to all your web sites. So I try not to do it toooo often.

20. It is possible that you trashed your own thread, I've done that accidentally

Go to My Account, click on Trash Can on the top, second on the right. Scroll down to Trashed Treads at the bottom to see if your thread is there.
