PM feature is broken

[ScarahStratton]

Messages are going through, but multiply and I am getting a garbled 'null' message. This is on my phone and the desktop site.

Thanks lovely Rebecca, you can have gin too. Despite what others may tell you, tis never too early

I am on my second of the day Pistey

Not resorting to the paper bags yet, then?

Zombie got that yesterday. When she read the 'error' message and saw that it said "succeeded", she went to her outbox. The message was there so she assumed all was well. And, it was as she got a reply about 20 minutes later.

She's coming to see it as another of MN's loveable little foibles.

Yes, just got that garbled 'success' message.

Checking my 'sent' mail on a different PC to see if it is logged as having gone.

Hi, I presume this is happening only intermittently? (i.e. the getting the success message rather than the proper page.) I've just sent a bunch of PMs and they all appeared to go OK. If you are affected, does the error happen every time, or just once in a while? What browser are you on? Are you using mobile or desktop version of the site? Thanks much and sorry for the questions....

every time

chrome
windows 7

More often than not, desktop version on my mac on safari in the study with the lead piping

It's only when clicking from a thread though - from the inbox, they send as normal.

Yup, have only had the problem when clicking on the 'Message poster' link from a thread.

Yes, use the inbox.

Still playing silly buggers, if you go through Message Poster you get

{"succeeded":true,"s2":null,"s1":null,"errorMsg":"","successMsg":"","retCode":0,"s9":null,"obj":null,"s7":null,"s8":null,"s5":null,"s6":null,"s3":null,"s4":null,"competition":"n"}

So folk press send loads of times

Seems OK if you use a new message.
Tech Is there any update on this?

Hi, we think this should be working correctly now. Sorry about the hassle...

Not working here - Chrome on OS 10.7.5

[can't get the staff emoticon]

Groan... We'll have a look.

Strange, it seems to be working OK for me. Hmm. Can you let me know at what point you get the error string thing. Is it on pressing "send?" and only if you start from "message poster" on a thread? That was the original reported problem. You might try clearing your browser cache to force a full reload.

Thanks again by the way

No error reported when using Safari (new session, had to log in again), even if sending from 'Message Poster' on a thread, which is where I was seeing the problem yesterday.

Oh yes, if you click "Message poster" on a page that was already on your screen before we did the fix it will not work correctly. But if you refresh the page and then do message poster it should be OK.

Yay for Tech

Yaaayyyyyy for Tech!!

Don't give him alcohol - that's what did for the PM function last time!
