It worked :)

Isn't houzz/gardenweb grand!

Clear history and cache, yes. And/or try a different browser.

It used to be that the "comment" section was at the bottom of the thread. With this "new and improved" version - the threads that have the newest responses at the top - if you scroll to the bottom of the thread to comment, the comment section is missing. If you go to the top of the thread (the op) and hit "comment" it will take you to the comment section, which will be located at the TOP of the thread, just below the OP, or maybe below that annoying "best" answer that hovers at the top of the thread.

Thank you, Olychick! I've been wrestling with this problem for weeks. Occasionally found work arounds but nothing permanent. Your directions work! 😊

I'm at Gardenweb, too, woodrose but when I would attempt to "comment" at the bottom of a thread, I could type [PC here] until I was blue in my face. Sometimes it would appear in the comment space. Other times it would appear a line at a time denying me visualizing what I was typing. And other times...I wasn't allowed to type in the comment space at all. Currently, as I type this, it's appearing one line of typing at a time. I cannot see what I've typed above. It's been most frustrating and annoying. Now I shall work whatever work around magic I can muster to "submit" my reply. From now on...I'll gratefully follow Olychick's directions and hope that they continue to work.

Do you have this problem on other websites besides gardenweb ? I'm on a PC, too, and when I have that problem it's usually my keyboard. When it happens, I unplug the keyboard from my PC for a few seconds, plug it back in and problem solved.

No, woodrose, the only place I have this problem is here at the KT. I don't "do" social media in any format beyond this board so I can't contribute whether it's an equipment problem or a website issue. Though, I rather doubt that it's my keyboard. I have no other issues involving my keyboard.

I'm a Firefox user. Perhaps that's related to the problem. But, again, I doubt it. I have a very strong and encompassing security program on my PC that has a mild nervous breakdown on a fairly regular basis with this KT site. On average...lately...it's been blocking 3 to 5 threats a week that attempt to invade my system while I'm here. When I have the time, I usually do a little research to see where the attempts are originating and so far...without exception...they're coming from the East. The unsettling part of these attempts is that they only happen here.

Thank you for all your kind input, woodrose. Olychick's suggestion seems to have overridden the problem so I'll muddle along until the next issue arises. 😊

Well I can finally post on SOME posts

It is not entirely a website issue because it does not affect everyone. I access from my laptop but only via GardenWeb, never Houzz, and I have no problems with posting, commenting, adding photos or accessing posts in the proper chronological order. Everything is as it should be :-)

But I believe the issues some are having may be a combination of glitches with the website and how you access it, the device you are using and the browser.

Interestingly, the internal security system I have with Windows 10, which does daily scans, consistently reports no security threats at all......not here and not anywhere else.

I think how you get here makes all the difference but it appears to be a combination of factors :-)

I noticed today that when I was on a thread and the responses were all bass-asswards, the kind with the "best answer" choice, there is now a link at the very bottom of the page that says "post comment," which takes you UP to the comment section that is now on the top. Could they make this any more complicated? Although it is less confusing now to find the place to comment.
