Asked by:
names of poster are no longer displayed at the right bottom of the posting

General discussion
-
if you're not logged in than the names of the poster are no longer displayed. Only Moderator, Answerer are displayed as a place holder.
Is there a new way of Forum issues starting crowling through the forum or is this a SW update with the intent to suppress the names if not logged in ?

Hi,
It looks like this was a temporary issue, I'm able to see names and avatars again now.

This may have just been resolved. Besides avatars not showing, many buttons/functions did not work for me, like Quick Access, reply, propose answer. I emailed fissues at Microsoft dot com, but just now things seem to work again.

Yep, that's what it looks like to me as well.
I'd say everything started working again maybe about 5 minutes ago.

after posting and restarting the browser the names did appear again.
unfortunately over the last few month similar effects showed up and the forum often than became unusable for a few hours.
let's hope that this is not the case now and the forum remains usable.

My guess is that everyone and all browsers were affected by this last hiccup, but I'm Win7 using Pale Moon. I also tried in IE11 with no luck.
