Maybe related... I did notice an increase in Spam content in the past few weeks.

you think it might be spam that has broke the activity feed?

Hello.

The time line of my profile is not updated anymore when I make a comment or when I start a new topic. That's normal due to this update in the site or something? I mean ... the time line in my profile is stuck in a post I made 2 months ago. WTF?

Activity & profile feed should be fixed soon. I've finally found the issue (or so I think, anway.), but it'll take time to fix. Results may be spotty for a day or two while the database is rebuilt, both for feeds and for search results.

Okay. Because now there is nothing in the feed or time line in my profile. Everything disappeared.

True, but when I do it I get this:

 

The search index is currently processing. Activity stream results may not be complete.

 

Which, I suppose, is another way to say (as Ashal did):

I don't want to get too far ahead of myself but thank you @Ashal for fixing the activity so that only the latest posts in a thread show as I, and others, have requested.

[DeepBlueFrog]

Thanks for fixing the feed! Working again here as well.

[DeepBlueFrog]

And you even fixed multiple copies of the same thread in feeds apparently!

Apparently the problem is solved. Yay!

Possibly unrelated to recent changes, but I'm suddenly getting 404s from Clownflare whenever I post anything. I can refresh the site immediately and it comes right back, so it seems unlikely that LL was down as is being claimed.

 

A minor inconvenience, but maybe the report is helpful.

 

[edit]

 

Yep, every time. This post too.

I'm getting a similar thing.

When I hit submit it thinks about it for a long while. If I go to to the top of the page and click on, say, Home or Downloads, then it bounces me back to the botom of the page and post has arrived in the thread.

If I leave it thinking long enough then I get a 504(?) Gateway timeout page. If I then hit the browsers back page arrow I get back to thread where my post has arrived.

Been like this for a few days now.

Have the same thing happening, though not always

Submitting a new post often takes (significantly) longer than usual (its especially bad today apparently). Sometimes I get timed out (Error 504), refreshing the page gets me back without any delay however

 

E/ Its the same for editing, funny enough I can apparently refresh the page shortly after submitting a post and the post saves anyway

[JayDrizzle]

I am having the double post issue as well.

[Nymra]

I noticed that whenever I try to answer to a thread, the site will timeout and the connection will fail.

 

When I reload, I see that the post is submitted, but often the posts is double, then. 

Dunno if its a LL problem or from my side. I do not have any issues with other pages. hmm

@Nymra

 

I have found that after hitting submit reply if you refresh the page if the page is slow the post will be posted after the page is refreshed and will bypass the timeout error or whichever error it is as I have done it quite a few times already.

this works thx.
while it is ofc not ideal

Well, I know it's not just me then - getting the long wait and time outs. Refreshing shortly after posting does 'speed things up', but I'm saying something just to confirm for others as above:

[Abandoner]

Do we have any ETA on when things will be back to normal? On top of all the issues others have listed, I can't start a download page, my attachments are listed in random places and editing a post will bring up the last poster's attachments.

Search function currently is broken and posting is basically hit or miss.....Get multiple posts of same thing, 504 gateway errors.

Currently posting in this community has been a hassle lately. While my comment stays on loading, I have to smash the F5 key to refresh the page and it will show that I posted.

Try hitting F5 once and waiting a second or two until the page actually refreshes. That seems to work for the rest of us.

The content from the public feed on my profile has disappeared and I didn't get an announcement about the last contribution to it.

Second that. The search function brings up zero results, no matter what keyword you enter. Even terms I used countless time in the past and that brought up hundred and more results come up with nothing. Just the message that there is nothing that matches my keywords.

I've heard this from a ton of people
