Notification bug on discuss.flarum.org

GreXXL

Hello,

Got a notification today - I think because I follow the "Meta" Tag and a topic was edited to include the Meta-Tag. Reading the notification led to a -1 on the notification count - see image:

Guess it's a bug?

Cheers

GreXXL I feel like we're constantly fixing that bug 😅 I remember we pushed a fix in a previous release, I guess it's back.

clarkwinkelmann yeah... I've also seen -2 😆😅

clarkwinkelmann some are tough ones - and I know since I came from QA. As long as you don't loose faith it's not a lost cause 😆

Here's another one: New notifications aren't showing up for me. I made two threads today (one, two). @askvortsov generously helped me out with both of em, and I could tell by the highlighted bell icon, but the only notifications that show up are from 3 days ago. Even clicking Mark all as read does not update the list.

Other info: I have notifications set up for all events and I was following one of the threads but not the other.

Omnivorous I (or rather, my bot) experienced the same bug today in "Test Posting" - https://discuss.flarum.org/d/26567, so these errors might be related. My theory is that the notifications get instantly removed from the API/database (or don't arrive there, maybe because of a database bug), yet the counter still goes up because Pusher still picks them up.

Edit: It happened again when Omni liked my post

Looks like the queue was down for discuss. I just started it again. It needs to catch up with over 170 pending jobs.

It works now, thanks. I am getting all the notifications I didn't receive before now, haha

@luceos this was actually a discussion on the negative notification count so it's not exactly solved 🙂

Pollux

I often observe a behaviour that looks like a bug, although I can explain it.

For example, if I get two likes on a post, the counter goes up by 2, but only one notification is shown (which makes sense). Now when I click on that notification, the counter drops by 1 and the notification is no longer highlighted. This causes a discrepancy between the counter and the highlighted notifications, which can only be resolved by clicking on the small check mark in the upper right corner.

I would expect the counter to decrease by two when I click on a notification that represents two events.

I guess this is a websocket thing. It registers an event, bumps the count but does not take into consideration duplicates like the drop-down lost does...

streaps

Notifications are weird and innaccurate on discuss.flarum.org. I just had "19" above the bell for one new message written. Maybe caused by an unreliable mobile connection?

streaps discuss uses blomstra realtime, seems that it might still behave incorrectly at times. I'll look into it 👍️
