Liking posts clickthrough

[levi]

When liking posts (at least those of advanced users and newbies, not sure I've liked a mod on the new boards yet), I have to click 'yes' on a 'do you really want to like this post?' clickthrough page.

While testing these boards before release that only applied to certain categories of users, and that was considered a mistake. I assumed the fix was to make likes take only one click for all users, but it seems the guard has been used on almost everyone's account instead.

Hrm... as a moderator and you're an advanced member, it seems that I can just like your post and not get a yes or no prompt. odd behavio(u)r indeed.

 

[Klumpen]

I don't get any prompts either.

I didn't even know such thing exists, I'll check if I find some permission settings here.

 

[levi]

Hmm, just checked with Trashy's post (as a mod) there, and I need to click through there too. Maybe it's just me?

 

[EvilDragon]

Hmm, I just checked, it doesn't seem there's a setting for this.
Can you post a screenshot of that message?

Could it be some setting / Addon of your browser?

Just liked and unliked this post of yours, no prompts here.

It does seem indeed that you're special.

I haven't seen it since the upgrade but I was getting that message on the Test boards. I thought it was because I was in the "Supporter" group on the old boards which resulted in me being moderated there.

It could be a setting; I'm not presently running with Javascript enabled, but I don't think I'm running any addons that could impact this. It does appear to be a page generated by your server, judging by the navigation bar at the top of it.

Found info on the XenForo site:

This happens when users click the Like control before the page has finished loading and the JavaScript has fully initialised.

So, if you're running with Javascript disabled, then that happens.

 

[levi]

Okay, that's fine then. Thanks for looking into this.

Yeah, there's no way to tell the board to effect an action without loading a new page if you don't have javascript, need to send a post request somehow

I'm actually surprised they accommodate for javascript-less users still.

It's not IPB we're using
