System logs me out when I submit a topic

[Kelli321]

I’m just wondering if there is any way that my introduction could have been saved by the system. As soon as I submitted it I was informed I couldn’t submit as a guest though I could see my username in the forum, and if I logged in i would be able to. After re-logging in again it was all gone. And chance?

Hello Kelli321,

Welcome to TransgenderPulse.  The reason you are not seeing your post is because new members must make 5 posts that have to be moderator approved before becoming visible.  After that, they are seen instantly.

So is it being reviewed or is it gone since the system logged me out when I submitted? Just wondering if I have to do it again is all? Thanks

[MaryEllen]

Yes, it is being reviewed for moderator approval. As soon as a moderator sees and reads it, it is approved provided no community rules were broken.  All new members have to have posts approved before the post is unhidden. We do this to insure that no one joins for nefarious reasons. After you've made 5 posts they will appear instantly.

Thank you for letting me know, I was hoping not to have to write it again, I am grateful☺️

Hi @Kelli321, 

when you say you were logged out it does seem, sadly, that your intro was lost. Have you rejected cookies in your browser? 
was your intro made using your phone/tablet or a computer?

Hi, I’m using an iPhone and I don’t remember  getting  prompted for cookies. I’ll redo the introduction but I’ll save it first just in case. I’m sure the issue is with my phone now that you mention it, the latest update has been a problem for a few people I’ve heard. Thank you for looking into this though, I appreciate it.

Hi @Kelli321 I don't have an iPhone or access to one so I can't confirm if it is that or not, and I'm not 100% how much of the system copies across to the mobile options, so you may not get offered cookies.

 

Yes, good idea to create your intro and save it, just in case. Quick question, did you have the same issues when posting this topic as well, or were you able to post your replies okay?

[Kelli321]

The replies seem to work and I’m gonna post the intro again, crossing my fingers.

I just replied to your intro, so it worked just fine this time.  As Petra Jane recommended, I type out many of my posts on my Word program, and then copy and paste them in here.  You are up to 6 posts now and off of review, so you should not have problems waiting for them to be approved.
