RE: [busy.org] Newly created post does not appear in the "discussion"

in #utopian-io • 7 years ago

Hi @mightypanda, this behavior is not a bug, its just the way it has been designed. There is no significant proof to show that the developer originally intended for new posts on creation to load with the previous discussion list. Refreshing the discussion panel adds newly created posts to the discussion list.

There is a big difference between (1) what you expect to see in a project and (2) features malfunctioning or not working as the developer intended or implemented it to, and hence classified as bugs. You may expect from a feature "A" some certain traits cause you have seen something similar elsewhere, while the developer implements it to behave in a way "B" that is unique to him, cause its the way he wants it to run.

You could however suggest this as an enhancement to the discussion panel - so that, instead of needing a refresh, it automatically adds a newly created post to the existing list.

    Thanks for your reply. There are few evidence that system is supposed to work this way:

    1. This is a Single page application. Which means, site only refreshes the part of the page which is updated. By definition if you have to refresh the whole page to see updated data, then application is broken.
    2. If you navigate to different parts of the page, you can see latest data under feed and profile, but discussion is not getting updated. I saw a error in console while retrieving data and that could be the reason.

    P.S. I have 11+ yrs of experience developing enterprise applications. There is no way this is not a bug.
