Seems like there has been a big update since yesterday - the forum appears to be running on Inertia now. AFAIK it was not on Inertia previous to today???

Laracast bug? All threads seemed to have their post times changed.
I noticed laracast was recently updated. Is there a bug that caused all threads posted/replied times to be changed? Possible mass update to data and not disabling timestamp touches? XD

There are more problems.

@tippin Fixed. Thanks, we just pushed a big update an hour ago. Fixing all of these little issues as they come in.
@michaloravec That's not helpful. Can you tell me more?

@jeffreyway Don't know if it's intended or not, but the "Top 10 Leaderboard" title below the user names is gone.
Oh...and I get a 500 when trying to visit my profile, any other profiles are fine.

@jeffreyway Appreciate it! Site still works great, and love not having full page reloads now. Since you seem to be investigating issues, one other thing I just noticed was the notification for your mention of me. It did not show when I clicked around, but only after a full page reload. My XP bar on my profile also seems to be stuck at full.
I am very happy that links, especially when previewing markdown in reply box, open in new window now. That will save the many times I checked my link was working...only to open the page in the window and loose everything 😭
Keep up the great work 👍

@meracle Fix your twitter and github links. Pass only username and not full link there. dawidow_it for twitter and dawidow for github in your case.
@jeffreyway It would be good idea to parse username from those links, because a lot of people have this problem. They always pass a full link.

@jeffreyway It looks like some css classes are missing or inline styles are gone.
On leaderboard page zero best replies, zero experience (probably just caching problem).
https://laracasts.com/discuss/leaderboard
Badges on the profile are too small, and in the opposite way like before, maybe it was a wanted change.
Invoices page doesn't work
https://laracasts.com/settings/subscription/invoices
Left menu here on forum is smaller (it was there inline css height: 41px before).
Some texts I would say are smaller.
Full list of videos with filters is not visible anymore

Journeys are gone (it was good point where to start for beginners in my opinion)

Thanks, everyone. Keep them coming. I'd like to iron out all the kinks today. I've already pushed fixes for most of the issues above.
I'll do a full write-up later this week, but even if you don't instantly notice it, this was a significant backend update. The deploy included an upgrade from PHP 7 to PHP 8, from Vue 2 to Vue 3, and from server-side rendering to an SPA (using Inertia). So almost a complete rewrite of the front-end.

Not sure if it's a bug but all default avatars are the same grey Larry Laracore rather than the ~36 in-color ones previously.
Also, when I click the write a reply button at the bottom of the thread, the dialog box says "Reply to POST" on the top. I honestly can't remember if it always said this is or if it used to use the title of the post itself.
Replying to an individual by clicking reply within a comment gives the correct individual's name so maybe I'm just misremembering.

One other thing I noticed, not sure if a bug or not. When viewing an individual post from the forum, the document has no title, so it just shows the full URL as the title. Also when switching filters on the main forum list, the title always says "Laracast Forum" instead of my best answers, following, etc.
Level 59
Thanks. Fixed.

@jeffreyway Here are multiple bugs or unintended behaviors that I found:
- When clicking on your avatar, it opens the sidebar and while opened, it adds unwanted
padding-rightto the body. In addition, when you do the same while inside your profile, it makes the navbar disappear. - When clicking your avatar within the sidebar, it redirects to your profile, but doesn't close the sidebar.
- If you navigate out of your profile by clicking on a navigation item in the navbar, and then hover your experience before you get redirected, the experience popover is shown in the target page.
- There has been either some undesired (auto-attributed) best answers OR they have genuinely been assigned by the OP, but didn't register XP or increment the best answers count. Reference: https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/vue/what-is-patch-in-vue-dev-tools?page=1&replyId=716661. I had 106 best answers before this one, and I'm still at 106.
- When an answer is highlighted, and you scroll down (so the top of the answer is hidden) its border can be seen wrapping the
#reply-scrubberdiv.
Also, I don't know if it is intentional, but both loading indicators are red instead of blue.

I haven't seen this mentioned yet in the thread- when I click on the heart to like a comment, the heart disappears and reply slides over to take its place. When I refresh the page the comment is still not liked. May be a side effect of other changes, since I specifically remember liking comments yesterday after I made my previous post on this thread.
Also, when a video is complete it seems to redirect to the one you just completed, and then redirect to the next video (so you see the 3 second countdown timer the first time, it redirects to the end of the video you just watched, then you see the 3 second countdown timer again, then it correctly redirects). This happens to me regardless of whether I wait for the countdown to the next video or click next video.
Edit: Now I'm finding that the hearts are working, leaving it in here in case it's an intermittent issue. Using chrome if that makes a difference.

Yes, this issue happened to only the last episode of each series, it will not automatically mark as completed even we had completed the last episode and click on the button on the "Lesson Complete" modal.
I tested few series (Laravel Queue Mastery, Build a Voting App and Laravel 8 From Scratch), when refresh the page, the playback stopped at the last few seconds before complete. The workaround is manually click on "Mark as Complete" button.

@jeffreyway Any updates on the profile XP bar? Mine still shows a full bar, and I do not see how "far" until my next level up.
One other side note, more of a request. Would it be possible to find the screen real-estate for the jump to "Newest Reply" button on mobile? For some threads like this, being able to jump to most recent is very helpful. I have tried desktop mode, but no orientation will ever display that option for me on mobile.

Yeah I'm pushing a fix for the XP bar issue right now.
