If anyone experiencing this could share a screenshot that includes the browser console, that would be helpful.

Description of problem (please provide a set of steps we can use to replicate the issue, and make as many as you need.): Project pages not fully loading, not displaying properly, can’t reach bottom / page numbers area

Step 1: In a project, click on “View All”

Step 2: Scroll through and try to reach the bottom of the page. By row 13, the photos start to have “Unknown” below them, but above the species name (showing that they are not in fact unknown).

Step 3: I’m able to scroll as far as row 24, before I see the two arrows circling each other (thinking…) - the page won’t load/never loads. I’ve tried to look at multiple different projects and the same happens with all. When it finally stops, there are no numbers at the bottom
(thanks in advance…)

Yes, it seems like the same bug so I moved the above two posts here.

Thank you. I cleared the cache this morning and so far, things are working normally. Our internet has been spotty the last few weeks, so maybe it’s related to that. If it happens again I’ll

thanks again

Description of problem I am assuming this is some sort of display bug. I have been scrolling through the species in the explore tab today trying to find a match for an observation I made earlier today.

Step 1: Go to explore and filter for a set that will return a large number of observations. The two that caused the bug to occur were all dicots in Texas, and subfamily apoidea in Texas.

Step 2: I clicked to look at species rather than individual observations. Then scrolled through the list until I was some ways down. For example in the screen shot I provided I was far enough down the list that the species only had single observations.

Step 3: Leave the tab and go to a different tab then return to the inaturalist tab. The species names would now be displaying in odd ways as you can see in the screenshot. If I scrolled further to bring up more species they would also display incorrectly.

This happened multiple times today, and I was able to recreate the bug using the above steps.

it still happens on the inaturalist.org website when i scroll down

Browser, if a website issue: Chrome

Screenshots of what you are seeing:

You can see above how in the first row observations are shown normally, but in the second row they have that weird look after the website loaded them.

Description of problem: After a while loading observations, it shows all the things at once. Another thing would be that ‘unknown‘ above the species, even though observations are either IDed or RG.

Step 1: Open any observations list (or look at your own, like I did) in the website;

Step 2: Scroll;

Step 3: After a while loading (I scrolled a few pages) your observations it should look like I saw it.


Anyone else experiencing this as well?
