Glitch Solutions:


(please don't comment until I'm done typing)

Answer 1

Can't See SmartScore- Most of the time the only thing that solves this is waiting. It doesn't really affect you. You just can't see people's smartscore or your own. So continue to help people and post your questions. :)
Person's information doesn't load and fan button doesn't work. Can't write a testimony. These usually go along with the not seeing the smartscore. This this is really annoying, but I haven't found a solution yet. Just be patient. :)

Can't see the post button-
type whatever you want. Then, when your done cut everything out of the box and hit the delete button a couple times. Then, paste the content you cut out and quickly click the post button before it disappears again. You can also refresh the page. works for me 100% of the time
THE BEST SOLUTION: To post, click tab + enter key on your keyboard. Thanks to @confluxepic for this.

openstudy is slow and won't load. Try refreshing. If not, then log out and log back in. If not, then close your browser, clear your cache and cookies, and try again. This works most of the time. If not, then waiting is your best option. Annoying I know, but that's OpenStudy for you.

black diamonds with question marks - refresh the page. works 95% of the time. Otherwise, ask the person to retype their question. Most of the time this occurs when someone copied an pasted special symbols.

Oh, and also a lot of the times, you can't see any notifications unless you refresh. Not much you can do about that except wait for it to fix itself. Just keep refreshing the page to get new notifications

If I missed any, feel free to let me know and I'll post the solution.

Answer 2

most of the times i cant see whoever is looking at your question, terrible lag in chat ;-;

Answer 3

but the thing is when post button doesn't work what we suppose to do
a lot of the time when i'm done writing on the draw and insert it
then post button doesn't let me to post
and i lost everything which i wrote on draw
and then i have to refresh the page and write that again :( :( :( :( :"(

Answer 4

This doesn't actually fix the problem, it's just a workaround.
If everything is orange, the site doesn't load userById objects from the server, therefore the site cannot recognize which smartscore you have and will thus user the default color (orange). This also includes any updates like notifications, messages. Only way to fix this is to probably reboot the site.

Haven't found any real glitches glitches other than this one besides pieces of the page being cut of like what happens with the post button sometimes. tab enter is a good workaround like you mentioned.

Answer 5

I been using Tab+Enter for everything on here pretty much since I started :) Sending messages, posting comments, sending reports, sending a testimonial, etc, but yeah all of these solutions can be really helpful to other users!

Answer 6

Tab+Enter works for a lot of things on OpenStudy. I used it when I was giving someone a long testimonial, but the box went off the page, so I tried Tab+Enter and it worked. Ever since I used Tab+Enter for everything
