I can't install the older version of Chrome on my iOS device, but I've installed the latest (83 something) and I will monitor the Tweets throughout the day to see if they stop loading correctly.
It's been 24 hours and with clean cache, I can't reproduce this to the point where it uses the old version of the Twitter embeds. If somehow the cache isn't getting cleared it could be using the older version which doesn't properly resize. I'll keep monitoring. The only other thing I could think of is if it's on a really slow internet connection.
I’ve only had to reset it on my end two more times since yesterday so maybe it was an isolated issue that’s now resolved? I’m not sure. If it continues to happen regularly, I’ll ping you, thanks!
It's interesting how it just seems to be a character limit where the issue starts occurring I feel like as a web developer I should know more about this, but I've never worked with Twitter embeds before so I'm not totally sure how they work with the web framework you're using. No idea if that helps you in any way
Ok, rolling out my first guess of what the issue may be. I still can't reproduce this here, so I am going to have to rely on other people telling me if it gets fixed or not. Let me know in 3-5 minutes if Tweets start loading correctly. @RyanPm40 @Fletchaaa
Heh I just cleared my cache right after my post but I'll be sure to keep an eye out if it comes back! Thanks for your hard work!
Same for me as well, though I'm on chromeos now. could check windows after 5 but imagine its the same
Another thing I'm not sure of how helpful it is, but it looks like the issue could be that it never resizes the default placeholder for the embedded tweet once it has loaded up
You've done web dev, so I'm hoping maybe you can help me ... do you have access to the web inspector on a device this is happening? What I'd need to see is what's the iframe source for the tweet, it should be something like this: <iframe id="XXXXXX" allowfullscreen="" scrolling="no" allowtransparency="true" src="https://forum.chorus.fm/bts/twitter.min-v1.html#1266055362051862528" class="twitter-tweet" style="height: 481px;"></iframe> What I am curious is if you're seeing twitter.min-v1.html as the src? And what the height is being added to the style. Going to see if I can reproduce the error on virtual machine.
I can't get it to happen on any virtual machine OS, on any device, on any browser. Going to try older browser next. And you're all seeing it happen no matter what? And then a clear cache fixes it but only for a few minutes and then it comes back?
Np! I see it in the source code, but it's strangely commented out, and I don't see a height applied to it
It only happens like 1 to 5 times a day for me, sometimes not at all, though it's been more consistently every day over the last week or so. Not necessarily every few minutes
Yeah, it would be in the source code, because it's being "lazy" loaded in when it scrolls into view. So I'd need the live version of it ... it's ok, it's hard to grab from a phone no matter what. Gimme a few minutes to play with a few other things.
Makes sense! Ok cool, I'm rarely on a computer when I'm off work for the day, but I can try and remember to pull up chrome on my MacBook later and see if I can reproduce it there
