Bug when posting a new topic?

When creating a new topic from the start page I can not choose a forum.

Steps:
open tw.forumosa.com and click “new topic” in the top right corner
try to select a forum
blank page is opened

Both in Safari and Chrome (latest versions) on Mac OS X 10.12.6

Anyone else seeing this?

Yes happened to me

Maybe some caching issue? I tried to hard refresh but I still get the same error

3 posts were merged into an existing topic: Advertising on Forumosa

So when you click on the drop down list of subforums, it acts as if it were a link and takes you to a page in blank.

This is happening to me every time I try to create a new topic but I’m not in a subforum, so the said dropdown list is not populated.

We’re looking into this. Thanks for the report

This bug is still happening, any solutions?

I haven’t been able to replicate the problem yet. I will try to assume your user permissions and see if I can see what you are seeing.

Is the problem something like this one:

Does it happen whenever you try to start the New Topic from the front of the website?

It is the exact same problem jesus80 has.

It acts as a link to a blank page with the same background color of forumosa.

“select a forum…” drop down arrow becomes a link to a blank page.

Thank you, both

If you want to send this to the discourse ppl I suggest also sending the Javascript stack trace I captured above

Do you have the same problem using Mobile?

I am searching meta.discourse.org but haven’t found a similar problem yet.
