Email Link Login Bug and Twitter Link Bug

itsfree on 22/10/2019 - 10:30

I've noticed a couple of bugs this week:

  1. When I click a link from an email notification (e.g. New Comment), it displays the webpage as a logged-out user, even though I am logged-in if visiting the website directly. This is happening on Android 10 in Chrome.

  2. Opening an OzBargain deal from one of OzBargain's Twitter accounts results in an oddly-rendered page with missing functionality.

    Opening an OzBargain deal from one of OzBargain's Twitter accounts results in an oddly-rendered page

    We've pushed out AMP version of deal pages this morning, and it looks like Twitter would send users to that if the link is opened on mobile. AMP version of the page is a stripped down version of the mobile site without functionalities of logged in users, and was originally designed for Google Discover.

    It does not appear to be a way to tell Twitter to send to the non-AMP version of the page. I'll investigate on how we can work around that.

    Edit: by the way you can click on the title of the post of the AMP version of the page, and it will bring you back to the non-AMP version.

      Thanks for the follow up, Scotty. I'm still experiencing the email link login issue though – are you able to reproduce it?

        Not really. I return to OzBargain via email a dozen times a day and haven't been logged out yet. I don't have Android 10 though.

          It's been happening for me for about a week, but I have been on Android 10 for a while, so not sure what's going on.
