Unable to nominate post for promotion

+2
−0

When trying to nominate this post for promotion, it didn't work. Clicking the nomination button did nothing.

Checking the console, I believe this is likely a client script error rather than a server error, as the following TypeError appears on the page for that post but not on other posts (where I'm able to successfully nominate)

errors

Curiously, the 404 errors (which are normal for this community, as those resources really don't exist) only have the ERR_ABORTED on the affected page, other pages just give a "Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()" error.

The issue doesn't seem to be because the affected post is an article; I've been able to nominate other articles (such as this one) before.

iirc, the 404s are just trying to load custom styles or functionalities for each individual community, which most communities don't have right now, so it is a normal error.

DIdn't work for me either. I wonder if we missed something in the work to generalize posts and the nomination code is looking for a question specifically. (That's an article.) Granted, if you do nominate an article it's still going to say "can you answer this question?", which isn't ideal (and there's an open issue for customizing that text per category).

@MonicaCellio I've successfully nominated other articles, so that's not the problem

Thanks for that additional information. Do you remember one and if so could you link to it?

@MonicaCellio I've updated the post
