Post without title in marketplace section
« on: December 05, 2022, 02:23:14 pm »
Something borked in the marketplace:
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/buysellwanted/

There is a post without title by KG7AMV
You cannot interact with the post in any way.
If you look at their posting history, the post is actually visible at the top:
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/profile/?area=showposts;u=100527

Again without title, and no way of interacting with the post. The reply and quote buttons are simply missing.
I assume admin intervention is required to unbork this :D

It seems the parens might be causing the problems.
Your ad blocker is removing the link because the URL contains the string "offers".  Link in quote converted to plain text in code tags and fixed, so those using adblockers using the same 'naughty' word list can see it.
We had a similar issue last month:

Well, there is a first for everything... I was not even aware that the company mandated uBlock is turned on here, since i still saw the Keysight Banner.
When i turn it off, the post tile is indeed visible.

In principle, I don't like URL keyword filtering to be applied to forums and wikis where false matches can make it difficult to reach legitimate content. 

As I said in the topic last month:
I wonder why the subject line for this thread is blank. (Makes it difficult to click to open it.)

When adding a comment, there is a subject line defined. Very strange.

Your ad blocker is removing the link because the URL contains the string "offers".
If using uBlock Origin, disabling cosmetic filtering on eevblog.com resolves the vanishing post title issue.

There's probably a better way to disable just the offending filter just for EEVblog,  but I haven't figured that out yet.
