Anyone else having problems with comment count button at the top of news articles.


Recommended Posts

That button at the top of news articles which tells you how many comments there are and when clicked takes you to them, no longer works for me. It does nothing when I click it. Anyone else having the issue? I've had this issue on every one of my computers.

 

Thanks

I just tried it and it's working for me on Firefox. Have you got any add-ons enabled, like NoScript or uBlock?

Just tried it on Firefox 88.0.1 with no addons installed. This laptop also has no AV other than windows security. Does nothing when I click on it. Doesn't work in edge either. Doesn't work at my house or my girlfriends house. On my desktop workstation at home or the laptop here.

I'm not sure what to suggest, but I've tried it on three different articles and it jumps down to the comments each time. I admit that it's strange that it's happening on all your computers though. What happens if you use your phone, connected to your phone network and not the Wifi?

Great idea!! ..........aaaaand it doesn't work on my iPhone SE 2020 on cellular either.

Anything in the browsers developer tools console being reported loading the site or clicking on the link?

 

There just simple hrefs no special sauce, so I can't see why it wouldn't work.  Right-click open in new tab work?

Another great idea! Lemme check

Didn't see much in developer tools, but one think I did notice, is that if I scrolled down the page a tad, and still had that button visible, when clicking it , it would take me back to the very top of the page... so that's something i guess.

    • Shocker! It would be crazy to be ready to introduce a "fold" phone but have no plans happening for a followup model.
    • XBOX is at the end of its generational life cycle and wasn't selling much anyway. They need to figure out the pricing for XBOX Helios. However, I'm not buying the DRAM shortage with AI preferring HBM. I think it's industry gouging.
    • Amazon Prime Day 2026: Best Dolby soundbar deals from Sony, Samsung, JBL, Polk, and more by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered the JBL BAR 800 which is a 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos/Vision soundbar. The unit is on sale for its lowest ever price of just $800 making it a solid offer. However, there are many more options to choose from and in this article, we have made a compilation of the best deals including from Sony, Polk, Yamaha, Denon, Samsung and more. Sony's BAR models are currently at their lowest prices which makes them solid offerings. The company's BRAVIA Theatre Bar lineup is designed to suit different home cinema needs. The Bar 5 is an entry-level 3.1-channel soundbar with a wireless subwoofer, supporting Dolby Atmos®, DTS:X, S-Force PRO Front Surround, and Vertical Surround Engine for immersive audio with clear dialogue. The Bar 6 upgrades to a 3.1.2-channel configuration by adding dedicated up-firing speakers for more convincing overhead Atmos effects while retaining the wireless subwoofer. At the premium end, the Bar 7, Bar 8, and flagship Bar 9 are single-soundbar solutions featuring Sony’s 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology, which creates phantom speakers for a wider surround field. Bar 7 includes nine speaker units, Bar 8 increases this to eleven, and Bar 9 offers thirteen speaker driver units promising the most expansive soundstage and acoustic performance. All models should integrate seamlessly with compatible BRAVIA TVs and support the BRAVIA Connect app for setup and control.
