What did you expect to happen? I expected the page to load normally.

 

Screenshots of the issue, if applicable: Sorry I have none, but I saved the webpage. It's attached.

Please don't do this, it's extremely unhelpful. Even just

is vastly more helpful than just dumping a whole exported webpage (which, given you exported it, you could easily have opened the exported file and taken a screenshot...) and saying "it's weird", but that's still not great. There's a reason the template exists.

 

A much better post would have been

What happened? When viewing page 4 of the comments in this status update, the reply box appears below the page selector

What did you expect to happen? The page selector should be below the reply box, for consistency with (some reason why you think it should actually be this way)

 

However, I'm totally guessing at the "What did you expect to happen" section, because the page as exported looks totally fine to me - everywhere where there are paginated comments/replies/posts, the reply box is after the pagination, eg for topics it looks like this:

Is there another issue here that I'm missing, or some reason why this should be different?

Steps to reproduce/what were you doing before it happened? No idea. I refreshed the page to show the newest results and this happened.

That's normal, it's a Status Update which is different from regular posts.

That's assuming this is what it looks like:

"A high ideal missed by a little, is far better than low ideal that is achievable, yet far less effective"

 

If you think I'm wrong, correct me. If I've offended you in some way tell me what it is and how I can correct it. I want to learn, and along the way one can make mistakes; Being wrong helps you learn what's right.

I believe it's applying the same logic that also applies to multi-page threads. Yours just happened to be the only one on the new page. So, I think this is normal behaviour (Though I have to say, I haven't seen many multi-page status updates)
