Known Issues/Solutions for Students
Problems Posting in Forums
- Issue: After creating an initial post in the Discussion Forum, some students are seeing a copy of the previous text when attempting to reply or post a new conversation.
- Solution: Clearing the cache resolves this issue. For a full clear of the cache, follow these steps:
- Log out of Sakai
- Clear your browser's cache - see instructions for clearing the cache in most any browser
- Close out of the browser completely
- Re-open the browser, log in again, and things should work fine!
Note: This should solve the problem so that it does not recur. However, if you use another browser or computer, you may have to clear the cache there as well. If the problem occurs more than a few times on the same computer or browser, please contact sakaihelp@durhamtech.edu.
