New comments posted roughly after 2026-05-30 are not showing up. This includes new comments on older stories. Older comments on those stories are showing up, but anything new is not. I'm not seeing any comments on any new stories posted in the last few days.

I've tried on different computers and different browsers. It doesn't matter if I'm logged in or not. If I make a new comment, I see that comment, but it goes away if I refresh the page.

Anyone else seeing this?
 
Sort by oldest and newest produce different results. The latest comment I've made (submitted 30 May, published 1 June) is only showing up in sort by newest. But that doesn't surprise me: these discrepancies have been around for a while. I'd expect the lists to catch up in a day or two.

But on another story, one that was published on 27 May is still not showing up on sort by oldest - there are four more on sort by newest, one of them being 8 days old. That's much longer than the usual 'catching up', I think.

edit: link to story
edit 2: get link right

Yes, the same happens on my end. I have tried it on different devices and browsers. The most recent posts on Comments Hub are 7 days ago.
 
So far this this does not occur with poetry comments. It appears to be just the story side.

Another bug? A side effect with fixing the duplicate/triplicate notification issue? @Manu

My newest poem went live yesterday and this morning I got notified of a new comment a few hours later

I see no more new comments anywhere for over a week, at least under Stories.
Anyone knows what is going on with the site?
 
With that story I (eventually correctly) linked to above, now the ones from days ago are all showing, and oldest first has two new ones, dated a few hours ago! So comments are still coming through, but the system is making horrible coughing and clanking noises as it gets them there.
 
I wouldn't be surprised if this house of cards come falling down within this year. Just like a roof, if you ignore aged and damaged shingles and water damage, eventually the entire roof caves in. Planned maintenance every 3 years only makes things worse.
 
I'm also talking about the Comments Hub that brings up all recent Comments in all sections, not just Comments under each story.

Are you referring to just comments on stories or comments on other categories as well such as poetry and audio? I have gotten comments on my poetry both yesterday and today.


If you are referring to comments on your stories only, perhaps it is part of a bigger story side bug
 
I've only looked at Stories.

From Literotica homepage, if you click on the book icon, then scroll down to Comments, you get Newest Stories Comments. That used to be updated every hour or so at the latest. Now the latest Comments date back to 9 days ago. I also can't see any Comments under recently published stories.

Hasn't happened before. Very weird and I wonder if others have experienced the same. The OP apparently has, but no one else has confirmed.

Sounds like a bug @Manu

Manu is the only person that can look into it from the back end. Could be related to the recent maintenance.
 
@MellowJoe

Are you referring to comments on a story you published or comments at the bottom of various stories you read?
More recent stories show no Comments for me.

Also nothing updates on the Comments Hub - the most recent comments date back to 9 days ago. Is this what you see on your end too?
 
On individual stories, one has appeared today on my latest, and the two I most recently posted have also appeared. They were all submitted yesterday. So it's looking normal, just going on my small personal experience, not even a long delay.
