Board Game Arena

Today clicking on my avatar top right no longer brings up the side bar menu, it just makes the avatar appear larger temporarily.

Anyone else having this issue?

I can't navigate to my tables, to my user settings, to my profile/history, anything.

edit. Ok so this is weird. on log-in it's not there. Play a game, navigate to the in progress screen, menu works. Go back to homepage, menu now works.

Something about homepage load not right maybe?

edit2. Game now finished, right menu not showing in the after game screen. Go to another tab that used to have it, and it shows. Then refresh the page with the issue and it's back.

Is there a call that isn't triggering 100% somewhere?

Funny, I hadn't seen this ever and I'm on all the time, but I just tried it while on this forum thread (both in read only and while creating this comment), and I can reproduce the issue. No menu, it just grows in size and moves slightly to the left.

EDIT: Reload and it's working now. Maybe something didn't fully load. I also see that the growing and slightly left is normal for the avatar as the menu opens. It just looks weird if the menu is absent.

Earlier this week-ish, I'd sometimes see it jump to the left top corner of the screen, but that's been ok for a day or so. But rare and sporadic. Not repeatable. I forget if this was macOS Brave or iPhone Safari or both.

I have also seen (for weeks or months, and sporadically) where tapping on the avatar brings up the global chat instead, the first time clicking on it. Never could reproduce reliably. This one might be only in Safari on iPhone. Can't say that I've seen it recently (last week or so).

thanks glad it's not just me then.

Is this on mobile or desktop? What browser? I've been using it regularly on Chrome on a desktop (including during the period you started this thread) and it has been and still is behaving normally.

I just tried it on Chrome for mobile as well and it's working fine, but I can't be sure it hasn't been behaving oddly on mobile and is now fixed.

My avatar also only gets big or small. I always clicked on this to navigate to other game tables or review finished games. Now I cannot get to that screen. Something is glitching. I hope then can resolve the issue.

Additionally, I can no longer zoom when playing on my iphone. BGA crashes with every game. It used to only be a few like 7 wonders duel, but now it will crash with all of my tables. Have you experienced this?
