0 limpid Posted April 6, 2020 Administrator Share Posted April 6, 2020 @Tomaszk always start a new thread for a new problem. Could you link to those rather than screenshots? There is a link to every post in the top right of each post (the share icon). It'll take hours to find them from a screenshot. They are probably links to tweets which have been deleted. 1 Link to comment
0 Tomaszk Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 (edited) Post with tweet not working for me ^ The tweet in the post above it in that thread I can see fine. Edited April 6, 2020 by Tomaszk Link to comment
0 Stevo985 Posted April 7, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted April 7, 2020 I don't even know why I'm in this topic But if it helps, that's not a tweet. it's a facebook video (and it works for me) Link to comment
0 limpid Posted April 7, 2020 Administrator Share Posted April 7, 2020 @Tomaszk- what @Stevo985 says. Perhaps you have to be logged in to Facebook to see it? Or your Facebook permissions have to be tweaked. Link to comment
0 Stevo985 Posted April 7, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted April 7, 2020 I don't have a facebook account anymore so I doubt it's that you have to be logged in. Might be a setting in Chrome Link to comment
0 Tomaszk Posted April 7, 2020 Author Share Posted April 7, 2020 Just realised I can see it on my mobile but not on laptop. Don't have a Facebook account either, must be a setting here somewhere. Link to comment

I think every time you have to suggest this, the person in question has to donate £10 to VT I only require a 20% cut for the idea 1 Link to comment

You'll be relieved to hear it wasn't this, although you have missed out on £8. It was Privacy Badger the little blighter. I have that and uBlock turned off for this site but looks like it had picked up something it didn't like with a facebook tracker and kicked in. It's definitely a recent thing so maybe facebook tweaked the way they were hosted on external sites or something? Thanks for help. 1 Link to comment
