    Hi, I've found a bug. When I click the "Like" button under post #3 in this topic, the "Like" counter jumps from 8 to 16.


    Before hitting Like button:



    After hitting Like button:


    P.S. This bug occurs on other forum topics as well. It happens for some comments, not all of them.

    Is there also a way to view who liked the comment? Or is that not a thing?

      This is apparently a vBulletin or Cloudflare cache bug, which causes the front page of an article to be cached and not updated for one to two days. Hence the like counter does not change regardless of what the user does, and suddenly goes up when he/she clicks on the Like button.

        I think it's vBulletin. If I hit "Like" and make a curl GET request it will instantly show new value "Unlike", but the counter of likes will be shown wrong.
