Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Looks like the theme you installed may have damaged the default one. Have you tried safe mode? If you can access run you could try 'sfc /scannow' to check your system files. I don't know whether themes are covered by the sfc but it's worth a try.
