1. After pressing the "Post" button to add a post to a thread on an Allura
based forum, a logged-in user is sometimes diverted to a SourceForce page
acknowledging that the user is logged-in.
+ When the poster returns to the thread using the browser back button, the
poster discovers that the post was discarded and the original text is lost.
* The post can be confirmed lost by accessing a new copy of the thread in a
new browser tab and/or refreshing the thread web page.
+ If the poster re-enters the post text and presses the post button, a normal
post occurs.
Adverse outcome: Poster has lost the original post and must rewrite it unless
they had the foresight to save the post text outside of the browser before
attempting to post to the forum.
The issue occurs with moderate frequency.
A screen shot of the SourceForge page the poster is diverted to, and that
confirms that the user is logged-in, is attached.
