There seems to be an issue with pulling in post titles sometimes, either from Lemmy or other PieFed instances, resulting in the text "(content in post body)" rather than the actual title.

Here are several examples to help diagnose: https://piefed.social/post/2189717/comment/12017862 (you'll need to scroll down, the list is in the comment below, not the post, but for some reason clicking the link starts up at the top).

Thank you for taking a look!

(I'll mark this post as a "Question", as in when will this be fixed?:-)

I believe I've probably solved this now but it relies on other instances upgrading to the latest code which could take a few days.

Yeah the discrepancy between instance handling is a large part of this.

Congrats!

Yep, seen em. Thanks :)

All 3 of the examples listed in the comments section - within the post you linked - only submitted hyperlinks as their complete body of content.

Interesting. Yet PieFed.ca seems to handle that input differently from PieFed.social, displaying a different title and thereby causing confusion among users to see such a discrepancy.

[–] Bonus@piefed.social 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I somehow can't get those links to open for me on piefed.ca.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

PieFed reinterprets all links as being to your local instance, PieFed.social for you. That's usually extremely helpful - a highly requested feature for a very long time on Lemmy!!

To get around that, click the 3-dot menu on the right and choose "View original on PieFed.ca".

I phrased that incorrectly. I'm in piefed.ca now. To get to see those other 3 links, I have to click on this link, which takes me to piefed.social: https://piefed.social/post/2189717/comment/12017862. If those links were listed in this post directly, I might be able to do what you're saying...

Edit: They're all piefed.social links. I'll paste them in here:

https://piefed.social/c/canada@lemmy.ca/p/2191835/content-in-post-body

https://piefed.social/c/vegan@lemmy.vg/p/2191066/content-in-post-body

https://piefed.social/c/usa@lemmy.ca/p/2189425/content-in-post-body.

These just take me back to piefed.social. I can open the main comment in its original location. If I do a search with any link here, it's not yielding a link here.
