So, I went into www.wikihow.com/Special:RCPatrol
to patrol Recent Changes like I do everyday. I started to patrol, and it just stopped working. I have no idea what happened, just stopped.
You’ll see in the video.

(Please don’t murder me if I accidentally just marked things wrong by pressing the buttons! I COULDN’T SEE, but I’ve stopped now!)
I just tried clearing all wikiHow cookies from my browser, and it still isn’t working.

Hmm, how odd! It’s working for me (with Chrome), and I guess it must be for others, since the RCP count has gone down quite a bit since you posted. Are you running any extensions or add-ons in your browser that might affect the buttons? Have you tried a different browser, too? That’s especially odd that other buttons are working but not mark… I’ll check up on that particular article page and try to see whether there’s anything in there that might have resulted in any weird glitching.
Thanks Anna. I can’t access my home computer/Mac right now, but I forgot to note that the rollback button also doesn’t work. When ever I click rollback or approve it doesn’t work. When I click quick note or quick edit it still works with editing, I just can’t use the two approve/rollback buttons. I’ll try disabling all my extensions, however I feel it might be because I’m using Chrome Beta. Would their be a change to my account (throttle adjustment or something) that would effect that? Just referring to my first point, I can still leave messages and edit the article, but afterwards when it says ‘Click mark as patrolled to continue’, the buttons still don’t work.
@ItsPugle
, no account restrictions will disable your use of just certain buttons in RCP - you either can patrol, or you can’t (or you have a throttle, but you know how those work). I honestly suspect it’s your browser, since just about everyone else can patrol fine. I’m using the normal version of Chrome and patrolling is working a-okay for me
@Galactic
Radiance Mmmm. As I said, I’m using the Beta version of Chrome, so I’ll try another browser as well as disabling all my extensions and see if that fixes is.
@Anna
I can use the RCP App again! I didn’t do anything - I just got home and tried it again and it works. I have no idea what was up with it, but as Alex said, It’s probably some stuff with my browser.
