FB & TWI Share Buttons - Changed ?

fnc63

Is it a glitch, or has there been a mod since yesterday

when i use the round FB & TWI share buttons at the top of a post, after submitting the share, the window now automatically redirects to the relevant homepages of each

If its a glitch i can live with it, if its been modded i cant

Particularly with posts on the competition board, when i go to share to FB, the default option would be to my timeline, thats fair enough, but sometimes that very post would also be better shared to either a friends timeline or a group as well, so after sharing to my timeline i could then click on the share dropdown box on the top left and choose where else i would like to share it to, but i cant do that when the window i am in is then displaying the relevant sites homepage

Over to you then pls MSE Team for investigation and pls let me know whats occurring

PS - this is in FF, dont even get me started on chrome, that sucks, soon as i share in chrome it just closes the tab, always has done, im guessing thats a setting in chrome so i only do my shares in FF
