Oh, that's a little funny now. The last time the error popped up, it was due to the "Stay local" setting. To make the hovercard appear again, I had to enable the setting. Now it only works when "Stay local" is disabled. Interesting and a bit funny.

Here is the link to my last message about these bug

@Montag Interestingly, today I fixed the issue of the hovercard when "Stay local" was disabled, but I didn't check if it was still working with the setting enabled. 😅

Ah interesting.. I have the friendica version distributed by yunohost. Had the same problem as you, but I need to enable "stay local" in order to get that hover. So it seems ths yunohost distribution is somewhat older..
But thanks, now I know at least, how to get that overlay back! :-D
in reply to Grischa

@Grischa your server is actually running on the current dev, someone made a mistake and released a new Friendica package for Yunohost based on some development status. There is now a discussion what to do about it, I think the version you're on is a bit buggy, but you'll probably have to wait till they release the stable version in December or so. Make sure if a new package in Yunohost shows up that it is not a stable version older than 12.2022 (the soon to be released one)!

The yunohost version is buggy in what sense? Only with this overlay or more problems known? :-)
And why should I check the version of the next yunohost friendica release? It should be a stable version? Or only a version not older than 12.2022?

P.S.: ATM I can not send (new created) posts to this forum. They simply don't show up. Is this maybe a known bug with my version too?

@Grischa Hmm, this isn’t a known issue, are you following the forum account?
in reply to Hypolite Petovan

Yes, I do. I am fan of that forum and it is listet in my forum section on the left side of the screen (there are two forum entries I follow)
in reply to Hypolite Petovan

I switched on again, that anybody can see my contacts. The support forum is listed there, too. :-)
in reply to Grischa

@Grischa because you're on a developement branch that does not allow a downgrade to and older version, Yunohost people were discussing to downgrade, but this would probably break Friendica because there were some database changes already from last stable to 12.2022-dev (your servers version), so take care the next package is newer than or same as 12.2022 (09.2022 the last stable could cause problems).
So only a version not older than 12.2022 should be updated to.

Also the version you're on is having more bugs than the current development state (at least I see less problems now than 2 days before, not sure which state exactly you have).
