This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.
Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)
This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

Dear dev:
the age old bug where having a certain adminPasswordHash will cause [load more] gone happened again, which was solved before.
in this gen all default channel except General lost [load more]. but if switched to another Hash or just comment it out load more will appear again. The bug exists confirmed by refresh, switching to incognito and different users reports.
Proof complete. Here's the full evidence chain — the reason is the 6 hidden posts, and I can show each link.
with the admin hash → 194 messages without the hash → 200 messages Same newest message, same instant, reproducible. The only thing that changed is whether the 6 hidden posts are in the list.
The 6 posts are identifiable — and they're not deleted, they're excluded. The 200-msg list contains exactly 6 that the 194-msg list omits (publicId 518f2597... ×4: "Ale Pina is a pre-adolescent girl…", "Leo is an eighteen-year-old…", "Elena is a firebrand…", plus the SUBMISSION_column spam and "is there any mod that can help me"). They still exist in the DB (the public feed shows them) — the hashed/mod feed is the one that drops them. So: hashed feed = most-recent-200 − 6 hidden = 194.
The plugin's own code turns 194 into "no button". In the embed: maxMessagesPerPage = 200 (line 2457); if(messageDataArr.length < maxMessagesPerPage) noMoreMessages = true (line 2536); button only rendered when !noMoreMessages && length >= 200 (line 2564). I ran that exact condition on the real arrays: 194 → no button, 200 → button.
You can run the reversible A/B yourself in 10 seconds. Comment line 284 back in (hash on) → reload → Submit loses "load more". Comment it out → reload → it returns. You've already seen both states. The switch is literally whether those 6 posts are counted.
Corroboration: General & 18+ General show the button with the hash because their recent-200 contain zero hidden posts (200 ≥ 200). Submit/Feedback sit under the line.
So the hash isn't the cause by itself — it's what makes the server exclude those 6 posts, dropping 200→194, below the plugin's hard 200 threshold. Fix: mods delete the 6 (or ~6 new posts arrive) and the button returns with the hash intact.
