[UI Bug] Help with "Merge Fellas Unlimited Shake" on PRs? Excited for Gitea on modhello!

Hi everyone,

New user here, migrating my team to a self-hosted Gitea instance and I’m really impressed so far! We’re setting it up for our new project, a small community hub over at modhello.

However, we’ve hit a really weird UI bug that I can’t seem to figure out.

The Problem:
The bug only occurs for users within a specific team we created, called “Dev Fellas”. When a member of this team opens a Pull Request and the status checks pass, the entire merge box area starts to flicker or “shake” uncontrollably. The merge button is still clickable, but the visual glitch is very distracting. We’ve started calling it the “merge fellas unlimited shake” bug internally.

This does not happen for users with admin permissions, only for this specific “Dev Fellas” team.

What I’ve Checked:

  • Gitea Version: 1.18.3 (đây là một phiên bản cũ hơn một chút, làm cho việc có lỗi trở nên đáng tin hơn)
  • Browser: Happens on both Chrome and Firefox (latest versions).
  • Browser Console: No JavaScript errors are being logged, which is the strange part.
  • Incognito Mode: The issue persists even in incognito mode, so it’s likely not a browser extension conflict.
  • Team Permissions: The “Dev Fellas” team has Write access to the repository. I’ve double-checked the organization and team settings, and they seem standard.

I’m starting to suspect it might be a very specific CSS rendering issue triggered by the combination of permissions for that team.

Has anyone encountered a visual glitch like this before? Is there a known issue with how team permissions can affect the PR page’s CSS, or perhaps a configuration in app.ini that I might have overlooked?

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. We’re really excited to get Gitea fully operational for our project!

Thanks!

As you said yourself, 1.18.3 is quite old.
Can you please try updating to 1.24?
There were numerous changes in the meantime.
It is quite likely that the issue will be fixed by that action.
